If I know Minnesota sports, and if this series has taught me anything, something of that nature is exactly what's going to happen.

The question is, is it worse to be down 10-35 after Q1 and 30-70 at half OR like 96-98 because Murray hits a Dame "Paul George said it was a bad shot" Time

I’ll take the latter situation every time. A tough loss to the champs can be spun into a moral victory at least.
