- The Minnesota Timberwolves improved to 2-0 after holding the Phoenix Suns to only 93 points. Kevin Durant finished with 18 points off 6-for-15 shooting, while Anthony Edwards had 15 points but stepped up on defense with Jaden McDaniels and had eight assists. Skip Bayless, Rachel Nichols and Keyshawn Johnson react to Game 2, then break down whether the T-Wolves are underrated or the Suns' issues are simply more visible now.

No.
Watch KD join Caitlyn !😅
no.
KD is a Timberwolf next season 😂
Celtic
Definitely teaming up with bron 😂
This is the best comment on TH-cam* ha
These jokes aren’t funny anymore . Be creative 😂
Funny tho, I always wanted KD here in Minnesota. I really thought he would have cemented his legacy if he had even taken Wolves to the Finals, considering how poor we have been.
But he chose San Fran and then Brookyn. Shiny objects, all these guys.
Or maybe the suns problem is that the Timberwolves are good?? 😂😂😂
Suns just lost.
@@merocopa3624no, the Timberwolves defense is just really freakin good.
Minnesota is a problem. Very good defensively and premium scorer and some good role players . Timberwolves vs nuggets WCF
@@samahimohammad2759actually the wolves play the winner between nuggets and lakers
Straight up....Every national media channel I see Is talking about the problems with the suns. LIKE PUT SOME RESPECT ON THE WOLVES
Rachel makes Keyshawn look silly during basketball talk
Because she covers basketball way way more. Unfair comnent...
@@jada8047 your right and Keyshawn clearly doesn’t watch any that’s my point
@@jada8047 Not unfair at all. The guy clearly doesn't watch basketball and sounds lost 98% of time.
@jada8047 How? It's his job to be prepared for the topics of discussion. It's literally his job to watch the games in order to be prepared and he clearly doesn't watch basketball.
Definitely. He’s a football guy
I’m tired of hearing, “No disrespect to the Timberwolves”. Give them the credit they deserve. It’s always the Timberwolves not winning the game it’s the other team losing the game
Rachel carried today’s show, she actually follows the sport, knows the players, the numbers and their current form.
Key and Skip are still convinced KD is a top 3 player, despite the fact he’s been poor in the post season since that Celtics beat down.
This isn’t controversial, the higher seeded team with the best player is winning. This is only shocking if you haven’t watched the game in 3-5 years.
I missed Paul Pierce though
She’s waiting on butler to come as a guest lol
Rachel makes all the other famales On espn look like they’re there to look pretty
This is mostly on Booker, who is disappearing once again. And Beal, who needs to channel his old self and Vogel, who doesn't preach defense. It's so much more to the Suns fascinating failure than just KD.
You talking about the Celtics with the best defense in the nba that year that smothered KD and went to the finals that year and the wolves who were the 1 seed most of the year with the best defense in the nba this year🫵🏿😭
I just thought of something. Would teams be underrated if the media did their job? Maybe they are underrated because you guys discuss the same 4 players all year
I would like to hear more about Denver Minnesota Oklahoma Knicks Celtics an Milwaukee an not Lakers an Golden State so much...
Nailed it. Money talks
Facts
When watching a team like the 2024 Timberwolves in the playoffs, it dawns on you:
how stupid NBA media coverage is to fixate unrelentingly on individual stars in a team sport.
Basketball is a team sport.
And basketball is played at its highest level... and is most entertaining to watch ..when you have a whole team playing together in harmony; 6 or 7 guys all contributing.
Another finals with no Bron, Curry and KD…Times have really changed
Rudy and KAT are both hated/underrated. Nobody but basketball sickos know Jaden and NAW are all-defensive quality defenders. The reason Booker and Beal have struggled is Ant is a great on ball defender and Jaden is a top 10 defender in the league. Add in NAW off the bench and there are no breaks for any of the Suns' stars. Throw in the DPOY behind them and it shouldn't be a surprise that the Suns are struggling with the increased physicality in the playoffs against a bigger, longer, stronger opponent.
Ant put it best. "They got KD but we got Jaden McDaniels".
The Bradly Beal trade was a terrible trade
Beal has done nothing so far in the playoffs
I dont feel bad for KD at all. Bro wanted out in Golden State, Brooklyn and now possibly the Suns. Proves more and more that he needed Curry to win his 2 rings 🤣
He'd a been better off staying in Brooklyn. At least they would've put pieces around him.
