Would you rather face Denver, or Minny?
Not looking ahead, but easily Denver. Without Kleber we will struggle to play Gobert off the floor. KAT seems to have gotten over the play-off jitters, maybe thanks to the leadership of Conley or the fact that he is comfortably defering to Ant. Also people forget that McDaniels literally punched himself out of the play-offs last year. And imho he is the actual best defender in the league. Match-up wise the Wolves are a nightmare for us. McDaniels on a hurt Luka. Ant on Kyrie. The Twin Towers behind. They have a deep bench, too. Compare that to the Nuggets. No bench like us. Jones and Washington to fight a hobbled Murray. Lively/Gafford to battle Jokic. I think we might be able to do Denver. I don´t have much hope against the Wolves, because of Hurt Luka vs. McDaniels, no Kleber and the huge gap in bench quality.
