Super Heavy Artillery

The Timberwolves who lost two games exposed a lot of problems. Wiggins's downturn has not been able to find the feeling of playing in the playoffs. Although the other players are better, it is obvious that these players are not ready for the playoffs. Of the Timberwolves, only Butler and Belica seemed to have that energy. But the position of these two people in the Timberwolves is very embarrassing. Butler has long been dissatisfied with Wiggins' unpredictability! Although the contradictions in the Timberwolves locker room in the late regular season were strongly suppressed by Thibodeau, now that they have lost two games in a row and faced a situation of being swept away, all contradictions will break out again.

On the other hand, Thunder, which originally occupies a great advantage, is now connected to the two cities, and the momentum is like a rainbow. In the next two games, even if they are away games, their chances of winning are very high. All four games in the Western Conference are now 2:0. Of course, the Thunder, Rockets and Warriors are all leading, but the Blazers have some exceptions. They allowed the Pelicans to beat the Pelicans on their home court, winning two games in a row. It is really surprising. But in any case, the first round of the Western Conference playoffs will not last long. Under such circumstances, the Thunder would definitely not want to consume too much energy on the Timberwolves. They will definitely go all out and end these two games as soon as possible.

All this shows a problem: time for the Timberwolves is running out!

On April 20th, after the end of the second game, the Thunder team took a day off in Oklahoma, and then took a chartered flight to Minneapolis. Originally, the third match between the two sides was held on the evening of the 21st. But in order to avoid the long journey affecting the players' condition, Donovan deliberately set off one day earlier. After arriving in Minneapolis, Donovan did not arrange any training. It was just an hour earlier on the afternoon of the 21st to bring the players to the Timberwolves' appearance-Target Center Arena.

For this arena, An Luo is already familiar with it. He has played in this league for two seasons, and the teams that belong to the Western Conference have played against too many times. There are many devils in the west, but the Target Center Arena is not among them.

Throughout the warm-up training, he kept a stern face. Sufficient rest did not keep the players in a state that satisfied him. Especially Westbrook, his shooting is still not accurate. Whether it's mid-range or three-pointers, the feel is very poor. Although it is just pre-match training, it does not represent the state of the game. But Donovan still feels that this game will definitely not be as smooth as the previous two games.

In fact, this feeling is not just Donovan alone. Westbrook, Paul George and other playoff veterans know it well. No one will catch it, the more critical the situation, the greater the burst of energy.

Stepping into the target center arena again, An Luo felt a different atmosphere. Those Timberwolves fans who were fairly friendly in the regular season turned into wolves with grinning teeth, as if to tear the villains of An Luo into pieces. In the eyes of these Minnifendians, the Thunder are like a robber who invades themselves, taking away the fruits of all their hard work this season.

In this atmosphere, the Timberwolves players were inspired by the **** nature buried in their hearts. Under Butler's leadership, Yu Thunder launched a fierce battle. Although there is a huge gap in hard power, the Timberwolves have always had the hope of winning this game.

At the beginning of the game, Towns got a chance at the basket. Although Ya did not lead the home team under the defense at the time, he grabbed offensive rebounds. Subsequently, he did not play hard by himself, but threw the basketball into Teague's hands beyond the three-point line. Westbrook, who was originally responsible for marking, did not follow in time, resulting in Teague being empty in front of him when he received the ball. Robertson quickly rushed to Teague, who made a fake move, evaded Robertson's interference, pulled up and threw the ball.

"Huh~"

In three points! The Timberwolves took the lead.

"Russell, pay attention to your position! Don't miss anyone!" Donovan watched very anxiously. Although the game had just started, such a mistake was too bad. So he couldn't sit still, got up and walked to the sidelines, shouting a few words to Westbrook.

Looking back, Westbrook pushed the ball beyond the three-point line. The Thunder's first offense was the same tactic as the first two games. But this time it was Ya who came to a high position. Westbrook then went in to cover, but Teague's defense was very tight, and Towns at the basket did not follow him at all. His chance of a layup was so bad that he could only pass the ball. Paul George was the first stop, but he did not vote. Wiggins has become more active in this game~www.wuxiaspot.com~ He sticks directly to Paul George's face, and the physical confrontation is not at all down.

The basketball was finally passed to Anlow, who rushed to the top of the arc under the cover of Robertson and Adams. But just when he was about to take a shot, Butler leaned in with a charge, and it happened to be stuck at the moment An Luo took off. An Luo tried his best to avoid Butler's cover. But in a panic, he shot a three-pointer for the ball.

Donska took Adams and grabbed the ball. He tossed the basketball casually, and he delivered the basketball to Teague. But Teague is not the fastest Timberwolves. Butler reacted faster than him. However, the Thunder players were not slow to react. Westbrook overtook the car and got stuck in front of Teague, forcing him to slow down. But before Westbrook breathed a sigh of relief, Teague made another sudden acceleration. Westbrook was caught off guard by the opponent. At this time, Anlo, who followed Butler, had to give up Butler and return to defend Teague. But this was just drinking poison to quench his thirst. As Butler flew directly, An Luo knew that his choice was useless.

5:0, the Timberwolves started very smoothly.

The Timberwolves finally showed their sub-wolfness in this game. Their defense is not very good, but a lot of physical confrontation caused great interference to the Thunder players. In fact, the playoffs should be like this, but in the first two games, everyone hasn't come out of the regular season rhythm.

As the game progressed, Donovan's look became more and more unsightly. After two days, the two teams seemed to have switched. In this game, the Timberwolves played more like a well-prepared playoff team. The Thunder must make changes as soon as possible.
