The Timberwolves literally slayed the Nuggets in their Game 2 win with incredible defense and the NBA world is going nuts.

The things the T-Wolves were doing on D were seriously wild.

One of the highlights was keeping Jamal Murray to 3-18 from the field.

Nikola Jokic was also limited to 16 points and 5-13 shooting from the field and went 0-1 from three-point range.

In two games against the Wolves, the big man is has committed 5.5 turnovers per game and has a plus-minus of -28. Yikes.

Minnesota looked in control all game and have certainly put the NBA on notice after embarrassing the defending champs on their own home court.

NBA Twitter is going crazy. Check some of the best posts below.

As to be expected, Anthony Edwards was a standout for the Wolves on offense, recording 27 points and seven assists.
