In Games 1 + 2, the Wolves got to play defense how they wanted â Gobert on Gordon to spy on Jokic, and Gobert then being at the rim guarding Gordon allowing the Wolves guards to pressure the hell out of the ball because they know they have backup. The best kind of backup.

Rudy Gobert on Aaron Gordon’s shooting performance tonight:
“A lot of the shots he made were contested. If Gordon turns into Kobe Bryant for stretches, we got to be living with that. Those shots were contested, highly contested some of them. This is part of the game.” – 12:11 AM

Michael Malone could not say enough about Aaron Gordon’s performance tonight, especially his defense on Karl-Anthony Towns and Rudy Gobert. KAT was held to 5-for-18 shooting. – 10:48 PM

Nikola Jokic vs. Rudy Gobert is a terrible 1-on-1 matchup for the Timberwolves, and Jokic has completely solved Minnesota’s defense when Gobert is playing off of him. – 10:42 PM

The Nuggets are blitzing most Rudy Gobert pick and rolls because they are comfortable with allowing Gobert to make decisions off the short roll – 9:38 PM

Wolves get the Denver lead down to 11 as they’re finding a little more success attacking the Nuggets defense. Wolves employing the three big lineup right now with Towns-Gobert-Reid with Conley in foul trouble. They just decided to go tall. – 8:53 PM

Mike Conley is up to 3 fouls before the half which has forced the Timberwolves to put in KAT.
They have a lineup of Edwards, McDaniels, Naz Reid, KAT, and Rudy Gobert. – 8:48 PM
