Big props to the WOLVES for not giving up and still dethroned the Champs. This series felt like an NBA finals matchup

This was probably one of the most impressive comebacks in a Game 7 that I've ever seen in my life. The Wolves were down by 20 in the 2nd half against the defending champions on the road.

EVERY player had a momentum-changing play. Really a team effort. Salute Wolves

Blowing a 20 point lead in a game 7 at home is wicked

[Yabadabedoe]

When Gobert hit that fadeaway i knew it was over 😅

Ant: "not gonna lie they had us in the first half"

[perryv]

Soon as he said what would kill you is a offensive rebound Kat comes in from the clouds and puts it back in 😂

[Los]

Somebody said after game 5 “Joker is dunking, this series is over.”

No, when GOBERT is hitting clutch jump shots and FTs, your series is over 😂

[TrainsandTrucksProductions]

Wolves knew what they needed to do and they delivered!

[wswann]

Refs were trying so hard for Denver with those calls and TWolves still pulled thru 💪🏿

[rolandbastian]

This is the game that can earn respect for the wolves and give them credit for defeating the champ

[josedouglas]

They can win the finals. The confidence from beating the defending champs gives them a major boost.

[Days-rujh]

I was watching the whole time.
Thought it was over by the half seein the gap get bigger and bigger. I ain’t got no words to say anymore. DAMN

[minjod]

Jokic can finally get back to his horses. I'm so happy for him

[morganlee]

If you blow a 20 point lead at home you do not deserve to win. I've been pulling for the Nuggets all playoffs and making my voice heard, but that's the truth. They did not deserve to move on, while the Timberwolves did.

I can't point to bad officiating, flopping, or any kind of shenanigans. It was just great defense and a strong, clean team effort that brought Minnesota back, while Denver capitulated.

Much respect, Minnesota.👏

[FalconPunch-eecm]

What just happened, even Gobert was hitting crazy shots

[AZ.]

This was a good series nd one hell of a final series game

[whatintheworld]

Gobert literally turned into Jokic on the turn around fade away lmao 2:59

[Bbbbbbb]

Miller: What will kill you is an offensive rebound right now…

KAT: hold my beer

[confucius]

Wolves beat the defending champs 3 times on their home court!!! Go