Kyrie left him hanging@@allendaniel7405
@@allendaniel7405He gave away those pieces for Harden. He blew it......
Don’t forget OKC
@@jandt3463 that is true
Wolves were the no 1 seed in the hyper competitive west for most of the season and somehow they are underrated? Def only in the national people that only follow teams that play on national TV.
Yeah that's the problem because they were legit spanking teams all year. Yeah, they had their slumps, but they never went on long droughts. They're built for a championship fr , idk if it will be this year, but if they win this series and beat the nuggets, I feel confident they will win it all. Their defense is too good
You’re underrated until you do something in the playoffs tbf…reg season holds little weight if you crumble in the playoffs…both conference finals featured play in teams last year 🤷🏾♂️
@@MrTkmcmill the WCF this year will feature two play-in teams from last season. 😜
@@Jevonechy Minnesota v Denver will be the hardest test for Denver in their last two year playoff run. Appointment television for that matchup if the Suns and Lakers can't come back.
@@Weebei that series will probably probably have the highest ratings. Definitely must see TV
Solid panel. Rachel got it right about the Suns front office. Key is right about Ayton & CP3. Skip is right about KD. He is not the killer that he once was.
He was never a killer like that. Bron dominated him like derozan until he jumped to warriors. He’d be ringless under lebrons domain and Steph curry would have 2 and bron would be sitting at 6 with a chance at 7 if they can somehow find a way to beat Denver
The problem was not losing Paul an Ayton it was losing Cam Johnson, Mikal Bridges, an Jae Crowder an 4 future picks for KD
@@Eman-oi8bh Bron dominated Durant???? When? Durant scored easily on him everytime they matched up. Durant WAS a killer.
@@MikeBNumba6 dominated. As in out performed him on both ends and won at a 3/4 ratio.
@@Eman-oi8bh He didn't dominate him though lol. No metric proves Lebron dominated Durant on both ends of the floor.
Their first meeting when Durant was on OKC Durant avg like 30ppg on 50% shooting. Durant torched him
No Key. Anyone with a brain cell knew the Suns wouldn’t be good. You can’t have 3 of your biggest stars be players that do the exact same things.
Maybe two. Bradley Beal is injured a lot. Good for 50 games a season, tops
Even with just 2 what about the 6th man/role players
Facts
Not a damn thing wrong with Rudy.. he’s a great defender and any team be lucky to have him on his team.. yea he’s weird he’s French, but he’s dominant on the defensive end of the floor
The suns built this team like they’re playing 2K
lol. Matt did that
Okay Skip hold KD accountable like you do the 39yr old you tweet about everyday all day
GETTEM
I mean Kd Ain’t 10-0 Vs Jokic My Guy
@@yba_ar15he also hasnt made it to a conference finals since he left the warriors so whats your point
Is kd compared to the goat
@@bmill8780 KD's teammates been either injured or missing. Kyrie, Harden, Ben Simmons, CP3 last year in the playoffs, Booker & Beal this year during the regular season (missed combined 40 games). Let's be real about this.
Keyshawn’s comments about Rudy Gobert defense lets me know that he really has a horrible grasp on basketball all together. Embarrassing to watch….
Good lord, Keyshawn and Skip apparently cant watch ball or read metrics. Rudy Gobert is elite.
What's not to like about Gobert... is it that he destroys your team?
It’s cause he’s French.
Rudy Gobert is a legend, keep hating him he’s gonna keep proving you clowns wrong
Why would someone "feel bad" for KD, he's been jumping from one superteam to the other!!! He should get all the heat like LBJ does... after all there are people who say he's better than LBJ.
Former athlete will side with that.
Exactly him and curry get all the passes in the world
KD routinely gets more heat than lbj. Lbj has espn, fs1, and klutz sports still carrying him.
@@melvinhhcp3615lies
Phoenix is not a super team. The reason I say that is because outside of KD DBook and Brad Beal they don’t really have much of nothing
Rachel knows more ball than Keyshawn.
Rudy Gobert is not good defensively he is HOF level defensively.
wemby deserved the award though
rudy won cause team defense
but when wemby on the court the spurs have the #1 defense in the league
@@AnonymousUser-ss2qrembiid dropped 70 on Wembys head. Spare me
The Suns had a point guard in Cam Payne to start the season and they traded him after he backed up CP3 for 3yrs. U can make an argument that Cam Payne would be more valuable than Beal at this point
He was hurt most of the season
Yep terrible management even trading for beale. Im starting to wonder if its KDs stupid choices pushing for it though. They had a great team at the nets and then all of a sudden gave up a heap of pieces for harden. Just gave away a prime backup in dinwiddie and a jarret allen etc who was fitting the team beautifully.
