The Western Conference Finals played like the regular season, and the Timberwolves played without any blood. It s really ugly
7:28pm, 23 May 2025Basketball
The Western Conference Finals continued, the Thunder and the Timberwolves started playing G2. Although Edwards made 12 of 26 shots in the game, scoring 32 points, 9 rebounds, and 6 assists, it was really hard to blame. It felt like they were all invalid scores. The outside three-pointers were really inaccurate, and 1 of 8 three-pointers was criticized in the last game. It was a shock today, but he still had no choice but to lose. He was beaten without any temper and blood.
Alexander continued to perform well, playing for nearly 42 minutes today, 12 of 2 shots, 1 of 2 three-pointers, 13 of 15 free throws, scoring 38 points, 3 rebounds, 8 assists and 3 steals. Although there are many free throws today, there are indeed many shots that are real fouls. Of course, Alexander's ability to create fouls is not denied. But this style of play is indeed not likable, and there is still booing in the comment section, and the rational and irrational fans are booing.
To be honest, Alexander's style of playing is still very efficient. Scoring on the free throw line is both physically saving and efficient. The only thing that makes people feel unhappy is that it is too easy for him to get a whistle. He and Harden are really different from fouls. Harden is the kind of person who makes you feel that it is possible to cut it off and then deliberately let you foul. But Alexander felt that the cylinder was very large and he couldn't touch it, and his body movements were very exaggerated.
Today, the Timberwolves were beaten by the Thunder in every quarter, and no quarter was leading. I felt that their overall strength was suppressed. In the first half, the Timberwolves still used a large number of three-pointers, but the effect was obviously not good. They made 11 of 37 three-pointers in the game, ranking Maddan 4 of 7 and Walker 3 of 4, Huazi 1 of 9, Randle 0 of 3 of 3, Conley 1 of 4 of 4, and Divine 2 of 6, which really couldn't make a shot.
The Thunder three scored 20, Alexander scored 38 points, Jewey 26+10+5, Homgren 22, Dort 9 points, Caruso 9 points, Wallace 8 points, and more points bloomed. The Timberwolves really had no power to fight back.
The end of this game gives people a feeling that the Thunder is slowly eroding the Timberwolves, with a little advantage in each quarter, and then exerting force in the third quarter to completely open the score. Although the Timberwolves had a wave of chasing points in the fourth quarter, the score difference was too big, and in the end, Alexander ended the game with a few free throws. In the end, he defeated the Timberwolves 118-103, won the G2, and the big score reached 2-0. The situation was really good. If you follow this plot, the Timberwolves feel that the win will end at most.
See if the Timberwolves have any adjustments after returning to the home court! Personally, I think the Timberwolves should still play their advantages in the forward line and don’t float outside and throw three points. They are not a team that is good at three points. Huazi really throws all kinds of things. Randall has to use his body advantage to play, or use medium and long distance to punish him. You can't make a shot from the outside, and you don't break through the inside, and you lose both inside and outside. How can you win the game?
After the game, several hosts were discussing what else could the Timberwolves do? After analyzing it, we came to a conclusion, and seeing that the Timberwolves had no advantage in the match, we finally came to a conclusion: the Timberwolves must be more bloody, this is the Western Conference Final, and they must give them enough physical confrontation. Seeing that Alexander scored nearly 40 points, he didn't show any fatigue until the end. Why is this? Isn’t it just that there is no sufficient confrontation?
Do you think the Timberwolves still have a chance? Back at home, Alexander shouldn't have so many free throws. Can you learn how the Nuggets play? Others have finally fought to the tiebreak, isn’t it too embarrassing for you, Timberwolves to be swept 4-0? The game was so mediocre, it was really bloody, and this year's Western Conference Finals was really not good.
