Zhang Jiawei: The Timberwolves 1-1 Warriors: What did they try?
2:40pm, 14 May 2025Basketball
Curry was injured, the Timberwolves were 1-1 Warriors.
Knowing that this game is difficult to win, Kerr directly rotated fourteen people to try the battle, right? ——The Warriors lost in the fifth game against the Rockets. Moody led the team to support the second half, so that the Rockets' starter must stay on the court. Today's first quarter was halfway through, and Edwards was even injured.
After trying the array, Kumingga and TJD were tried?
Previously, Kumingga, who made 9 of 28 shots in the playoffs, made 18 points in 8 of 11 shots today.
TJD, who made 4 of 5 shots in the playoffs, made 8 points and 6 fouls, made 6 of 6 shots today, with only 4 fouls.
The Warriors started 5-13, and Jimmy only made a shot in the first half of the quarter. Cole three ups and three downs: Kumingga + Spiece + Looney + Hilde + Moody, the first trial.
Kumingga defended the inside, but retreated and got stuck in the position, was caught in front of Divincenzo and Reed shot from a long time.
Kuming plus two free throws failed. Gobert made a rebound from the frontcourt.
Kuming made an extra shot, but made a mistake and was hit by Walker. One wave 2 to 13.
The experiment failed, so Cole immediately went five times.
In the second quarter, TJD was first given out: When Gobert + Randall was on the court, TJD could cut inside the attack and hold the meat.
When Gobert ended, Kumingga came to his senses. The Timberwolves' inside line was empty, and Zhu Menglian fed Kumingga incision and weak side protrusion.
Kor probably tried it out: Kumingga can't fight with Looney Moody, just play with the starter!
TJD is used to expand defense to fight the Timberwolves!
Kuminga started in the second half, then: Randall made a mistake, Boger made a quick pass to Kuuminga dunk; then another dunk. He chased the long shot that was 7 points away? Boger feeds him the left bottom corner. 7 points difference.
Then Divincenzo and McDan operated, pulled it apart, and Cole went up and down again. In the second half of the third quarter, it became TJD's incision stage: supplementary and incision. Another trial in the second half: Kumingga went against Edwards. When he defended the inside in the first half, it was difficult to take into account both the match, fill-up and rebounds; but the leader did not have to take into account other things. By relying on size and running and jumping, Edwards could not get rid of him.
TJD's technical configuration is a No. 4 body and No. 5 playing style, which can block space when playing. But when the Timberwolves expanded their defense, he cut inside; he made many fouls, but the Timberwolves' forward line also struggled to hit him.
In the future, Cole will probably make a fuss about Kumingga and TJD (incision).
Kuminga scored two goals in the first game: one Jimmy fed him a long shot from the left corner, and the other chased him a weak side cut inward.
Today, Zhu Meng and Boger took turns feeding him inward. Boger and Jimmy each gave him a long shot from the left bottom corner (he hit one). It's also a customized nutritious meal.
Timberwolves are of course practicing. Randall's highest single game in his playoff career. It is worth mentioning that there is a tactic that is obviously running for Walker.
- The Timberwolves mainly played three-pointers this season, but Edwards mainly played three-pointers with the ball. McDann had more work on cutting in the weak side, Conley was responsible for setting up the table, and the real three-pointer rain relied heavily on Reid's shot, Walker's weak side and Divincenzo. The rounds of the directional feeding Walker in the second half today can also be seen as the Timberwolves' hope forward: Coach Finch must still remember the embarrassment that the Timberwolves could not fight back when the Mavericks emptied McDan last year.
After all, Curry won't be back until the fifth game, and Edwards was injured for a while today, with a big score of 1 to 1. You are looking for three points of confidence, but I am calculating the configuration is reasonable.
The next few games are about who is crazy about the secret weapon.
