On May 23, the NBA playoffs continued. In today's Western Conference semi-finals G2, the Timberwolves lost to the Thunder 103-118 away, falling behind 0-2 in the series.
Edwards has been aggravated since the start of the game. He made 10 shots in a single quarter but only scored 8 points, and the Timberwolves fell behind by 4 points. After the start of the second quarter, the Thunder withstood the Timberwolves counterattack, and the Wolves fell behind by 8 points at the end of the first half. In the third quarter, the Timberwolves made a mistake and collapsed, and was hit 35-21 by the Thunder in a single quarter, falling behind by more than 20 points. In the last quarter, although the Timberwolves narrowed the score difference for a while, they were unable to turn the tables and eventually lost again away.
After only 13 shots in the last game, Edwards significantly increased his shots today. He made 12 goals in total, including 1 of 9 three-pointers and 7 of 10 free throws, scoring a total of 32 points, 9 rebounds and 6 assists. It should be noted that Edwards surpassed Garnett in his career playoffs and rose to the top in team history. Unfortunately, Edwards failed to lead the team to victory on such a major milestone night. The Timberwolves suffered a defeat today, which is directly related to the poor performance of many players in the team, among which Randall is the team's number one sinner. He played 32 minutes today, making only 2 of 11 shots, including 0 of 3 three-pointers and 2 of 2 free throws, scoring only 6 points, 5 rebounds, 5 assists and 4 turnovers, and was hit by DNP in the final quarter. It should be noted that Randall averaged 24.3 points per game with a shooting percentage of 52.2% this year. It is difficult for him to win with such a performance today.
In addition, McDaniels scored 2 of 5 shots, Gobert scored 5 points and 9 rebounds, and Conley scored 1 of 6 shots and 3 points. In contrast, the Timberwolves bench recovered today, Reed scored 10 points and 8 rebounds, Divinchenzo scored 8 points, 3 rebounds and 3 assists, and Walker scored 17 points.
After losing today, the Timberwolves fell into a disadvantageous situation of falling behind 0-2. It should be noted that in the history of the team, the Timberwolves have never completed a comeback when they were behind 0-2. In last year's Western Conference Finals, they trailed the Mavericks 0-2 and were eventually swept by their opponent's gentlemen 1-4. This year they encountered a nearly similar situation again.
According to the schedule, the Timberwolves will return to home to face the Thunder on May 25. Can they win a game at home? Let's wait and see!
