He's from the south after all.
thats actually hilarious. love chuck
Chuck is the best comedian on earth 😂😂
He got mixed up almost saying CP3

I got 4 rings running people over😂😂😂 Shaq’s funny😂
That was a cold line
He just being honest
his contemporaries would agree.
Thats a FLOP
It took over 30 yrs for him to admit it
No charging foul for KAT, No technical foul for Coach Malone. Its a Tie 😂😂😂
I believe that's why coach Malone didn't get a technical it was a make up for not calling foul on Jamal Murray
Nope. Jamal Murray not getting called still trash
@@pilar9247 Jamal not only threw the heat pack, but also threw a towel at/towards the ref in 2Q, and did the money gesture after complaining to ref (that got Rudy fined 100K earlier in year). Of course game 1 Ant got a T for just looking at a player, and Jamal did double 'finger shooters' pointing to KAT after hitting an And 1. Jamal is so flustered and mentally outta it cause we have multiple guys in his shorts all game.
@@m40dot The altitude is killing Denver…😢😢😢 Wolves are running their prey to exhaustion and devouring them. They’re a Wolfpack.
@@pilar9247makes up for last game when ant got whacked and got no call. Fair is fair
As someone who misses old school 90s Basketball, the Wolves are refreshing to see.
Absolutely
Playing 90s basketball = Winning basketball. Same way UConn plays defense.
Exactly what I was thinking
Lol put any of those 90s Bulls, Jazz, Suns, Knicks, Sonics, Magic etc teams in todays game and they'd be the favorites because they played defense and ran actual offenses. This game exposed tht "we done with 90s trend" as mofos only caring about #s and not defense or fundamentals
@@tdup191 the wolves are a better iteration than any of those teams because the schemes are better + they can shoot the 3. Game has still improved since then.
If you from Minnesota you know this is the best season to be in Minnesota right now it’s BEAUTIFUL

@@lucky889s9 , this just shows that the Nuggets are not invincible. And if the Lakers had a slightly better coach, then they would have not needed the play in, and could have won that series against the Nuggets.
Wolves had Jokic looking like Nurkic out there. Rarely seen him look so ineffective in the past 3 years, huge props to the defense.
I think he's playing too much. I don't think they have another centre.

Ant-Man is the future of the league, for real-- just takes joy in competing and talking trash, gotta love it

Ya'll did the same with Ja Morant and now look. Why not let us just enjoy these players for what they do NOW and see what they aee capable first before crowning them @SuperRobertoClemente
Morant represents the worst in America.
I seen a comment that said if draymond threw that heat pack he would be put in Arkham Asylum 😂

saw
The wolves are playing like it's the 90s, especially defense. Hardcore solid basketball
its beautiful. i love it. not just chucking up 3s
Nah, we done with the 90s. Overrated defense.
90s defense wasn’t this good
The T Wolves played stifling defense against Denver. It was complete domination for them.
Yup, energized and moving at all times. It was amazing to watch actually. Haven’t often seen defense like that these days.
Yea it was artful@@mothershipish1
Joker fraud has finally been exposed.
Huh, that's exactly what Shaq said, we heard him say that same thing, he must've read your comment 😂
I wish the league can defend at this level somewhat during the regular season 😢
Naas Reid just smothered the nuggets all game long. I didn't think that was gonna happen without Rudy.
The block on Murray was 🥶
When you look at the Wolves' payroll and see how many bargains they got on players like this
NAZ! 😉
Rudy not being there is why they all stepped up like that on D.. bet you they had that convo when they knew he wouldn't be there.. like "everybody gotta step their D up! And dont f'ing foul" 😂
Rudy is overrated. If you go back to game 1, the other bigs were playing better against Jokic than he did
Defense as it finest. Love to see this from this young’ns. 90s ball is back.
Yeah, especially since people said it is impossible to play defense in this area it looks like all the inflated offense has more to do with officiating than it does with actual skill scoring is down in the playoffs because they're allowing them to play
@@markmills9899 and of you observe the games since the all star break. I think adam silver heard what the fans been saying, that we need to bring back real defense. Since all star break i observe more physicality is being imposed and the whistles for fouls has lessen.
It was so good to see man. I love to watch them get after it. We need more of this across the league and this summer more importantly
For real
@@markmills9899it does they call too many fouls on defenses for simply contesting and making it awkward for their enemy. Refs weren't calling this many fouls years back.

