I don't know why people are surprised. As a Wolves fan who watched over 50 games this year, we knew we were built to beat Denver. Last year, Denver also said MN was the toughest matchup.
Most people are casuals, if the media doesn’t tell them they don’t know
@@nydibs exactly, i was arguing with clippers fans all year. Anthony Edwards is better than anyone on the clippers. they didnt believe me because they live in their little bubble and only watch LA.
Minnesota never gets credit in any of their sports.
Ya, as a denver fan i put money on the t wolves to win the series before it started. Idk why the nuggets have been off since 2-3 weeks before the season ended, but the nuggets are off. They don't seem to have a plan going into the game - they just watch and see what the other team wants to do and then figures it out over the course of the game, which is fine against mid teams, but we keep getting so far behind. I wanna see us go out there with a plan and be in control of the game. This wait and react stuff isn't going to cut it in my opinion. Lets impose our will against the t wolves.
Anthony Edward's the heir apparent to the GOAT, Michael Jordan. The Denver Nuggets had no answer to the young phenom. He ran over, under, around & through the Denver Nuggets. What an awesome performance of all time!😊
reaching
@@jevonarmagh3101As a Twolves fan.. yes reaching. Kid is good no doubt but way too early on to say all time great performance. He can be that guy but plenty of years to play to get to that list.
LOVE LOVE THE DEFEAT OF DENVER-CANT WAIT FOR THEM TO GET SWEPT JUST LIKE THEY SENT MY LAKERS HOME-Taste of their own medicine
Ant was by far the best player on the court
23
Facts
This dude will change the nba
Since Kobe and Wade I've never seen someone tap into his inner Jordan like Anthony Edwards did.
This is a very cool thing that happened for the NBA, with the Minnesota T wolves winning.Small market team like the wolves, great thing to see.ANT MVP
I do think the Timberwolves were built specifically to beat the Denver Nuggets. The Gobert trade last year really confused me. Boy does it make sense now. The T-Wolves can throw Rudy, KAT, and Naz against Nikola Jokic. They might just wear him out and win the series in five or six games.
I have them in 6 games
LOVE LOVE THE DEFEAT OF DENVER-CANT WAIT FOR THEM TO GET SWEPT JUST LIKE THEY SENT MY LAKERS HOME-Taste of their own medicine
Ive been waiting for these for three decades since I was in high school since Garnett era its time for the wolves to win an NBA ring its now the best time 😊😊😊
ANT is the face of the NBA when LeBaby calls it quits. ANT is this generation's Jordan.
LeBrat should just go ahead and retire. He's had more head coaches than Madonna has lovers, and Laker Nation would rather give AD a chance to lead the team.
Hungry Wolves just ate the Nuggets for dinner.
😅
LOVE LOVE THE DEFEAT OF DENVER-CANT WAIT FOR THEM TO GET SWEPT JUST LIKE THEY SENT MY LAKERS HOME-Taste of their own medicine
Ya. I wanna see my nuggets come out with a plan and try imposing our will against the t-wolves. We keep watching and reacting and i fear it wont work against starving teams.
Great game!! Anthony Edwards is phenomenal 👏👏👏👏
We beat the nuggets, we beat the fans, we beat the refs... wolves in 4
Portland, JAMAICA in the Building!!! 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
As an impartial viewer the refs appeared pretty bias on their calls and missed calls. They need to do better in game 2 or be replaced. Didn’t change the result at least…the better team won.
Been like this all season. Yes kat is known for fould but it wasnt uncommon to have 2x free throws over us. Hell booker had 21 free throws in a single game
Did they really give a tech for a look??
@@SirJoCocchiyes smh
Edwards gets banged around on so many drives without a call. Maybe he'll get the Jordan calls as he plays longer
Joker feels AD's struggles rn. Ant is a combination of Kyrie and Lebron. The END of Nuggets era.
Ant looked like a cheerful Kobe on the court last night.
What made Michael Jordan unique wasn't just his vertical jump or mid range game and pretty much many players can replicate those attributes. Jordan had big hands that can palm a basketball from catching a rebound to ball fakes.
