After the Wolves’ landslide victory, Charles Barkley refused to mince words. The Minnesota Timberwolves took a 2-0 lead in the series with a clinical demolition of the defending champions, the Denver Nuggets. Anthony Edwards and Karl-Anthony Towns, along with their strong defenders, equaled Nikola Jokić & Co. for a 106-80 victory. Following the game, Barkley made a big move by calling the series.

During the post-game review with the Inside Guys crew, Chuck praised the 22-year-old. But first he removed Jokic’s MVP crown. He stated, “No disrespect, they do not have an advantage. The MVP is being outplayed. “They have no advantage anywhere.” He went on to say that the series “completely changed my mind.” They will win this series. That person (Anthony Edwards). The bulldog. He might as well be a wolf; he ain’t playing around.”
