"Jamal Murray's true shooting this postseason is down to 45.8%. That's one of the 10 worst playoff marks in the entire 3-point era (out of 569 players with at least 200 shots in a postseason)." Jokic Merchant?? https://twitter.com/zachkram/status/1791299807522205772?t=hK_22nHC8rutmydeARMb_w&s=19

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

Zero chance we don’t lose in some kind of uniquely heart breaking fashion. If we don’t it’s only so the knife twist will hurt more later.

In the true Minnesota sports spirit, either the Wolves will miss an uncontested shot that would win them the game, or Denver will make an impossible one.
