"We lost last Year, And we been losing for 20 years" 😂😂😂 FACTS KAT
wasn't wrong. Coming from here in MN myself. I remember 20 years ago. Especially when the spurs would shoot 3's all the time. lol
Lmaoo hilarious
but that voice what got me for real
@@magallaneswennnethaneill.162 Almost sounded like a slightly deeper Chris Tucker 🤣
@magallaneswennnethaneill.162 you right it's the delivery of the joke, it was like he was doing a standup
Mike Malone blew that press conference the same way his team blew that 20 pt lead. 😂
easy to be a good coach when you win, now we see whatsup
Mike Malone is who everyone think Mike Budenholzer is
Mike "Whos ur daddy now" Malone
@@shawnchia3611 this was said to the lakers which they bounced AGAIN. Probably a Laker fan comment 😂😂 this was between the two best teams not the lakers 😂😂😂
He Was Talking All Crazy About the LAL Now They Face Big LineUp He All In His Feelings now talking that talk but gotta talk that walk. 😅
Mike Malone needs to keep that same energy, he was talking real spicy all summer and throughout the season. Now they crapped the bed and it’s a “stupid question” 😂😂😂
100,000 👏
I agree now cant man up and take the L
Agreed
How is he suppose to react to losing? 😂
Facts. Nuggets fans trying to make excuses for that are down hella bad. That was pathetic 😂
“How much more you want us to lose? We been losing for the last 20 years” 😭😭😭😭 well that’s true 😂😂
That was a genuine response. Some of those reporters ask obscure questions.. 😂
@@lyrikalinyoswiminpoonope some of them are called click bait questions. They’re trained to ask that in the hope of getting a wild response.
@@lyrikalinyoswiminpoo na fr 😂 I can’t remember the last time I seen the wolves actually win something and he come with that lol
Nuggets were talking crazy last off season and Murray lost his cool in game 2. This collapse was so welcoming
inevitable really
Meanwhile Ant talking crazy every single game in this playoffs like he already won sth when he's not 😂
@@nor-in5kj What has Ant said that you think is crazy?
I’m glad for 🐜 man, he and his team took down the chumps. Now enjoy the next round 💪
So happy nuggets lost
Someone in the comments said Rudy was like a monstar stealing Jokic fadeaway💀.
He’s the tall, blue Monstar 😂
I mean he ain't wrong tho 😂
Nah he stole MJ's skills with that layup & fade away
Seeing the interview from Mike Malone shift to Ant and KAT is pure gold 😂😂
Gotta love Ant and Kat man.. those 2 funny af together 😂
Ant is DIFFERENT. Had a terrible game but showed up when it mattered most. Shout out to his team for doing the heavy lifting.
Wont be able to do that against the Mavs😂
@@markez1799 Mavs are no match for Twolves, already looking for a Twolves and Boston Finals 💯
@@xiffy1881bruh they walk down OKC, its a matter of match up i love this underdog story but i got wolves also in 6 and win it all against boston in 7 games
He didn't have a terrible game, yall stay focused on fg percentage. Take him out the game they don't win
@@kbthegoat824 still a terrible game by his standard, particularly in the first half when he was just wasting the clock waiting for the double team to get to him and lazily pass the ball out of the double team
Naz Reid was HUGE for them. What a hard worker he is! He play hard on both ends of the ball. Jokic was frustrated& did ALOT of pushing, bumping but to no avail.
That Minnesota frontline is huge, extra lengthy and athletic..
Then the wings are all 6'8 and over and can defend straight up..
Jokic got worn out in the 2nd half, he was gassed by the 4th...
Denver needs to upgrade its bench big time..
@@BLACK_MikeHammer Only two seasons ago, everyone said big man era was over. Every team playing small ball to be like the Warriors
@@tyrellcobb4665 True that!!
But in way despite the size of some of these teams who want to play like the GSW, most of the wings and bigs can shoot the 3, like Reid, KAT, Myles Turner, Siakam..
That's the trend now, stretching the floor..
