One down, three more to go.
This series so far has fallow simple road. More physical team wins. And you can be sure about one thing, Minnesota is gonna bring it tonight. They will give their best to get this game to mud wrestling. Nuggets have to be ready to respond, cause if we get this game to ball skills, that is where we winning.
This is going to be hardest game Nuggets have played last two seasons. Game 3 was winnable since we knew Wolves will put their guard down a little and wait for Nuggets to selfdestruct, which was possibility, but since they didn't, win was certain. This time, they are coming out all guns blazing, and hopefully Nuggets will do the same.
If intensity is matched on both sides, it all starts with defense. Play like you did in game 3, and there will be no problems, cause eventually, Nuggets will score more. Unless they totally s**t the bad, which I hope aint gonna happen this time.
Also, everyone is saying this is must win game, which I don't think it is. Even if we lose, 1-3 is catchable. And even if we win, 2-2 is certainly not sure win. Just go out and fight, and then live with results.
btw, I fully expect Foster to be referee for this one. I think Zarba crew officiate two days in a row, so they are out. Tony Brothers are not getting assignment again, and I don't think Marc Davis crew will be there again since they were in for game 2. Game 1 was Capers, so he might be called again, but since this is most expected game of whole second round, I do expect Foster and his crew to be in. We don't have CP3 so I wouldn't mind that at all
Cmon boyz, bring this series to 2-2 before coming home!

Play your game and result will come.
Nuggets have figured out their opponent, strong aggressive start to set the tone and another win will come. Minnesota will be tougher this time, no doubt, but with smart play we can put them in their place.
GO WIN THIS GAME!!!

As freakns said, this will be the Nuggets toughest game in two years.
If the Nuggets win this I believe they go on and win the series, and by extension, go on to win the title.
An era and legacy defining match up. Sounds hyperbolic but when you look at how inferior the OKC-Mavs match up has been and how soft the Celtics are, is it really that far fetched?
Enter the MV3 to step it up even further from game 3 and put in an all-time performance. This is his moment to show he is a top 5-10 all timer which I think we all believe.

I'm not looking ahead. this team will go where Jamal's calf takes them. right now, my biggest dream is for him to play two games in a row where he doesn't look like Long Jon Silver. G3 was very inspiring but we don't know if it was an aberration or not.

If the Nuggets come out strong and play with purpose, they will have a good chance to win. T-Pups were shockingly unprepared for the last game because they believed their press clippings. A fully dedicated and focused Minny beats us if our game is not fully realized. Both teams psyched and ready means it comes down to shooting. Hopefully Jamal's calf loosens up so he can do what he does in moments like this and Joker makes the shots he usually makes that barely missed last game. Humans have shots that bounce around and come out but gods don't. Joker has been a god most games since arriving here. We don't need perfection to win, we need just a couple to bounce around and go in to demoralize T-Pups. Someone (or two) from our bench needs to seize the moment. It be anyone, but CB, RJ, and Holiday are most likely once again. (Wouldn't it be nice to see the best P-Watt (or Zeke?) we know fully emerge in the playoffs?)

Minny won game 1 courtesy of a couple of horseshit bank shots; especially Naz Reid's 3. It's our turn for some luck.

Minny won game 1 courtesy of a couple of horseshit bank shots; especially Naz Reid's 3. It's our turn for some luck. last season Reaves banked one three per game... it didn't matter. if Nuggets play as good as they can, no banked shots will disrupt them. they lost game one because they played bad. they were out hustled and out coached. if they play tonight like they did last game, they will win regardless of what Minnesota do. if they play like they did first 6 games of this postseason(not counting gm 2 against Minny which was aberration), they will lose. simple as that.

Foster crew as I predicted. We should have normal whistle, no wrestling allowed.

Not sure anything would be cooler than Jokic having a legacy game in a win.

Time for Jokic to have a monster game. Series on the line so we should find out what the Nuggets have left in the tank. Be interesting to see how the Wolves react after last game as well.

Just (figuratively) punch first, don't wait to get punched and react. You can't rope-a-dope against this team like the Lakers. be Tyson, not Ali.

Limit the Wolves in transition and you win the game. AKA don't turn the ball over and don't miss every shot you take.

Embarrassing defense being played. Put CB in for KCP. Enough. He can't guard him at all.
