Timberwolves fans should be as confident as ever heading into Game 7 against the Nuggets.
Their team is good enough to knock off the defending champs. The 43-point drubbing we all watched is more than enough proof.
BUT. But…If there is anything that should make Wolves fans uneasy heading into Sunday, it’s the fact that Nikola Jokic is on the other end of the court. The Nuggets’ big man is the best player in the world, after all. And if the fourth quarter of Game 6 is any indication, he’ll be extremely locked in for this one.

It wasn’t anything that he did on the court. Don’t get it twisted — the Nuggets got dogged. It was just that he just stood there, so menacingly, for the rest of the game. Just…watching.

Bruh. This doesn’t necessarily mean anything. It’s not something that should worry Wolves fans too much.
But man. The vibes are there. Game 7 is going to be good.