@@skillsmachine9164 dinwiddiengotnspitnroasted last nigh tho
@@eb9418 yeah Im saying at the time he was balling and a great backup for kyrie. This is a good 3 years ago. Hes washed now
Agreed. Bradley Beal is too inconsistent and he’s the same type of player as KD and Booker. All scorers, no facilitators. They have no one to set them up for good looks.
No one on Phx plays D and everyone in MN plays D and takes it personally.
Not one time did Skip blame KD for not winning the game lol
Right...but let that be LeBron
If it's KD versus Ant, they both had bad games.
Of course not🤦🏾
Keyshawn talks i press mute lol
“We're All Raised By Wolves”
People forgot that Wolves was #1 for majority of the season. But since they are #3, people are undervalued the Wolves season.
No they forget bc they have yet to have real playoff success…they make a deep run this year and ppl will begin to pay attention…no one is taken serious until you show up when it counts
Why feel bad for KD? He asked for this and if he can take the enormous praises that he recieves he also needs to take the criticism.
Right he jumps on Super teams now we should feel bad for the guy for trying cheat the game? Lol its silly
Caitlyn’s team next
@DJ_- yeah definitely agree, for a player of his caliber to have the lack of success in the playoffs ever since leaving GSW is just unacceptable and should have an effect.on how he is viewed as a superstar.
@@DJ_- You probably think lbj is Top 5.
Kevin DuCANT.
Kevin should 🐝 in the 🐐 conversation
Skip never gives the rest of the warriors the credit on why KD took over on all those finals teams lol
KD is not that dude.
who your fave??
@@mariopippin3008 Everybody except the Lakers 😁
You're not that bright.
@penkima4923 You are not bright at all.
I thought ant played solid yesterday, he hit a pretty big 3 in the 4th and didn’t shoot too much while he was cold. It takes great players to be part of a team that can win in multiple ways
He played OK aside from shooting, but he shot only 25 %. Which is not solid, especially after talking trash to KD.
The owner mortgaged the next 2 decades of the franchise to get swept in the first round
I remember meeting Rachel Nichols at GNC downtown Indianapolis in 2004, she was super nice and down to earth..
Kd is just a scorer nothing more he has never taken over games i like kd but its time to say that
This is false. He has taken over games in years prior, but he is not the killer that he once was.
@@melvinhhcp3615 Since he won that chip he hasn’t given a fck. He looks like he just shows up because he loves to hoop and is good at it. His drive to win isn’t there.
@@5luelight726 What about 2021 when he took Milwaukee to 7 games without Kyrie & Harden was hobbled. Joe Harris shot 29% fgs in that series. He had old Blake Griffin & Jeff Green starting with him. He still came within inches of sending Giannis home.
Kd is a decent rim protector and he’s good on defense, Devin booker is falling short
Funny how nobody gave the Wolves a shot against PHX before the series started (based on the regular season meetings), but now suddenly "everyone knew that PHX - as constructed - wasn't a serious threat in the playoffs..." GTFOH. Spare me. These national clowns knew only a few things about the TWolves before the series: 1. Ant. 2. KAT never performs in the playoffs. 3. Gobert is over-rated and the worst trade in NBA history that will be exploited come playoff time. Love to see these clowns suddenly (kinda) jumping on the bandwagon.
Timberwolves got a real shot to win the west this year and or win it all. It’s just getting past Denver is tough
Timberwolves look completely different from last year & they've learned from last year defensively , they will sweep
Comparing to last year's first playoff round, Ant was the best player of that series. And that was versus Jokic and Murray.
It’s so weird that so many people plainly say I don’t like Gobert but never give a reason. Saying he’s a limited player is at least about basketball.
He should win the regular season MVP, so I wouldn't call him a limited player.
Wolves are up 2-0 and they talk about suns ownership and how Rudy isn’t all that, after being the best player on the floor the past 2 games, trash program
Wolves on Top 🐺
“Motherf*ck the big 3, it’s just big HE” - J Cole
Keep reminding them
Jaden McDaniels is that dude. Ask J Cross.