@@BLACK_MikeHammer Yeah, and now every big trying to be a floor general too thanks to Jokic 😂
As a wolves fan I still haven’t slept 😂
I'm the same 😂 when it over I just laughed and laughed. I've watched this franchise lose since I was a child. When ant hit that 3 to put them up 10 I was like bro are they actually gonna do this? I'm still shocked
this the year boys
Heck I’m a Grizzlies fan. I hope to see this team go far and get Conley a chip. Happy for yall man
One of the best nights ever
5 taking us there
Awww poor Mike Malone, cannot man up with a lose but acts tough after a win
exactly, cant take that L like a man
But what's the purpose of asking someone how they feel after losing? It's a waste of a question. I mean you've been preparing all night for the presser and all you got is, how does it feel after getting eliminated? 🫣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I bet his boss must be thinking long and hard about this journo's future😅.
@@siyabongakunene5052he a clown take the L like a man
@@siyabongakunene5052 Right. The journo could’ve asked HOW it happened, tactically, not “how do you feel?” This is what lazy journalists do. Crime reporters do this to families of victims all the time.
Terrible leadership.
Kat speaking for all MN fans 😂😂😂
The twolves play offense thru their defense. If you play clean offense against the wolves, you win. Issue is wolves make it nearly impossible to play clean. When shots dont fall and you turn it over, the wolves will jump on you. They won't win simply on better offense. That makes them so frustrating but so amazing to watch. Such a great series
Very similar to my Bulls in the 90s, defence creates offense but you need to get the right personnel to execute it, this is where the Wolves brain trust has done its job very well.
I feel these Wolves are ready but the audience is slowly catching up...
Such a perfect analysis of their game. They really a strong defensive team.
They play like
WOLVES
@@Drae-up9dbnumber 1 in the league this year they quite literally the best defensive team !
I love the fact that it's DEFENSE that is winning these games this postseason. Not just the Wolves, but everyone. This is what happens when the league actually allows players to play hard defense... we get one of the most exciting postseasons that we've had in years. I'm hopeful that with guys like ANT making statements as 2 way players that more guys will start putting in more effort on both ends. After the All Star break the NBA has been 100x more exciting to watch. Hopefully they keep this up next year as well and don't revert back to the pre All Star break BS where a whistle is blown every other possession.
Yes I really hope they ref the playoffs the exact same way as the regular season
That way players are familiar with what they can and can’t get away with come playoff time in terms of physicality
Big props to Jokic for his sportsmanship at the presser. He gave all credit to the Wolves and it just such a great example of a good human being. Will always enjoy watching him and hope my Nuggets will learn to not live by the three next season. Get to the paint when they ain't dropping!!
Jokic is gentleman and class act.
While Ant talks a little too much.
He hasn't won anything yet 😂
@@nor-in5kjmeanwhile murray throwing tantrums, heating pads, towels, the game.

@@nor-in5kjnobody cares . Go cry about it
Murray could learn from Gru dude is such a whiny baby
"We lost last Year, And we been losing for 20 years" But the his voice got me
Been watching the twolves since 1989 when i was 10 years old. Now 44 amazing to finally see a championship contender team. So thankful! God bless the Minnesota Timberwolves!!
Ant had a bad offensive game, but he helped his team on other aspects of the game, especially on the defensive end. That's what the young players are missing nowadays, if their shots are not falling they immediately get disappointed not realizing that basketball is a lot of things other than scoring. Man, Minnesota means business this season.
I don't know the young man on the Wolves bench, but he was HYPED!!! Love it.
Josh Minot. That bench is hilarious. Very enthusiastic kids. Great culture and chemistry this year.
@@kyleamundson2544 completely agree. Every play they were so stoked. I love bench reactions...
wolves had quite a cheering section considering it's in denver
True!
Reminds me of all those NY FANS who chanted Brunson for MVP in Philly 1st round.
Ant after that 3 pointing at a fan “where you at!!? Where you at!?” 😂😂
Loved it!
I don’t ever wanna hear anyone say this dude better than Dwyane wade. Like what? Thats stupid. Rookie Dwyane wade was better than him. Look how Braun on Denver locked him up lol
@@redpillrichwell just stop watching basketball after a few years bro because he will eventually be better than Wade.
