Typical Minnesota sports fashion, you fold during crunch time.

How do you give up two 25 point leads?

After the game Ja was asked… “how did it feel to get the last laugh?” Ja responds, “Good…I’m disrespectful, just like they disrespectful.”

Yeah, everyone has been pushing the Donovan Mitchell to NY notion
Feels like anytime there is a superstar that's on the move the Knicks are automatically linked. I'm not going to rehash the Knicks argument, because I don't need @dabears70 going after me on twitter as well.

ATLANTA - Game three between the Atlanta Hawks and the Miami Heat has been delayed after authorities say they found a suspicious package near State Farm Arena. Fans were not being allowed into the arena for about an hour before the scheduled ripoff at 7 p.m.

Offensively he's outplaying Morant in this series.

Grizz lost a tough one, though I have little to doubt that Memphis doesn't eventually win the series, but certainly isn't so easy for them.

The Wolves are a fascinating team to watch. They're so talented, but they're also so inconsistent and play such dumb basketball.

I have no rooting interest in this series, but I keep yelling at the TV with how stupid the Wolves are at times. I feel like Memphis isn't even contributing to many of their mistakes... A lot of them are self-inflicted. The bad shots, awful passes, lack of situational awareness, & dumb fouls.. it's honestly a surprise this series is tied at 2. It's even more shocking to think that they should have been up 3-1.

I still think Memphis wins, though.

Also... So happy to see the Nets struggling.

how it FEELS in this moment - BOS vs. GS in the Finals.

Absolutely. Ja has played terrible this series. If Ja is Ja, this series is probably already over.

that said, the wolves were a bad draw for the grizzlies. They match up well with the grizz, and have two legit stars in KAT and Edwards. The wolves were also #10 in net rating this season, so not exactly what you would expect to get from a #7 seed

Man….the 8th seeded Pels tie the series against the best team in the league…meanwhile, the Bulls get bitch slapped and lose by a combined 50+ points at home over the the past two games. Fucking embarrassing

A steal like that one on CP3 wouldn't have been out of character for this Bulls team early on.

Which begs the question WTF HAPPENED TO THIS TEAM?

They got figured out and BD can’t adjust. Losing Lonzo obviously hurt…but they still got punked by the better teams with him. They’re soft inside…they’re soft on the perimeter and they have no dog in them. Their early success was fools gold aided by a favorable schedule and new pieces with no tape for opposing teams.
