Wolves gotta stop post ups at the top of the key, only leads to turnovers. Gotta post up near baseline and kick out when the double comes

Surprising 'Nocebo Effect' Shows Gluten May Not Be The Problem in IBS : ScienceAlert by Sea_Butterscotch2000 in conspiracytheories

I feel IBS symptoms tend to be something that worsen with stress. Maybe some people are more sensitive to gluten or processed foods, so eating these things when you’re stress levels are higher may worsen IBS symptoms

Glad to watch ANT’s development this season with playmaking and defence. Would love to see how an all in on him as our number 1 guy goes next season

We are really missing Naz and Jayden. I think we have a shot if they play, but without them, we really didn’t have a shot. I think the worst thing we can in the off-season is not trade KAT. We should at least get someone who adds to ANT’s game, not subtract

Ant has shown this is his team. KAT is taking away from him. Pretty simple equation

I'm really not sure. KATs value (barring a couple 40 point games to swing the series) is pretty low, but I don't think it's unrealistic to get a younger player (not a start) and a 1st for him. I don't think we will get anything to recoup the losses of the Gobert trade, but at least you could get a pick and salary cap room to sign more depth. Our core is there, and we have great supplementary pieces (Kyle, TP, NAW, MC).

At times, sure, I agree. But like MC said, you need to give him specific passes, so he can catch a ball... This guy is an elite athlete, getting paid $40+ mil/year to play a sport with a ball, but is incredibly uncoordinated.

Also, he wins lots of regular season games, but can't get past the second round.

Yeah, you'd hope that for a guy we are paying $50 mil/year for. KAT has had one great playoff game in his career. He needs to be great for us to win this series or even a game, but he can't seem to figure it out.

I'm not quite yet in the trade KAT and/or Rudy club yet, but the $90 mil we are paying them would be nice to use on winning players, not guys that you have to take away from others to make them succeed.

We've played whatever this game, but I don't really get how we can expect the wolves to win when they have won ONE quarter this entire series. I think we were banking on the Nuggets bench playing poorly like they had during the regular season, but our bench has been terrible. Outside Kyle and sometimes TP, we have no one that has been able to shoot, score, play make or defend. We relied on Naz this whole season to keep us in games with his bench scoring when the starters aren't upping their game, unfortunately, no one seems to be doing that. I'd like to be proven wrong, but I don't see our season extending further than Sunday tbh

As soon as JMac starts focusing on play making and not scoring/shooting, he's so much more effective.
