A confession: I thought the Wolves were toast.
When they went down 58-38 after a Jamal Murray corner three-pointer in the third quarter to Denver in Sunday's Game 7, I muttered to nobody in particular that the game was over. The narratives were already forming in my head: A nice run, a step forward, but they just weren't quite ready for this stage.
Less than an hour later, the narrative and history were rewritten.
No team had come back from the halftime deficit the size the Wolves faced (15 points) to win a Game 7 in the NBA playoffs.
