    On Monday night, Nikola Jokic and the reigning-champion Denver Nuggets were absolutely dismantled by the Minnesota Timberwolves on their home court.

    The Timberwolves, who now lead the series 2-0, held the Nuggets to a season-low 80 points in the 106-80 contest.

    After the game, Jokic was asked how his team will respond in Game 3 on Friday night.

    “I don’t know. We will see," he said.

    This response sparked similar reactions from fans around the league.

    "This team just doesn't care, all they wanted to do was beat the Lakers and go home," one wrote.

    "What? Dude is just going through the motions," another said.

    "I don't get him this year. Show any kind of emotion that makes sense," another added.

    "Yikes. I understand this is his nature. But in times like this it’s a absolute detriment to the team," another wrote.

    Many people had the Nuggets as their favorite to win this year's title. But with the start to this second-round series, the likelihood of a repeat continues to get slimmer and slimmer.

    Jokic and the Nuggets must now head into an electrified Target Center for Game 3 on Friday night.
