Add Nuggets, Wolves To Conference Semifinals Lore

This has been an instant classic series without an instant classic game. It has seemingly been over twice and now we get to watch two superduperstars on supremely well-constructed teams in a Game 7.

by Wes Goldberg

The NBA superstar journey inevitably encounters a situation like Nikola Jokic has faced against the Wolves where their burgeoning legacies are perilously threatened.

NBA Draft Report: Kel'el Ware Of Indiana

by Zachary Cohen

Kel'el Ware has stretch center potential, while also possessing a floor as a playable rim-runner, which says a lot about him as a prospect.

The Wolves Owned All 4,700 Basketball Squares

by John Wilmes

Minnesota's defensive effort in Game 2 was a transformative sight. In what appeared to be an effort to become one with their team name, they swarmed, smashed, hounded, snarled, took, and destroyed for 24 straight minutes to start the game. Not an inch of the court was safe.

How do you feel about the state of our team?

A) This team is really enjoyable, I'm happy with them...lets see what happens this season: 21; 62%

B) Let's tweak the core a bit and hope that it improves us (give an idea below): 5; 15%

C) This team ain't sniffing a Championship...forget this year and build for the future: 4; 12%

I like this damn team. We've basically been 19-7 this year with Stephen Jackson...while playing one of the toughest schedules in the NBA. That's pretty good IMO. And it's not like this team is old farts, we have a bunch of young players who will improve over time, including some really promising bigs. AND on top of that we're the most exciting team in the NBA (maybe 2 behind the Suns). Im diggin the team

EDIT: for **** and giggles let's say we had Jack all year...and instead of 0-6 he helped us go 2-4 in those first games. We'd be 21-11, which is the 3rd best record in the West. LEGIT

I would like to see a bench. I thought going into this season that our bench was deeper than last seasons team. Unfortunately it is our biggest weakness.

Love the team -- its the most exciting to watch, has a fantastic record with Jackson back and the team is gelling on the road. I don't see why anyone would want to shake the team up with a trade, unless it was heavily slanted for an athletic big that no team would give up.
