Exciting.

Okay, let's go to Minnesota.

They staved off elimination.

Yeah, I'm saying it.

Way to stave, boys.

Minnesota still leads the series 3-2, but Jokic with the triple-double as the Nuggets avoid elimination.

125-113 win against the Injured Wolves.

No Anthony Edwards, no Dante DiVincenzo.

but some role players for Denver obviously helped out.

It was Jokic.

I thought, we'll get into Jokic and Jamal Murray and all that, but other guys contributing, like Cam Johnson had his best game of the series so far.

He had been a bit of a ghost before that, but he had a good game.

Spencer Jones coming through.

Yeah, had a bunch of threes there in that third quarter, and even Tyus Jones getting dusted off and...

Given David Adleman, at least another guy could dribble and bring up the ball and play make and take a little bit of the pressure off of Jamal and maybe Jokic with at least just bringing it up.

So anyway, he got some contributions there and they survived.

Well, I have a little bit of faith because I thought that third quarter was really indicative and you could really see...

The flywheel effect that's kind of created by the Timberwolves not having their starting backcourt.

They're really disorganized on offense.

They don't know exactly who they should be getting the ball to attack.
