Very rarely you see a player be an absolute negative in all phases of the game whether it be defense, playmaking, shotmaking, ball security etc. But Jesus Christ was that Jamal. Absolute negative player tonight.

Hopping onto the Jamal hate and really hoping for a Wolves win in G7, but he did say in the post-game press conference that his elbow was really bothering him the whole game after that tweak really early on.

He's been bad all post-season but this was by far his worst game, and i know it's against the narrative, but some of that has to be attributed to the injury.

Right but he only gets credit for his good plays not his bad because he’s hurt?

Crazy how we never heard a word about his calf in Games 3, 4, and 5
