The Knicks Pacers was closer than I thought. One or two plays either way...I now think this could go 7 and I only have the Knicks as a sleight favorite.
In the West, the T-Wolves are dominant, and that is without Gobert! 48 points is great for Jokic for one game, but not for two! 16 points last night is embarrassing.
Denver needing 4 out of 5 now might be too much.

Color me suitably surprised. The T-Wolves are certainly sticking it to the champs while making Jokic look insignificant. Who had THAT on their Bingo card? I honestly thought Minnesota's win in game one was an anomaly, looks like it's the norm for this series.

Waiting on two discipline decisions right now, one is Patrick Beverley for throwing a basketball twice into the stands at fans(hitting one woman in the head), have a while before that needs to comes out since he's obviously at home now and a free agent but that one could be a doozy considering he basically assaulted fans, like I wouldn't be surprised if we see a suspension like the ones from Malice in the Palace over that

The more important one however is for Jamal Murray, during the drubbing the Nuggets took yesterday he first threw a towel at the refs that didn't quite make it, and then even more egregiously he threw a heating pad onto the court during play where it almost ended up under KAT's feet and could have caused major injury if he had stepped and slipped on it. So the Nuggets could very well be down their second most important player going into Minnesota



Edit: Latest news says Murray will avoid suspension but will likely be hit with a major fine

Boston looked great last night.