Skip being a casual he only did what Andrew Wiggins did with Steph Klay and Dray, just show up and play free because teams gameplan for Steph and prime Klay.
Kevin DuCANT
Please get rid of Keyshawn
Suns dont have the depth to hang with the Wolves.
Truth
The Suns don't have the starting lineup to hang with the Wolves.
Keyshawn basically: "I just have a bias against Rudy and that prevents me from admitting that he is great"
Key basically: "I don't have brains, and I want to cry."
Suns have 3 superstars and they have the nerve to say the suns are unequipped 😂😂
Well they are
And
Tbh Beal isn’t a superstar
Booker is good but under sized and kd to skinny
Beal ain't no Superstar stop the cap 😭😭
@@kevinvega1572 Booker is oversized, and KD average weight.
Basketball gods coming for KD for joining the warriors 😂
About time, because KD is 10 years past his prime.
You got IT Bol Bol thad young play those guys
The fact that Keyshawn can call Beal a super star but hesitates to call Luka one is beyond me
It's not beyond you, if you listen to anything else Key says.
@@penkima4923 lol he said 3 superstars. But he said I don’t know if I can give Luka that title, that’s all I’m saying. He says Luka got to prove it. What did Beal prove to think that he made this year’s team better than last year? Or even project that he would make it better
@@kristopherreese6232 I've never heard Key say anything intelligent, so him calling anyone a superstar is never beyond me.
Will Kd ever get a ring without gsw 👀😬
Doesn’t look like it.
Not at all.
Nope because he doesn't has that type of heart in him
A ring is a ring. Doesn't matter where you get it.
Nope. Context definitely matters behind the chip bro.
I'm gonna say it again...those picks are paying off..
I think KD'S last chance was when his foot was on the line & they recinded the call😢😢
He still has a shot. He just needs to go somewhere else. The Lakers maybe. They got AR15 who could play PG for suns + Rui. Suns will trade someone. They have too because beal and kd taken up too much money and space
@@AnonymousUser-ss2qr who else is willing to take the chance considering how much he worth every year most teams are comfortable with who they have
You can tell Keyshawn lurking on other commentators biting their analysis… almost word for word. I don’t think he has original thoughts. We don’t need to listen to this clown.
The lack of playmaking on the Suns team is obvious, and Rachel brought it up, but Key didn't seem to grasp on that thought.
When has KD ever taken over a big time game?
Game 4,5,6,7 2021 vs bucks
How about against bron in warriors finals when he won mvp twice because he was clearly the best player
@@jamesbowen5167Thank you
2017 & 2018 Finals. 2019 playoffs prior to achilles injury. Every season in OKC.
@@jamesbowen5167and what happened in the end what did they take
I’m french and here we always talk about team chemistry and “team orienter mindset” as a key factor success in sports (even when we have world class players in sports that we thrive in, it’s not about having talent or not), and i’m surprised that it‘s never put forward in the US in a bigger way. Especially after the World Cup where clearly, TEAM work beat invidual talents
What does Key mean that KD doesn't deserve what's coming to him if the Suns will flame out in the first round? He definitely deserve all the criticism because he forced his way to this Suns team!!
KD deserves all the criticism that is coming his way. He had Harden and Kyrie. He also had CP3 and Booker. Finally, he has Booker and Beal. Whether it is his fault or not, KD must face the fact that he underachieved in this game for the moment. I hope he has enough left in the tank for the future. You guys notice that Skip does not criticize KD. Skip would have tarnished Lebron if Lebron was in this situation.
KD had Harden and Kyrie for a total of 16 games. And CP3 for 2 games in Western semis last year. And now he has Beal as a roleplayer scoring 15 ppg.
KD's prime was 10 years ago. He's still a good player, but he can't carry a franchise anymore.
@@penkima4923 OK 👍
People’s reasoning for not “Like” Gobert is stupid. Key shouldn't talk basketball. 🤷🏽♂️
I seen during the first half of game 1 that this is Timberwolves series to lose. They was bigger, more athletic and hungry. Not hard to see these things when you watch hoop
I love Ants full court defense
I love Rachel bro she actually knows wat she talking bout she’s not bias and she fine asl 😂keep her on the show
They all keep talking smack about Gobert. Yet he keeps slapping them down. Humble pie on the way.
Rachel is a gem when it comes to basketball
KD should have just stayed with Curry
Mike Conley is great for the wolves because he has the best chemistry with Rudy than any other player on the team. Both players control the controllables as far as their roles. Rudy on D no diddy and Conley on the O.
