Anthony Edwards and Karl-Anthony Towns were asked if the Timberwolves needed to lose big to get to this point.
Ant Man: “We lost the last two years.”
KAT: “God damn. How much more we got to lose? We been losing for 20 years. God damn.” 😂😂😂 pic.twitter.com/bFpR6a4lTv – 11:53 PM

There was nothing special about Minnesota’s offense after being down 20… Anthony Edwards missed 12 of his last 17 shots
But defensively, Timberwolves held Nuggets to 32 points on last 36 shots (33.3% FGs, 15.8% 3s) in last 22:50 of Game 7
Non-Jokic Nuggets: 5 of last 20 FGs – 11:24 PM

Anthony Edwards vs. Luka Doncic for a chance to go to the NBA Finals.
A matchup that will also go a long way to deciding who gets the baton passed to them as the best young superstar in the Association.

Anthony Edwards has just 4 points at the break.
While it feels like the defending champs have everything going for them, one stat to consider: MIN is 7-1 this season (regular season and playoffs combined) when Edwards is held below five points in the first half of a game. – 9:11 PM

Anthony Edwards is 1-of-6 from the field and he has scored 2 points……The Nuggets are committing two every time he puts the ball on the floor, but he’s gotta start emptying the clip. It’s still the first half but it’s getting dark – 8:54 PM

Anthony Edwards has never been in a Game 7, but does that even matter? His naïveté is a superpower, his confidence a shield.
“We feel like we’re just the better team,” he said so matter-of-factly after practice on Saturday.
