The crown is yours today is Wednesday, May 8th and the Denver nuggets are in some deep, deep shit PFT. Yeah, they looked really bad. They looked terrible offensively. They looked bad defensively.

3:45.0

The Minnesota Timberlitz looked awesome defensively, which had a lot to do. It's not all in the nuggets, but they looked at a sorts. I had a thought, and I'm not exactly like a film breakdown guy when it comes to basketball. I don't know if you know that about me or not. But it seems like every time teams play the nuggets, they play the nuggets game. And they try to match up against Yokech in a way that the Timberwolves didn't even attempt to do last night because they had their hand forced with Rudy Gobera being out for having sex nine months ago. So by stretching him out and by Yokech didn't, I don't know what he was doing. He looked like he was just in No Man's land defensively

4:25.6

for most of the game, like caught halfway between

4:28.4

where he's used to being and where he should be. And they just ate his lunch. Yeah, no, I mean the nuggets, the nuggets are in trouble. I mean, you're right. Yokeuch, like he gets stuck in these picking rolls. He's been swiping its stuff. He's looked for all the things that people criticize Yokecch for before his championship run.

4:47.6

It feels like they're coming back right now. I still think he's an incredible player. One of the best players in the NBA. I'm not ready to bury him right now, but the wolves feel like they have the nuggets number and its intensity, defensive intensity and Anthony Edwards just being a superstar in the making and like you said no rude to go

5:09.4

bear. and it's intensity, defensive intensity, and Anthony Edwards just being a superstar in the making. And like you said, no Rudy Go Bear and they're defensive. Like they just have, the wolves just have so many dudes that are so big and they're just so, their arms are everywhere. They're defending the entire court. They're picking up Yokech. Like it's Yokech, you know, brings a ball up a bunch. They're picking him up at half court, bothering him there. And it does, it's an interesting subplot because the guy who helped build the nuggets, Tim Connelly is the GM for the wolves. And it feels like the wolves are created to beat the nuggets. And that's what they're doing. And then you also have the factor of Jamal Murray Just having an absolute meltdown throwing a heat pack on the floor People were very upset. I personally Can't get that upset about it because I and this is a flaw of mine and it's probably a flaw of how I parent as well If no one gets hurt, I don't really do any punishments. Like if there's not an injury, I'm like,

6:06.8

all right, keep playing, it's fine. I get it, it was pretty sure to've done that. It's a crazy move, but some people being like, someone could have died out there from that heat pack. It felt like a lot. The heat culture gone wrong. And when he threw it out there, It looked like he was throwing it at the ref.

6:24.2

I saw, did you see the zoomed in camera angle?

6:26.6

Yeah.

6:27.4

I have a Zepruder style film of it

6:29.0

that zooms in on him He's like behind the basket. He looks like he's trying to hit the ref I'm willing to give this a pass because that's hilarious if it had hit the ref that would have been very funny He probably you probably would have been suspended for maybe two games if that had happened and instead they give them a $100,000 fine, same that Rudy Goberi got for doing the money sign

6:47.6

to the refs.

6:48.9

But it looked like, I don't think it was, and for maybe two games if that had happened. And instead they give him a $100,000 fine, same that Rudy Goberi got for doing the money sign

6:47.6

to the refs.

6:48.9

But it looked like, I don't think he was trying to throw it

6:50.3

on the court.
