An unexpected coaching move in this Wolves-Nuggets series was Chris Finch’s decision to put Anthony Edwards on Jamal Murray.

New story: The Wolves’ comeback over Denver actually started 13 months ago, when Ant Edwards ran into Jamal Murray at a bar after MIN’s 1st Rd loss to DEN. “I told him, ‘We’ll be back,'” Edwards told ESPN. “‘You’ll see us again when we’re fully loaded.'” bit.ly/3QQkNGB – 2:04 AM

When the dust settles on this year, how much the Nuggets pushed and pressed during the 82-game regular season coming off a championship run needs to be looked at. Every Nuggets starter (except Jamal Murray because of injuries) played more minutes than they did last season even – 12:28 AM

Jamal Murray and Michael Porter Jr. have reached a wall. They each need to get better for this next stage and I am very curious to see what they look like next year.
Plus, it feels like we haven’t seen a truly hungry Nuggets team in years. Next season should be fun. – 10:46 PM

Bittersweet for Canadian hoops fans. The country’s 2 best players are out in the Conference Semis. Silver lining: Shai Gilgeous-Alexander & Jamal Murray will have a few more weeks of rest/prep time ahead of Canada camp & the Olympics. Could be crucial for Murray’s availability. – 10:35 PM

Nuggets’ starters, especially Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray, looked gassed, exhausted, and had no energy the entire 2nd half. Settled for 3s, missed box outs. They had nothing left. Worn out after playing too much in the 1st half. – 10:34 PM

At the half: Nuggets 53, T-Wolves 38.
Impeccable defensive half for Denver. Held Edwards to only 4 points.
Jamal Murray has 24 points and Jokic has 13 points & 15 rebounds.
If you are Malone, what is your message to the team? – 9:10 PM

Jamal Murray and Nikola Jokic settle the Nuggets down a little bit. Good to see Murray find some baskets early.
Michael Porter can’t buy one. That three was ll the way down, around, and out.
On the other end, Denver’s defense has been strong, but they’ve dodged some bullets. – 8:23 PM