@@redpillrichhe had one bad offensive game and now he’s trash huh
@@triggatrey2112 Not trash, just not better than wade. Not even close
Jokic had 34pts, Murray had 35pts. If you read that stat line before the game, you would have said “oh Denver must win”. Excellent team effort by the Wolves.
That's a supposition
Lol the Nuggets game plan was literally give the ball to Murray or Jokic. Shi, might as well play 2 v 5
They needed MPJ or Gordon or KCP to step up
@@tyrellcobb4665 How can they step up when Murray & Jokic shooting EVERYTHING.
@@JonBernard41 I don't blame them. Jokic only shoots as a last resort when he can't find anybody to dish to. Credit that lock-down Minnesota defense for limiting his options and forcing him to shoot bad 3's all day.
Anyone complaining about the ratings going in the conference finals haven’t watch twolves all year. This a fun team to watch and obviously just the beginning clip of Ant and towns has so much charisma
I'm from Europe and love basketball i have to say NBA is so much exciting to watch qnd amazing athletes they got. I wish i lived there i would love going to these games
I LOVE malone being a salty baby in that post game hahaha you blew a 20 point lead at home to the wolves 😂😂😂😂 eat it
Mike Malone is the clown everyone thought mike Budenholzer was
@PresidentialRel exactly. The league is so full of guys that talk big while their up but act like babies when they lose. Then saying "my guys were tired my guys were this and that" blah blah bro lebron fricken James went to the finals playing into June for a DECADE straight and did he ever once complain about being tired? No. Malone is a baby and I loved every minute of that game
@@jimmyjohns7866 right I don't like front runners
Exactly. RIPiss Mikey
That Rudy fadeaway shot was so sick 😂
This series was roller coaster 🎢
Anthony Edward has a killa mentality. Dont let fg% dictate his game. Plays hard till the end with his heads up. Made great key defensive plays in second half to help bring his team back, made clutch shots when it counted, made guys have clean looks played hard till the end. Thats how you do it. Casuals will focus on 6/24 saying he had a terrible game.
He has the Silhouette of Kobe, what's great is he could expand on it more and be greater. That mentality has been missing for years now
@@leogaming4663 how did Jamal Murray hot start help him win this game? I can tell you how ant 6/24 helped him win this game 7. Completely shut Murray water off in the second half, that's one. Do u need more? When the game was within reach who were the ones making momentum shots and who were the ones missing? Who were getting key steals leading to dunk on the other ends. Who was taking the double and have guys like McDaniel and Conley knocking down open 3s? Keep focusing on 6/24, I focus on winning plays.
@@leogaming4663 ant man can shoot, he just shot poorly in "this game"
Ant man contributed in other ways, DEFENSE, timely assist and rbs. You can't say he didn't have a terrible offensive game, Ant man even said he was trash in the press conference. The use of casual here is off base. I remember when Kobe shot TERRIBLE in game 7 of the 2010 finals and his team helped pull him thru.
@@leogaming4663Bro, everyone including Michael Jordan and your mother, have had an off game from time to time... Anytime we see comments like this, we just know it's jealousy and hatred
Why Kat sound like Chris Tucker lol 🤣
😂😂😂
Exactly what I thought!
Way more girly than Chris Tucker lol
Bro sounds like 'Crismas" at a Diddy party 😂
Mike Malone has 5'2 energy.
So what kind of energy would he have if he was 6’2?

Absolutely incredible win by the Wolves! They played phenomenally well throughout the series. 👏👏👏👏👏👏
Lol kat and ant had me dying 😅😅😅😅😅
Im not even a timbs fan, but wouls love to see these guys win it all this year, such a great team of guys that definitely deserve it
Mike Malone is who everyone think mike Budenholzer is
I like Malone he has a real Passion for the game and he got that Edge to him
@@rallymurrah7186 he has that cry baby in him too😂
@@rallymurrah7186he's got that L in him 😂
@@rallymurrah7186 all he did was troll the Lakers but when he got annihilated he showed his true colors🗑️
Remember when the Gobert trade was the "WORSE" trade ever??? We have to stop being so quick to judge teams.