Ant will save the NBA along with guys like Jokic and Luka cant wait till Lecoach Killer retires
ANTMAN 💪🏀#5
Wolves in 4
The fadeaway clutch shot cements it...thats mj's kid
Some people doubt the Minnesota Timberwolves because they are young.l believe the T-Wovles will beat Denver
The next guy to be in the GOAT discussion: Antman!!
I haven’t watched a ton of nba games in years. I catch highlights, but that’s it. I was intrigued by the matchup and watched this one. Having watched prob 90% of MJ’s bulls games, I can definitely see some similarities in their style, intensity and athleticism. He has a long way to go, but he could be what people wanted Lebron to become.
I love his attitude
Refs were f'n horrible and ant still came on top!!!
Twolves in the finals
@@LatrellEdwards-kh8zq they beat Kevin Durant and Devin Booker they're going to win it
@@JAMES79HOWLETT I want the T-Wolve to win it all
With every team fouling, no team should ever shoot 8 more free throws!
I tried n tell em the way the nuggets played the lakers and was a close call everytime the wolves gonna whoop
First they doubt Wolves would beat Suns. Now they still doubt they beat Nuggets. When will these announcers wil learn? When?
🤫 let’s just keep it going. It’s working.
So let me explain, Minnesota will beat Nugget in game 4, then go ahead and beat the next 2 teams to win the Championship! Minnesota will come back next season and repeat the same process and come back again season after next and do it again! Make it make sense. 😂
They'll never learn. Go Wolves.😂😂😂
Yah I agree but maybe upto three rings only and I hope this wolves line up could stick together for a long time...
10:55 I like books. I identified a book this gent has on his shelf. When I look at bookshelves, I always gravitate towards the books that people put in Broad art mylar. "The Last Lion." 1983. Written by William Manchester. It's not a particularly rare book.
As a Harry Potter fan it was cool to see the novels
@@dazzypeters6793 You are killing my buzz.
Congratulations Minnesota but I wouldn't expect a sweep just yet.
I don't think anyone actually expects a sweep, just a fun thing to say. Series will go 6 or 7.
Good Luck Ant Man ...
Anthony Edwards --- Finals MVP 2024 @ MJ and Kobe mentality
Look like Jordan and play like Jordan but Jordan had a deeper lay up package at that age
Kobe tried to copy Jordan and did so very well ..while ANT is Jordan without even trying to be him
How did u known he doesn’t. They all have idol and role model. He mimics Jordan and Kobe!😂
He is trying that’s the point! Whether he is going to get there is the question. He has won nothing yet to be compared MJ and Kobe! I hope he does!
@Stev03 - Kobe had Shaq early in his career, what Ant is doing at 22 is damn impressive
I’d prefer to stop the comparison, but Ant has shown he has all the tools to be just as good, he’s even an elite defender
@@nydibs let’s wait till he has something. Kobe came in as 18. Shaq doesn’t win chip by himself. Kobe carried Lakers when Shaq fouled out. Kobe won 2 more chips and respected by the league and his peers like LBJ, wade, Carmelo, KD, etc. The point is Kobe is all time great and Ant is not there yet! My other points is guys r saying Ant don’t copy MJ like Kobe. How do we know he doesn’t. I am sure they watch videos of their idols and learn to moves themselves better.
Bring the broom!!!!!!
been a fan of mj and stopped watching years ago cuz the game is sad now...but this kid plays like mike and i guarantee more peeps tuning in to watch this kid then anyone else ..mj 2.0
yep!!...i'm gonna manifest!!!
what if the Wolves sweep the Nuggets!!?...
absolute pandemonium!!! lol 🙃
No Minnesota pro team has played in a championship game or series since the Twins in 1991. Come on! I need hope!
Antman and Nez come alive in four quarters
The refs were disgusting last night.
For those, whom never saw Jordan played, here is your chance, remember when Jordan came back from a broken foot and willed the Bulls to the playoffs! He had to convince the owner to let him comeback to play, they wanted to shut him down for the rest of the season!