I don't understand your comment. These are the same dudes y'all swear would start crying in the 90s and 80s, now all of a sudden this is how it's supposed to be? So just generally speaking would this wolves team be a juggernaut back then since we know they're better on offense now?
@@bobbybigfellow8516 I'm saying, look how dominant their defense is and how the physical style of play disrupts the so-called better offense. T-Wolves are winning because their defense is more superior than others which most teams now don't play.

Wow captain obvious. You just basically said the team won
At least they combined 56 and I think the grand scheme of things this time and the rest of guys did their part. I hope they resurrect a series worth watching. I'm excited to finally watch all the guys clicking on all their cylinders. Gotta be A Good ending.

Defense wins championships.
And the best defensive player on the team didn't play❤
Its already 2-0 you’re so smart
Its freakin insane how they could just dominate the champs like this. The Antman era has begun
When a team wins, people/pundits/analysts think they are perfect. I have been complaining about this Denver since the first round. They didn't play well against the Lakers. All the 4 games they won against the Lakers were very close. In fact, the Lakers led for most minutes. Denver just had their way in the last 3 minutes of those games. If the Lakers had a little bit better defense, they would have knocked out Denver. The Lakers blew up 15+ points lead in 2 out of the four games. That won't happen against the Timberwolves.
Denver is getting swept.
Kenny’s got a good point, shaq’s got a good point this series is a wrap 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

The Nuggets already being in a must win with their first 2 games at home is something else but they also been starting these first half’s terribly in the playoffs.
bad habits will eventually catch up against better teams . lakers gave them a false sense of security in close wins but this twolves team is the number 1 defense for a reason. Now when The McNuggets are down 20 its over because the wolves won't let you back in the game with them being able to guard anybody the nuggets have .
dlo and reeves bad defense aren't there to mask the nuggets weakness any longer they are officially exposed as a team that plays around for most of the game and thinks they can flip a switch. last thing is jokic is kind of soft and cant ever dominate when he faces any kind of real resistance from legit bigs

Yeap and unlike the Lakers they have size and perimeter defense
Yeah it was clear they arent as good in that series. They barely scrapped through it.
So maybe the lakers were way worse than we thought. Denver seems to be burned out. Do you think Denver will get swept?
😅THANK YOU!! I said this in another chat. Those boys aren't giving up the lead like the Fakers.😅😅
It's crazy how much length Minnesota has to throw at opponents. The sad thing is, if they go up against the Celtics in the finals, I wouldn't be shocked if the Celtics just light them up from 3 because it's clear no team can match them in the paint.
Why Do people forget that The WOLVES Had the #1 Record in The West before KAT became Injured.
It's no Surprise what's going on
At the last game of the season, the Wolves, Nuggets, and Thunder were all tied exactly. It's a very dangerous top of the West.
But one of those teams had the lead for much longer than the other two.
We're playing the reigning champions, who have the best player in the world. It's pretty surprising we won on their home court twice,
@@patrickhanlon2325not only twice but in convincing fashion
Thank you Coach Finch, thank you to the Timberwolves. Once a joke of a franchise they have brought back what so many of us fans want to see from the NBA. Great defense, great collective, efforts and showtime when needed. Wow. I feel lucky to get the chance to watch them play. With the Brunson signing the Gobert (+Conley) trade(s) is one the greatest front office moves in recent history. It has turned the Minnesota franchise upside down.
We’re finally good! 20 years since KG!
My Utah Jazz couldn't get anywhere with our roster when we had Gobert and Conley but those two get to be a big part of a strong performing team now and I'm very happy for them!
@@jordanjenkins1671 You got Sexton and Markkannen. You guys should have no worries if those two stay healthy next year, they very well could make a solid playoff team. I could see them being top 6 along with the Nuggets, Lakers, Timberwolves, OKC, and the Warriors could sneak in there again.
Really impressive win by Minnesota. I think Ant Ed mentality is fundamental to keep the team focused, confident and energetic. Really impressive and a very good team to watch. I like Antman a lot.
This is a new era in the NBA
As soon as Lakers are gone refs turned their behaviour 180 - old school physicality is allowed.

