    Minnesota could go down 0-2 at home if they don't get their shit together.

    Coach Kidd wants to challenge. He thinks the refs need glasses.

    Ya I didn’t like Edward’s passing up the last shot. He has to take that.

    Guessing that was the play to get it to Nas since he was hot all game.

    Euros have taken over the NBA. An all-euro team would be an all-american team easily.

    Doncic

    Sabonis
    Giannis
    Jokic

    And well, they need a SG, but the team would kick ass.

    It's the Blazers theme. All-international. They just need to draft a kid from Poland, and search the Sri Lanka region to complete their World Circuit.

    All this arguing about how Dame and Giannis were used poorly together.... Did y'all know Giannis was injured for the whole playoffs?

    He also finished 4th in MVP voting - while injured.

    Don't see how we can know if they were misused, for all we know if healthy they would've made the finals.

    the Bucks hired Doc Rivers. They finally admitted they're the Clippers of the East. They have the 1 ring for maximum awesomeness, but they're getting old and the league is getting faster.

    I think Minny is in the same spot that Denver was when we beat them in 2019. They’re young and they need experience. Next year they will be a real threat.