The midwest teams keep bringing these goats MJ LBJ and now Ant!
Kobe as well because the Lakers came from Minneapolis
Dare yall to talk more ish 😤 twovles in 6
Tough
Revenge time
Love how they are just wearing normal people clothes
4-12 in the postseason of the previous 19 seasons.
Not 4-12 in their previous 19 postseasons.
This is MJ disguise in a boy face😮😮😊
The american boy to beat them Europeans! This is amazing can't wait for ant vs luka decade
Refs will extend this series. Wolves are better. Rigged league.
The rules will also change for the ant man and it must we saw this tonight free him up please let him express his game😊
One game and already people are trying to compare Anthony Edwards to Michael Jordan lol
You must be dumb. No one is comparing greatness. They're comparing his game and the way he is playing.
It’s not one game, Ant averaged 31.6 ppg and was the best players in last seasons playoffs vs Denver
And 4/5 of his playoff games this year vs Phx and Den have been elite. The people that have watched Ant have been saying this for years already believe it or not
Have you been watching? 40+ points in 2 consecutive games. Only Kobe has done it before age 23. You are witnessing something that hasn't been done since Kobe.
@@edgarortiz201 Wilt Chamberlain averaged 37.6 ppg as a rookie. Of course, back then players had to finish college before being eligible to be drafted by NBA teams, so he was 23 at the time. Anyhoo, people in this internet age just loooove to hype the shit out of everything, so you might turn out to be right if Ant can get six rings like MJ did. I guess the jury’s out until he turns 28 or so
Edit: I originally posted his rookie scoring average as 36.7 but corrected it to the correct figure of 37.6
@@nydibs You say that Edwards has been compared to Jordan “for years” but I didn’t see any mention of him in the MVP discussion this year. Jokic is still the favorite with Luka in the running and SGA as a dark horse candidate
Nuggets don't have a prayer beating the Wolves unless Joker at once stops playing outside so much. He's got to play down low. Duh! He's a 7-footer. Shame that so many of these trees want to be a Steph Curry and shoot 3-pointers from downtown. If Joker doesn't muscle his way to the bucket in the low post where he belongs kiss Denver's chances of repeating goodbye!
My prediction on the series is that if )"KAT " stop playing the jackass and staying out of foul trouble Minnesota will take the series in 6
By the end of this playoffs it will be crystal clear who that ANTHONY EDWARDS IS THE BEST PLAYER ON THE PLANET, AT AGE 22. Denver has NO ANSWER for Edwards. Neither does anyone else.
Ant averaged 31.6 ppg vs Denver in last season’s playoffs. Good reason to believe he can keep it up
nuggets are not winning this series
Stop blaming only Jamal Murray’s calf even when he was healthy this playoffs he wasn’t all that great
He hasn't been healthy throughout the entire playoffs
Too bad denver, the refs couldn't help you tonight 😮
I told ya'll at the start of the season that Anthony Edwards is baaaaaad!
Ya'll laughed.
Guess who's laughing now?
Minnesota got this, Denver is done.
Minnesota goin get the rings, by GOD'S GRACE. 🙏
Why are you surprised. Timberwolves roster is deeper than the Nuggets. Denver has 5 reliable players Minnesota has 8. Stop! I could break everything down about the 2 Teams. Shows like yours only educate sports fans with limited knowledge. If I took you 3, and we watched middle school kids play pick up games. Would you be able to identify who are the Dogs playing? Or do you really on someone to tell you😂
The Timberwolves are one of those teams where the sum is greater than the parts. They are good bc they all bought in and believe in each other, they genuinely seem to enjoy being teammates
At 23 THE. GREATEST. EVAAAA. Already WAY better than Jordan ever was. That's reality for all the fruitcup groupie beetchboys saying overrated pampered carried has been is his father. It's ironic. At 23 Ant is MIIIIIILES ABOVE a PRIME Jordan who without a superteam couldn't make the playoffs! It's laughable. There's not ANYTHING MJ had that Ant doesn't. Kobe is goat and this is the second coming.
