Karl-Anthony Towns joins Kevin Garnett (2003-04) as the only Timberwolves to go total 200 points and 100 rebounds in a playoff run - Спорт
Big props to the WOLVES for not giving up and still dethroned the Champs. This series felt like an NBA finals matchup
We can read the WOLVES without HIGHLIGHT
My cousin said the same thing it felt like an NBA Finals match up😂💯👌🏽
@@velipulla3936 Nah ALL CAPS 2️⃣ WORDS 🤦🏻♂️ (rookie)
Agree
Thats for beating the Sonics in 5 in 93-94! Thankyou Minnesota!
This was probably one of the most impressive comebacks in a Game 7 that I've ever seen in my life. The Wolves were down by 20 in the 2nd half against the defending champions on the road.
True against a terrific team. As a Lakers fan ,I am most impressed and very glad. Should be some series with the Mavs. The games get so intense now one key injury could be the difference.
Well, this is the ONLY game in NBA history to be down that much at the half, and come back to win it against the defending champs, and to do it in their house.
Yeah, we were down by like 21 at one point, biggest comeback was 11. So… yeah! 😂
Blowing a 20 point lead in a game 7 at home is wicked
Soon as he said what would kill you is a offensive rebound Kat comes in from the clouds and puts it back in 😂
So fitting
Yeah that shit was *chef’s kiss*
EVERY player had a momentum-changing play. Really a team effort. Salute Wolves
💯💯
Ant: "not gonna lie they had us in the first half"
THAT STATEMENT HAS NEVER BEEN MORE TRUE LMAO
The 6th man n Goldberg and the dude hit3 -3$ were the hiden heroes
When Gobert hit that fadeaway i knew it was over 😅
Fr when Gobert is hitting jump shots you know you are gonna lose
That was the dagger!
Bro hit approximately none of those during his time in Utah 😂
Fax
Somebody said after game 5 “Joker is dunking, this series is over.”
No, when GOBERT is hitting clutch jump shots and FTs, your series is over 😂
Don't compare Gobert and Jokic.
@@seadkurbasic9726 facts. Because Gobert is advancing in the WCF and Jokic on a flight to his horses 😂
If you blow a 20 point lead at home you do not deserve to win. I've been pulling for the Nuggets all playoffs and making my voice heard, but that's the truth. They did not deserve to move on, while the Timberwolves did.
I can't point to bad officiating, flopping, or any kind of shenanigans. It was just great defense and a strong, clean team effort that brought Minnesota back, while Denver capitulated.
Much respect, Minnesota.👏
Wolves knew what they needed to do and they delivered!
Rip nuggets fans and all their bandwagons 🤣 jokic isn't Thanos. Real mvp luka is left 💪 go play with your horses jokic
@@colewrld901fr Nuggets fans gonna disappear like they did before last year😂 I like in Aurora on east side of Denver there was more Lakers fans here than Nuggets fan until last year💀
@@colewrld901jokic got exposed if the lakers have howard they will not going to win against Lakers
Don’t put Dwight Howard and Jolie in the same sentence ever again
Jokic *
This is the game that can earn respect for the wolves and give them credit for defeating the champ
Jokic can finally get back to his horses. I'm so happy for him
Refs were trying so hard for Denver with those calls and TWolves still pulled thru 💪🏿
Refs help nuggets to win but sorry champ are out
No one says no to Minnesota!
Refs + Reggie Miller
Facts Ant 🐜 got fouled on a drive by KCP no call then next play Denver gets a moving screen call but it was super weak especially for a game 7 and Joker got a BS foul call on his missed fade away on KAT SMDH ref's were trying hard frfr
@@melvinpowelljr.3368 I think the call on the moving screen is the 6th of Gobert forcing him out at 3.30 on the clock.
They can win the finals. The confidence from beating the defending champs gives them a major boost.
Mavs in 6
@@irvingzeistman9828delusion.
Minnesota in 5
What just happened, even Gobert was hitting crazy shots
I can’t imagine how frustrated the fans of the nuggets were when twolves came back from a 20 point lead. I wish the timberwolves the best with the rest of the playoffs.
Timberwolves with 6 players in double figures vs Nuggets with only 2. That's your game, no shot making from Gordon/MPJ/KCP or the bench.
- Edwards was terrible offensively, but the Wolves got at least 5-6 threes off his penetration and he stayed locked in defensively.
- McDaniels shot the hell out of the ball the last two games on top of All-Defense play.
- Gobert got the Nuggets in foul trouble in the 3rd and 4th quarters. AND THAT FADEAWAY WTF XD
- Towns was the most stable offensive player all night and guarded Jokic well all series.
- Naz being able to replace Towns's production in the 4th quarter is a crazy advantage. They just replace one rebounding defensive stretch big with another.
I was watching the whole time.