He was getting cooked by Jokic, the back up is who locked Jokic up. Fake DPOY can't guard, that's why Minn blew them out in game 1, he a liability fumbling, bumbling, get his shot blocked by 6'3" dudes. He is just tall. Check the tape..smh
@@fabriciobraga633 Gobert is a +/- +111 in these playoffs thus far. That's better than anyone. No he can't gaurd Jokic. No one can. Dikembe Mutombo won the DPOY in 2001 and then Shaq averaged 34 ppg on him in the Finals. Gobert found other ways to help the Wolves win. Gtfoh
“We been losing for 20years! Gotdamn!”😂😂😂😂
This is good for basketball. Congrats to the Timberwolves!
Jokic and Murray combined for 69 points, rest of Nuggets 21 points. Ant Edwards had an off night offensively, but the rest of the team came through big time.
Kat… “We lost last yeeeeeeaaar” 💅💅💅
Kat sooo zesty sometimes 🤣
KAT’s voice is fine, idk why people get on him for it.
The hood needed ant to win this series 🙏🏾
And the white hoods needed Mike Malone to win again as well , NOT!
But Ant didn’t win this series. KAT did
On citas🔥
What does the hood have to do with this?
@@yo3rdtier128it was a 7 game series
The Ant and KAT postgames remind me of the old Russ and KD ones
Defense and Team effort = Wolves
Goes to show:
1. Conley and Gobert better fit around Edwards than DMitch
2. Bruce Brown
3. Jokic the only untouchable
Jokic CHOKED A 20 PT LEAD. HE GET LEBRON TREATMENT
You sound stupid lol saying he choked when he and Murry played 2 on 6 I hate people like you for real
1. Kat 2. Never beat 50 win team 3. Correct
@@coreythomas3633Jovic can’t do everything, he played the entire game. The problem is the nuggets team is skin deep, and Murray is moody.
Great points
Kendrick Perkins was right on this take!!!
Perk predicted this 100%
He did
i aso predicted i said to my friends couple monthe ago that i think the way wolves playing this year wolves gonna win the chip my whole friend group was laughin at me look at me now
Humble pie doesn't taste good does it Mike Malone and the entitled Nuggets! Love it!
Let's go Ant and the T'Wolves!
As a nuggets fan Malone pissed me off. He made little to no adjustments in the 2nd half and then has a mini tantrum. Unreal.
This was KAT's best game of his career by far. Not sure why he doesn't do this consistently
How much we gotta lose? -Karl Towns
Good response from the coach. Show us this game matters to you.. simple as that
Game 7 between Twolves & Nuggets had some of each aspects of the preceding 6. Last night encapsulated the entire series. The TWolves put together a total team effort from everyone 😊🎉❤
I’ve never been more stoked for the rightful team coming out that bih wit the W💪🏽😤
Fun fact. ANT shot 6/24 in game 7 and still won. In the 2010 NBA Finals Kobe Bryant also shot 6/24 in game 7 and still won.
He was the best defensive player on the floor
2010 Finals game 7 was much more defensive game than this one. Pierce and Allen fg combined something like 8/29. KOBE Got like 23pt 15reb, yet we still hear many media give kobe bad rap about it. While the media give ANT all the love. I love ANT 's game but don't ever want to hear media dissing about kobe's game 7 ever again.
Who in the NBA has this kind of line-up for their Center and PF positions? 3 bigs, one of them is the DPOY, then the other 2 are stretch bigs who can put the ball in the basket and provide interior defense and rebounding as well.
And everybody still said Denver would win!😂
It’s not just about size, Windy. The Wolves have athletic two-way players. That’s the key to their effectiveness. One of those impressive defensive teams when they want to be.
As a Denver fan i can say well deserved win by Wolves. As a champion you cannot lose 3 home games ,you cannot lose 3 games by 30 or more points, you cannot play without bench players, etc etc.