Wolves vs Nuggets, literally
They disrupted the Nuggets offense.
Anybody else get tired of Shaq using his 4 rings to argue when he gets mad. If I was Chuck I’d remind him that Kobe and D Wade helped him and to stop acting like he got those rings himself.
Facts....It's getting old u didn't win by yourself...Chuck tried his best
Penny helped him get to the finals in 1995 and Horace Grant, Kobe and company and Wade was the main player for him in Miami. Shaq got his best wins when Ewing, Robinson and company were retired and Hakeem was well past prime. Shaq always jealous. Started with Penny and the media calling Orlando Penny's team during season he started out hurt and so forth. Still great years but over the 4 ring thing too. Teamball wins. Jordan never beat the great 1980's NBA East teams due to 0 help.
4 rings are 4 rings, They end the argument. It's why we play sports. Gold medals are better than silver are better than bronze. Gold medals (Shaq) are better than zero medals (Chuck). Guys who win the gold medals know more about the sport than guys who never won one.
Nope. Let the big dog be a big dog.
Nobody wins alone, Shap was the best player on the court. U can shut your as mouth up.@dannynhl9441
Kenny looks so goofy with the facial modifications
People keep talking about Ant.
Man Minnesota as a whole is balling.
Kat. Reid. And that defense is suffocating
Katt has been way more consistent than Edwards.
The scariest thing about this series to me. Is that if the wolves win. What this win could do for KATs mental toughness mannnnnnnnn. Dude already as all the skills but if he gets rye mental toughness. He’s top 10 certified

@@brendonford3838really hope the mavs can do it, but okc is looking very solid
@@AlexK-rd1ki OKC could take that series quietly because of Shai's playmaking ability and because of Chet's rebounding/putback ability. IF they just let Chet stick in the paint and grab putbacks it might be a bad series for Dallas, but if they can force him to take tough shots midrange or hooks, it might be Dallas.
I've been high on Chet since he came into the league, but he's gotta bulk up A LOT this offseason in order to really go far.

Yeah but he got his rings because of koby and phil jackson
why would they trade and pay Rudy that money. Thats what we all thought back 2 years ago. I was wrong about that one,
Not just you. All these "analysts" were talking smack about the Wolves last year. Now they never mention it how wrong they were
I definitely thought the same thing not gonna lie
To be fair, the main “issue” with the trade was that KAT would be tasked with guarding 4’s full-time. And he was already viewed as a a sub-par defender against centers at best. But a lot of his improvement is cause Ant’s leadership. He definitely got KAT to man up and play better
Getting D-Lo out changed everything. It freed up Edwards to do his thing. Plus they got energy guys hopping in and bringing intensity off the bench. Good to see a team winning with d, not just hitting more threes than the opposition
Well the wolves just bodied the Nuggets without Rudy so ...
Jokic is not good defensively. I knew it would catch up to them. Plus I've noticed during the Laker series, they cannot continue to play like that & win a chip. It's almost as if they think they can turn the switch on. I've seen too many teams in sports fall by relying on that switch. Usually when that occur, it's time to retool.
dude cant even average 1 block a game as a 7foooter that is a tragedy to be that tall lol. whenever Jokic has to face a legit frontcourt he's done because now he has to play defense going up against real centers and not these hybrids like Davis is . Jokic would get destroyed by the 90s big men he's kind of soft and looks like the Pillsbury doughboy to me out there . this is how Dwight Howard shut him down
I told people people before this series started that Denver needs to massively improve. All the four games they won against the Lakers were very close. Two of the four were settled with Murray's last shots. The Lakers blew up 15+ points lead in 2 of the games. In fact, the Lakers led for most minutes. Denver just had their way in the last 3 minutes of those games and they won. If the Lakers had just a little bit better defense, they would have knocked out Denver.
Denver has met a real defensive team. They are getting swept.
Losing Bruce Brown and Jeff Green killed their bench scoring. Reggie Jackson ain’t been the same since 2021
His team are bums though. When he’s not out there they are even worse. Brucie B definitely hurt. They never replaced their good bench guys.

Agree with Chuck. Remember most losses by Denver last playoff run was when Jokic scored a lot cooking his defender 1-v-1.
1:02 - aaand Shaq is back with the four rings retort!
It’s all he ever does. He was a fantastic player and has a fun personality for the show, but he’s a terrible analyst.

