Say what you want about Towns but he is one of the best offensive bigs in the last decade, period.
The best 3-point shooter by a mile, and one of the best playmakers as well. Give the man his respect.

All this while still defending at an elite level, and upping his rebounding.

Here's a look at Towns' fouls on Jokic in their last handful of meetings. A LOT of these are super soft, especially when you're going up against a guy that bangs into you like Jokic.
Towns is going to have to play smarter AND get a better whistle to stay out of foul trouble.

With his 44 point performance last night Anthony Edwards ties Kobe Bryant with 10 30+ point playoff performances under 23 years old.
And he's doing it this year with 56/44/83 shooting splits. One of the best 22 year olds in NBA history.

This is a hilarious take. Looking at the best young players in the NBA (Luka, Shai, Ja, Ant) none of them were as good as Ant at his current age.

Don't believe in moral victories but that's as close as it gets. Down 3 bigs against 2-time MVP Jokic and on a back to back, yet managed to keep it close down to the final shot.

Jaden was everywhere last night, notching 8 contests. The Suns went 4-14 (28.6%) when guarded by Jaden.
Whether he's guarding Booker as he did for much of game 1, or trying to slow down KD, he's going to be key this series in shutting down their stars.

I would like to see him get up to ~7-8 3PA per game. He should be amongst these guys:
Curry: 11.8 3PA - 40.8%

Markkanen: 8.0 3PA - 40.1%

That was...wow. Picture perfect team defense. New season low in points allowed at 80.
- The active hands on this team is unparalleled. The ball is NEVER safe
- What Towns and Reid did to Jokic was incredible. He essentially threw in the towel after the first half
- NAW could not

Anthony Edwards with an absurd shot chart in the second half of tonight’s game.
He ended with a career high 5 dunks (all second half) and shot 11/11 from the line. When he’s aggressive like this nobody is stopping him.

Some positives from last night:
- Edwards drove the ball 18 times (averages 14), resulting in points 15/18 times (83%). He also only turned it over only once on the day. It will be important come playoffs for him to continue applying pressure and not settling.
- Mike Conley

KAT picked up his 4th foul late in the 3rd qtr of game 1, which on its face looks concerning given his history of foul trouble in the playoffs (averaging 4.2 fouls per game in the previous 2 series).
But watching the game, it was a much more composed KAT than previous playoffs.
