If the NBA wants Wemby to be the face of the league stop putting his games to start at 9:30 eastern time and 8:30 central. Especially during the work week.

Yeah, let's have the East series played at 9:30 their time.

I just can’t imagine Ant coming back from the injury that quickly unless they shoot him up with all the pain killers (which they might). Playing through a bone bruise is nasty business. He would essentially be coming back to just be a decoy considering both knees are compromised right now.

I think he returns if the wolves somehow stole one game from us in the first 3 games, if they not, he isn't returning this season, imo.
 
I thought Denver often looked slow and lethargic against Minnesota, just like Houston often looked slow and lethargic against Los Angeles, and still it was a pretty competitive series between Denver and Minnesota. I don’t expect slowness and lethargy from the Spurs. We’ll just have to see what happens.

No. If he can play he will play. That's how these players are. They're competitive.

He probably wont be able to play for at least another week to 2 weeks minimum

The FO has the final say. If it was up to Ant he'd prolly be playing game one. Sometimes you have to save the players from themselves tbh.

Spurs in 4, maybe 5. If Ant returns, maybe they win one more game, but the Wolves don't have a chance in this series with all their injuries, unless the spurs beat themselves, imo. Denver lose that series because they are all bad defenders (like Mcdaniels say), and never adjust, their only decent defender is Aaron Gordon and he did'n play that much. And lets not underestimate us, the spurs would have beaten Denver too if we would have meet.

I feel like Minny has a favorable front court matchup with us. I don’t feel like there’s any team we should expect to sweep. We didn’t even sweep Portland and they don’t have a front court nearly as dynamic as Minny.

Fox is going to need to step up and abuse some switches.
 
As a pretty big Ant fan, I hope they don't rush him back tbh. Dude looked cooked playing with one good knee, shudder to think what he'd be risking with two bad ones against the Spurs.

It’s all about the LA market my dude. But as an east coaster I totally get the frustration