Conley is playing great defense, and Gobert has been the best offensive player in this series.
Why not bring Beal off the bench as the 6th man? I'm not sure if it would help but its a change up that allows Beal to have the ball with the bench players.
How are you gonna make this all about the suns. They suck bro. Talk about how good the wolves are and have been all year.
KD and Book are perennial superstars. Ant is not that yet.
This also comes back to drafting and developing your players
Yea it definitely feels better to have a superstar duo then a big 3 now in the NBA now imo
It depends on positions and roles. The Suns have 3 high-scoring star wings, and that doesn't work at all. The Wolves have a ballhandling off-guard, a stretch big and a rim-protector, which is a great mix.
Having a big 3 and none of them play defense... The reason Mike & Scotty was so good they played Defense .. These players today all about offense only
💯. Defense in general isn't valued enough in the media. It's crazy to me that those Bulls championship teams were a "defense first" mentality. They leaned on it. Yet all I hear about is MJ and that he was a "scorer", and forget he was a shutdown wing.
@@s0ta21 MJ was more of a great help defender than a lockdown.
The value of defense is going up during these playoffs.
Kevin Durant is officially past his prime. Not saying he’s still not a very good to great player, but the 2012-2021 KD doesn’t exist anymore. He’s going to be 36 and already in his 17th season as a pro. Devin Booker has to be there #1 guy if there going to reach whatever there potential is. So far he has disappointed in that.
Hard for Booker to be the 1st option, if they don't have anybody calling plays for him.
Said it before mcdaniels is underrated...
That's a good one, yeah that's KD does right if you can't beat them join them
Key heard that from Paul after game one 😂
That Ant quote about Jaden is like a year old now.
Lets not mention how suns leading shooter had 16 attempts. This Wolves Defense is legit.
People forget you can get away without having another big and point guard in the regular season, but when it comes to the postseason where a team can key in on your flaws you will get exposed
James Harden was able to play less like a high-volume scorer and more like a playmaker for the Nets. Book has to do the same for the Suns to advance.
I LOVE YOU RACHEL!!! Suns have to move Beal NOW for a competent PG and a better TEAM around KD and Book! KD and Booker are great scorers and they can defend but they have very little around them. Nurkic and Allen are really good pieces but they need more around them especially a PG.
Wolves in 5
Kd is holding dbook and Beal back dbook and Beal actually has chemistry but they keep playing through kd they have to make a decision and need to get rid of kd , Allen ,
3:00 its true. Even Nick Wright said. They are all 3 versions of the same player with each one being lesser than the other. And all 3 are starting too.
Rachel is a breath of fresh air. Smart move Skip. Now find a replacement for Keyshawn…he is not good.
Proverbs 16:19
Better it is to be of an humble spirit with the lowly, than to divide the spoil with the proud.
About the new owner, look at what Greg Laurie and Alex Rodriguez did for the Timberwolves
I picked the Suns to beat the T-Wolves in 6 but damn the way the T-Wolves are playing they win the series in 5 maybe 6. I still think the Suns will find a way to win the series
Where is Paul ! we need Paul !
If the Suns get swept I don’t want anyone putting KD and Steph/Lebron in the same sentence bro would’ve been swept in the first round in 2 of the past 3 postseasons.
Well, Steph was eliminated in the play-in. And LeBron is down 0-2, as well.
The NBA thought they could get away with taking the true Centers & true point guards out of the NBA game but it’ll expose you in the playoffs
The Wolves clearly don't undervalue big men.
And the reigning champions don't have a true point guard.
Skip when the Suns traded for KD you said that the Suns were going to win the NBA championship. You love the Suns too sir. "You first guessed it" don't put that on Keyshawn.
Wait!!! What?!?! You need a team??
Why are they talking about Ant "just" arriving now?? it's not like he avg. 28, 5, 5 in the playoffs before going into this series.
4:27 yea key, you just need to talk about football. Because nobody thought that! We all seen another Brooklyn team. We seen nothing to show they could compete for a championship against a complete team.
lol Keyshawn needs to watch a few T-wolves game
It's amazing how everyone that got fired from ESPN ended up on Fox Sports. Good to always see her again.
Skip says Durant can’t go nuclear anymore but expects an older, lebron to dominate a far better team in Denver. Make it make sense
Poor Phoenix Suns...again no love for the Wolves.