@@arxeiapersonal8109 That’s your opinion. If you never played street ball then you wouldn’t understand. Good defense is physically the hardest part of basketball.
Nuggets got mauled last night, I haven’t seen a beating like that in a while. And I’m not talking about the score my god what a beating.
If I was a timberwolves fan I’d be really excited about these playoffs ! Congrats to Rudy heard he just had a little one .
05:00 "CC... Kentavious Caldwell-Pope" Nice save Chuck!
Man I'm addicted to it now
As a Lakers fan, I couldn't be happier. Go T-Wolves!!!!
I’m with you bro. The Nuggets talk so much trash. I hope they get swept 🧹
tell your Lakers team to play defense next time they meet Denver. Hope Lebron will learn to play defense like that.
@@twistergear9707 Yeah, highly doubtful.
@@twistergear9707that’s what the Nuggets need to hear right now. Looks like Minnesota is the Nuggets Daddy as things stand.
Petty 😂😂😂😂😂
Thank you Charles Berkeley TNT, you the best analysis in basketball you can see better than that. Thank you.
Where's your take after the third game? Can't wait to see how Chuck reacts to how the Nuggets responded to his "sweep" comments. 😅😂
🐺🐺🐺
Kenny analyst game is impeccable. This show needs his takes.
He had a great take today … Nuggets are not the same team from last year and if Murray can’t be a max player star then it’s a wrap because Wolves got the bodies and talent
@@Kurrency1911 He called that 2020 Western Conference finals. He said Rajon Rondo & D Howard were the keys to beating Denver. He knows the game for sure
The way that yall talked up Jokic I don’t wanna hear any excuses for him losing to the Timberwolves!
the only thing is everyone cares about winning more than jokic, if he goes home after this series his life goes on. basketballs just a job
The nuggets this bad. Shows how garbage lakers and LeBron really are.
@@southerndiscomfort171I kept telling the youngsters to stop the blasphemy,talking about Joker was better than the 90s centers
@@ernestmuric6719true
It's a TEAM game. TEAMS get rings. Denver? No bench. Period. GTFOH.
When Lakers had three 7 footers they also shut down Jocik. Jokic is abusing small ball teams, but he is nothing special against defensive big men.
Jokic is overrated just big and good vision
Remember when D.Howard was with Lakers, this Joker wasn’t the problem, once Joker knew that Dwight Howard is gone, Joker started his signature on Lakers to beat the lights out. Dwight Howard was a nightmare on Joker. Lakers never recovered since Dwight left.
@@TheAuditorMomenthe is special but he becomes beatable.
Let's not forget this is the best defense in the league by a stretch. They needed a dpoy rim protector another big and an array of perimeter defenders to stop him.
Not really, its more about quantity than quality here. Nuggets have no bigs besides Jokic.
@@MindAndMyth lakers didnt have any bigs at alll Davis is a hybrid not a true center and its easy when you dont have to face a true big
These wolves remind of my 2019 Toronto Raptors : a defensive juggernaut with a great coach and a leader that never quits. They will win it all this season.
Thank you, Minnesota Timberwolves for bringing the empresses on defense back to the league, there is something very special about a team when their star player actually gets down on defense.
Also, on a sidenote, the fact that Denver is getting beat down like this really has my brain broken, the NBA has been unpredictable the last two years lol
This yall 3× MVP?🤣 "Best player in the world".. "next dynasty".. going "back to back".. "top 15/10 all time".. but getting swept for a 3rd time in 4 years😂
Best player in the world is a joke with one ring.
0:41 Aaron Gordan with the Defense
He was playing defense…..how bout you work your way to playing in the NBA……CouchPotatoe
@@RL-uq8ge that wasnt defence
@@RL-uq8ge and i sit at a cpu all night if you must know
im glad the show still here... i love them..
Man. That’s a real time beat down.
As an outsider watching, I thought I was watching a Broncos v. Vikings football game - that's how physical it is to me.
With the Ant man with the green dot . Dude is built like a tank
Minnesota is looking like Denver last season. Very dominant but while Denver was best offense last season Wolves are best 2way team in league i cant see anyone beating them with that depth
Boston pretty deep too
Kenny probably has the best analysis out of all the guys
I'm surprised SHAQ didn't rip his head off, reminiscing the Rockets sweep over SHAQS Magic!!!
TNT has to do whatever it takes to keep this show
I don't think they can compete financially is the problem. NBC is massive
Gotta say No Diddy after that title Charles 😂
“Sick em Rex” Shaq kills me 😂
I at least liked that the refs let 'em play physical defense. Refreshing to watch
The NBA champions will come out of this series.
False
Swept
Don't worry mate, I got what you meant. I also feel the same way :)
Yes, The Champions will...not the Defending Champions! Ant Man and KAT was really locked in offensively.
Humiliated 😂😂😂
Who else coming back to this after they took a 3-2 lead on these bums?
I’m coming back to this after the wolves sent these frauds home 🤣🤣🤣 cry 🤣🤣
Crazy you didn’t delete this tbh
TWolves Are Playing Together,Great Matchup TWolves want it more
The T'Wolves had them out there looking like the Barbeque Chicken Nuggets.