Thought it was over by the half seein the gap get bigger and bigger. I ain’t got no words to say anymore. DAMN
Murray: me and Slokic are the best duo in the NBA
🐜 & 🐱: Enjoy Galveston
Right. Now if this happened to Embiid he would get killed for it. Let’s keep the same energy for Jokic
Stop it , embiid ain’t even sniff a conference finals
@@irvingzeistman9828yea because that’s what it’s all about. Making it to the conference finals😂😂😂😂 Enjoy Galveston with your Turkey Nuggets
They won the championship last year
@@revealingtruth3329Embid is a joke.
Who else is watching 3:30-3:48 over and over again? Such a hype moment
The Timberwolves won despite the refs. ANT got mauled, no call. KAT did not touch anything, foul on Jokic. Jokic flopped, he gets free throws, Gobert fouled out. Yet The Twolves still won. BALL DON'T LIE!!!
Wolves beat the defending champs 3 times on their home court!!! Go wolves!!!!!
I don’t ever wanna hear any KAT slander again
Had a good feeling when Gobert hit that fade
Naz Reid and KAT are the GOATS for this game. The next seed is going to be fun.
Rget suppose to step up because Denver smartly was not gonna allow Ant to control the game.
Don't forget Jaden McDaniels
Yet people are blowing ANTs cock Like he won the game somehow
This was an insane game
This was a good series nd one hell of a final series game
Gobert literally turned into Jokic on the turn around fade away lmao 2:59
Gave him a taste of his own medicine.
They have Jokic but we have Jaden McDaniels 🫣
Celtics fan here… so happy I watched this game. Huge props to the Wolves.
What a comeback to beat the defending champs on their home court!!
Celtics vs Wolves finals💪🏼
The Pacers gonna upset you..
@@rosramos5167 okay bro
@@rosramos5167😂😂😂
After 20 years it happened again. Its true..History repeats itself..
What a comeback! 🔥
That Anthony Edward’s is pretty, pretty, pretty good.
But he wasnt even top 3 player in his team last 2 games. Why u dont say Daniels or towns?
@@jedrusnowak3317because the first 5 games exist?
@@universalplayz7496 i get it but i respond to people whoa actually believe that he won the game.
@@jedrusnowak3317 I mean his dagger 3 did seal the coffin for the nuggets and he still played amazing defense so it’s not like he was absent
@@jedrusnowak3317Basketball is team sport. No one guy can win a game. Not even the great Jordan. It take a whole team effort. Edwards provided his defense, made timely shots and was definitely one of their main leaders through sheer will and determination.
Miller: What will kill you is an offensive rebound right now…
KAT: hold my beer
😂 good one
This is MINNEAPOLIS MIRACLE Number THREE!
I dont live in the US but what is the number 1 and 2?
@@ivanott7196 Vikings defeating the Saints on the last seconds in the playoffs, then in 2022 they came back against the Indianapolis Colts
Jokic ad before this is diabolical 😂
When I saw that Gobert shot @2:52,I knew the basketball gods were smiling on the Wolves this time around.
Such a great series. Props to both teams.
this was a goodie
20 point comeback on the road against the defending champs and 3 time MVP is crazy
That 45 PT loss the other day did them in... They were left too demoralized to finish the job. Congrats T Wolves.
I wanted Shai in the finals, but realistically though Denver would repeat, but my other alternative fantasy was Ant and the Wolves.
So it will be Luka vs Ant!
3:46 announcer called what knocked out the Denver. KAT delivered it.
Looked like an accidental alley oop. Beautiful.
That's Reggie Miller...he knows the game baby
"Announcer" lol
This will go down as one of the best game 7s in history. Anthony Edwards delivered his promise when he said so.
Masterclass performance and win by the Wolves!! 👏👏👏👏👏👏
watching a 22 year old boy destroy his opponents and winning the championship.❤
Was not exactly classy in the win.... Sportsmanship is very important, being humble is the sign of a truly great character....
@@billprendgergast8976 you're right but this kid's energy is different
Man.. I was thinking the same thing😂
He is an insane talent...Possibly better than Jordan at that age.But Jordan was quite majestic in both defeat and victory Detroit, New York and Cleveland were screaming for his blood and got humbled by his give everything performance....Edwards iis only young and inexperienced in the realms of a megastar...I hope he stays grounded and we get to enjoy him for many years.
He will get humbled next round, karma will get him for acting like a douche
Wolf pack, wolf pack, wolf pack !!! Wild wild wolves !!!
When those shots before the shot clock expires from Gobert and Conley went in, you know that they are going to win. Those are shots made from heaven.
Our best is THE best
Ant-Man is 8 wins a way from a championship. Imagine if he actually wins one this season. 😱.
Why everyone say ant? He was carried by his team
@@jedrusnowak3317the same guy that was dropping 30+ pieces the first 5 game of this series?
While playing great defense?
