On May 21, the G1 Timberwolves defeated the Thunder 88:114 away in the NBA Playoffs Western Conference Finals, and fell 0-1 behind in the series. Timberwolves star Edwards was interviewed by the US media and publicly talked about the specific situation of the game: "
I need to take responsibility for the loss of this game. My shooting condition is very sluggish, and I play like shit. We rely too much on three-point shooting, but it is obvious that everyone's shooting percentage is very failed today. We should take the initiative to strengthen the aggressiveness of the offense and find opportunities to score and break the deadlock. We only played a good ball in the half, and the second half belonged to the rhythm of the Thunder!"
"Although we questioned that Alexander had free throws. There are too many points, but this is his personal tactical characteristics. The referee also acknowledged that all this. There is no doubt that he played smarter than me. He always sprinted into the inside to look for free throw opportunities when he felt bad. Especially in the second half, they played aggressively and dominantly, which reversed the game! ”
Edwards played 36 minutes and 34 seconds in this game, shooting 5 of 13 shots, 3 of 8 three-pointers, and 5 of 7 free throws, scoring 18 points + 9 rebounds + 3 assists + 1 block, especially in the fourth quarter, with almost no contribution value on the court, and the plus and minus value on the court was -23. Today, the Timberwolves not only Edwards and Conley made a blacksmith, but the substitute lineup also made 9 of 41 shots. It is difficult to win with such a shooting percentage. They made 15 of 51 three-pointers in this game, relying too much on three-pointers, making the same mistake as the Celtics!