Mike Malone needs to keep that energy from last year. His tears tastes good! 😂😂😂
So pathetic that nuggets fans didn't cheers the nuggets goodbye honestly others fanbases show me how special and loyal wolves fans are. Wolves fans have been at every road game deep. Also nuggets fans was talking very gross in the comments now they gone... fishing
Good point… more so Joker fanboys in the comments if you ask me because I highly doubt they were nuggets fans 10 years ago.
Nuggets fans 😂 what do you expect? Their championship was a first round win against the 7th seed 😂
Did I really just hear "the N...imberwolves" ? @2:07 man thought for half a sec that Nuggets won that game haha
They probably had nuggets written in the promoter 😂 I love seeing the nuggets lose the players and the couch needed this
But saying he was the Lakers daddy was all fun and games. Now they lose he’s in shock.
Nuggets announcer said that, not Mike Malone
The wolves are officially the Lakers grand daddy now
I love how they are giving excuses for Malone behaving like a baby 😂
Denver Coach BEEN TALKING MAD "ISH" FOREVER. Bro, you need to own it like you owned the success. NOBODY trying to deal with that attitude. Keep the same energy.
As a nuggets fan, the door is two steps to the left for Michael Malone.
Way to go Minnesota Timberwolves y’all deserve this victory
ONE WORD. Defence!!
I live in Charleston, South Carolina and I traveled to game 6 and watched game 7 in a Minneapolis hotel. I went to celebrate the life of my aunt who passed away. last time my dad watched a game was that 2004 season. my aunt is the person who went with him and bought the black throwback KG jersey. i got to wear it to my first Timberwolves game at 22 years old with pops. So symbolic and such a great healing experience being back in my home state after 12 years. #wolvesback
The third highest scorer for Denver was MPJ with 7 points on 3-12 shooting. Let me say that again THE THIRD HIGHEST SCORER FOR DENVER HAD 7 POINTS ON 3-12 SHOOTING. That right there lost them this series. Denver players outside of Jokic has been absolutely HORRID.
4:02 Aaron Gordon getting handled 😆 jokic in the back saying your on your own 😂
The rest of Denver team scored a total of 21 points. You can´t have a winning team with only two all stars. Denver the whole season had no bench. I see Dallas with their 2 centers giving resting time to each other, while Jokic had to basically play to whole game. What was DeAndre Jordan doing on the bench?
My guy, Nuggets took the Wolves to 7 games and they lost game 7 by a hair after being ahead 20. Dont pretend like the Nuggets got swept. And DeAndre Jordan shouldnt be on an NBA team at all. If you think at 35 years old he's a menace against the best defense in the league, you have not seen him play.
They did what the Knicks couldn't do at home, BEAST MODE WOLVES
Knicks were beat up physically
Ant won’t talk injuries, unlike others, but his back is jacked. They won with him being hurt. Hopefully these couple days help him get better.
How do you know his back is hurt?
@@DrunKaoHe fell multiple times on his back and had a number of games he had to go to the locker room. That’s why he would get subbed a lot in the first quarter. He’s just tougher and doesn’t make excuses!!

Mike Malone got a taste of how it is to be up 20 and be in the losing end just like LA lol
Yep! All we needed was Dlo to finally become a veteran & be constant like mike Conley.
They had three 7 footers to wear down Jokic. The Lakers had the same thing with Dwight. This series showed teams exactly what they need to do to neutralize Jokic.
It was cool to see Murray and Ant shake hands after the game. You dont want beef with a 22 yesr old superstar.
Yo Kat sounding crazy in that press conference
The Twolves are the GOAT
The Timberwolfs made the Denver Nuggets head coach humble himself 😂😂
That reporter questioning Ant and KAT was wildin’.
I love these guys calling out the media for their laziness 😂
"Stupid a** questions." 🤣🤣🤣 sir i 100% agree with u.
Denver blowing a 20 point lead isn't much of a shocker considering no lead is safe in this 3 point era of basketball..all it takes is a little stops here and there by the other team and their offense finding their range from the 3 point line..but in this game the wolves found their defensive identity just in time to regain belief in themselves that they could take down the champs and they did just that..
If Kat gets a ring before jimmy, that would be him and wiggins and that would be so hilarious