Change the title to 3 time mvp chokes a game 7, 20 point lead
Or fails to get enough BS foul calls by flopping. The clown just falls down and gets a whistle
I’m not a nuggets fan, but if you combine how many points Murray and Jokic had, it would be 69. I would blame MPJ, and EVERY single other player for this loss. It’s a team game, EVERYONE needs to perform well, atleast 10-20+ points!
Great choke job by denver 😂
“… after being blown out by 45 in Game 6”
@@TrainsandTrucksProductionswe don’t want to hear that shit. Basketball is a sport where one man can take over a whole game. 3x mvp in his prime blowing a lead like that, no excuses. Not to mention they got stomped out in game 6. Now Chokic can go back to Serbia and fondle his horses. And that old drunk Mike Malone can fade back into obscurity. God is good.
Great Game🏀
what a finish
They Came the fought they conquered 🐺
Only to lose to Dallas
Jordan Edwards 🔥
Dude he was playing ass this game xd
@@jedrusnowak3317they see highlights and overlook he shot abysmal 25%.
Stop it
Jokic wanted to go back to those horses after game 6 😂
Classic beautiful basketball
I thought this game is now in favor to nuggets but props to the wolves defense in 2nd half that made the comeback possible
8 more 🐺🔒
The Nuggets offense runs exclusively through 2 people only - Jokic and Murray. Both are dead tired by the 3rd Q - being defended straight up by the Wolves start of the 3rd stalled the offense to a halt. Best defensive adjustment of the series.
Gobert stepped up big ! Draymond cannot relate
didn’t draymond drop 30 on lebron in the finals? calm down rudy hasn’t even made a finals appearance 😂
You can feel the bench energy when the second half started. They knew its possible after they started scoring there. And Reid played a hell of a game especially in the 4th!
What A Incredible Comeback For The Timberwolves
Timberwolves are my pick to reach the finals this year, they just have that clutch factor to them.
2:50 Tim Duncan spirit invoked
Ant Man was 6/24 yet they still won. Denver's best two Players scored over 30 points each and the T-Wolves still won. TEAMS win GAMES, not ONE Person.
Jokic Goin To His Horses 🐎👋
I think he is happier than t wolves actually
2 years ago I saw something in naz reid and I'm proud to see him at this level today
You know when Gobert made that Wemby kind of shot at @3:01 that it’s over for the nuggets 🤣🙌
Is this the true French Power?
*Last 2 quarters:
C1: "Scores..."
C2: "Wooooow...."
C1: "OMG!"
C2: "Uhhhhh WOW!"
Nice to see the wolves fans travel to support their team,,,
When Gobert made that fadeaway you knew it was over
That’s why we love basketball
Nuggets fans went ftom talking mad crap to getting records broke on them 😂
Look at how loud the Wolves fans are in Denver. You can’t even tell the Wolves are the away team at times.
This WAS the NBA finals 🏆
Damn biggest comeback in game 7 history
Exited for wolves - mavs
They dont give McDaniels enough credit hes the reason for winning.
What a great achievement by these young wolves team.. beating the Champs on their home floor three times in this series.. they are now clearly the faves to win the title considering that the Nuggets is a more dominant team compared to the Mavs and the Celtics (who have been beating injury-riddled teams)..
Love seeing Connolly stalking up to half court for the steal @3:30 for a demoralizing steal leading to Edwards snapping the net from 3. Wolves just wanted it more
Bless UP 971
Wolves fans have been very noticeable at away games this playoffs but i Guarantee you won't see that many away fans at target center. Ever
2:48 I was jumping around the house when this play happened
Its a total team effort for the Wolves both offense and defense
Go Wolves!!! O lobo vai comer🐺🐺
I guess the Denver crowd yelling “Defense” for two quarters didn’t really help much 🤷♂️
Ant is the next MJ
Stop it
Early release for Joker to watch his horses
He must have said Bye Bye to the Defending Champions
While he was shooting not that good this game. His team carried him
saying bye bye with 6/24 😅
Antman locked Jamal in the 2nd half
KAT was carrying Twolves offense
Jaden and Conley made big shots from the 3
Reid was taking over in the 4th
THIS WAS SUCH A SCARY BUT GOOD GAME - they had us in the first half ahahhah
Love to see murray getting humbled 🤣
When they got it 12 I felt the twitch. But then this graphic came up at 0:46 I said damn Denver in SERIOUS trouble.
You can hear edwards say shoot it to Gobert on the turnaround 2:59
I really wanted Edward to dunk on the joker so bad
The wolves were just hungrier, denver played like the expected them to give up after the 20 point lead
3:26 TWolves bench so hype with that Naz Reid dunk
It's not how you start but it's how you finish. I haven't seen anything like this since Michael Jordan Chicago Bulls days in the 90's. Shout out to MJ's missing son Anthony Edwards.
Congrats Wolves!🔥Fab series win!💯🎉🔥 #StyUPall_Morethanagame_More2life_SpreadGodsLoveNotHate💜🙏🏾🌍
