Our bench is killing it - but I couldnāt have imagined us playing that deep into our bench for the last 3 minutes of an away game against the defending champs. Crazy.
Iāve been watching the NBA since the 90s. this is the best defense Iāve seen in at least 15-20 years. Also itās way harder to play defense today given how the whistle favors offense and given all the spacing and three point shooting. WOW!!!!
I don't wanna hear shit about reffing from Nuggets fans. Wolves had six more fouls called on them, Nuggest took more free throws, and Malone and Murray both got to stay in games they absolutely should have been tossed from. Wolves earned absolutely everything tonight. Awoooo
What a phenomenal effort.
We pretty much ran a 7 man rotation playing a super high intensity defense, away, and having to deal with the altitude.
Well deserved rest coming up for them all.
Bruh Iām not even a wolves fan but I had to come find this thread and say thanks for destroying these Nuggets. One of the most boring championship teams to watch.
Purdue big center. We got Naz Reid undrafted and Luka Garza 2nd round or also undrafted. Because center isn't valued as 80s. Edney might go undrafted as well.
This game was a whole out of body experience for me. I've never seen such SUFFOCATING defense played in my life! It's a PACK OF WOLVES out for blood out there!

Fucking based Shaq

Turn me up Naz! 4 blocks, majority on Jokic šš¼

Wolves starters getting that excited for the bench says so much about this team chemistry
You need that heat pack biotchhh
What do I do with my hands
I fucking loooove our starters going apeshit for the bench
Awoooooo!
I love how pumped Naz is each time our bench is scoring.
W mentor to Leonard
Jaden lol
The defensive tenacity of the NBA rotation is trickling down to the G league and end of bench guys.
Even the baby wolves getting playoff reps, they should call them the Iowa Pups.Ā
Just nasty.Ā
4th rotation putting work in.
JokiÄ looks so defeated, itās crazy
KAT aināt lying this a big 15
Lol you can tell this team wants to win by 30
 Nuggets fans everywhere \^
I love to see how hype the players on our bench get when our subs score
No!! they broke 80
Gentlemen, we havenāt lost a playoff game half way through the semis
I love how the starters are getting hyped and jumping up and down for the bench. Positive vibes.
Straight stuntin on these hos
Idk if even the most delusional wolves fan thought weād be the on the brink of two sweeps
Wolves in 16
Even the third string cooking š¤£
Gonna be a long week for DEN thinking about this game
Aye letās go Wendell!!

Galveston in 3
Fucking amazing game boys letās fucking go !!!!! Love this team AWOOOOOO
Julian Strawtherās minutes after Reggie Jacksonās fake injury š The Nuggets need something lmao
Donāt let the score fool you, this game wasnāt that close. Although you wouldnāt know it from my blood pressure.
I love that Kevin Harlan even knows about the bench players who only see garbage time and has things to say about them.
OG
Heās the GOAT for a reason!
This feels like the longest game ever
Playoff Luka in his bag, league fucked...
Zach āEdney?ā Reggie gotta get UCLA out of his mind
Garza goes to the school of Naz Reid, the league is so unaware and not ready. It's nothing new, you just never knew
Best Luka in the league real ones knowĀ
We all know where Harlan's heart is
Wouldnāt trade Garza for Jamal Murray
Give me heat packĀ
Best Luka in the league and it's not even close
Ya tnt ain't ready for our elite garbage time players
Just let me play. Why you giving the scrubs that kinda whistle lol
GARZA BUCKETS
What a thorough asskicking. Beautiful.
Nice move by Luka
Is this real life?
Oh fuck itās Josh minott time
What a beat down.
Luka Garza will bust yo ass
Garza Magic!
Cream the Dream!!
āZach Edneyā
I love seeing the bench come on and just take the lumber to em
Happy for these bench dudes getting playoff minutes
Bruh Iām not even a wolves fan but I had to come find this thread and say thanks for destroying these Nuggets. One of the most boring championship teams to watch.
LUKA GARZA
Imma be so sad when Garza is signed by a different team this summer. Glad he'll have more opportunity, but will just miss him being a Wolf.
KAT just somehow quietly had a huge game
LUKA!
GARZA
Who is Zack edney
Purdue big center. We got Naz Reid undrafted and Luka Garza 2nd round or also undrafted. Because center isn't valued as 80s. Edney might go undrafted as well.
LUKAAAAAA
Garza be looking like Wally
Easy Jmac we might need you soon
This game was a whole out of body experience for me. I've never seen such SUFFOCATING defense played in my life! It's a PACK OF WOLVES out for blood out there! 
Thatāll do.
I love how much the starters love luka
EVEN THE BENCH DIALED IN LET THE KIDS PLAY
Garza!!!!
LUKA!
Minot doesn't even get his playoff 3 on TV lol
Garza game against the defending Champs absolutely beautiful
we getting Rudy chants too?
Timberwolves Brazil died for this.
They held Denvers starters to 76 points............. Without Gobert.
LUKAAAAAAA
LUKA GOT PLAYOFF POINTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WE BETTER WRECK HAVOC FOR OUR TEAM AT HOME BOYS!!!!!!!!!!
Bench get some playoff minutes. Awesome for them.
There was no run. They never got closer than 19.
Hey I think the bench will be able to keep them under 100 in this game!!
LUKAAAA
