Timberwolves getting blitzed by Nuggets? What did you expect?

We have entered the age of overanalysis.

Somewhere, today, there is a report on the Nuggets-Timberwolves series filled with advanced statistics and mathematical formulas that make simple sentences look more like Cyrillic than English.

Analytics are valuable. Statistics are essential. Sometimes, though, you don't need a supercomputer to figure out why one team is better than another. Sometimes you don't even need a No. 2 pencil.

The Denver Nuggets lead the Minnesota Timberwolves 3-0 in their first-round NBA playoff series because the Nuggets are excellent and the Timberwolves are not.

You don't need to look up anyone's PER or EFG% to figure this out.
