Huazi lost helper turned into an audience on the field. Can the Timberwolves challenge 4.3% of the desperate situation

The Minnesota Timberwolves can always burst out with their strongest combat power in the darkest moments throughout the season. Perhaps this is a character flaw, and he always leaves himself to save himself when the guillotine is about to fall; or perhaps this kind of resilience to survive in desperate situations is really valuable. In the face of this 68-win Thunder, Wolves are facing the most difficult situation in team history: they are 1-3 behind in the Western Conference Finals, just one step away from being eliminated.

G4 Timberwolves crushed their opponents in multiple data: 51% shooting percentage, 44% three-pointers, dominant rebounds, higher penalty area/fast attack/second offense, 8 more assists, 3 more turnovers, and 6 more free throws. The substitute defeated the Thunder 64-27. However, when the final whistle sounded, the Thunder narrowly won 128 to 126 proved that they were also well versed in the way of survival in adversity. Among the 283 teams in NBA history, only 13 were reversed.

Wolves were not only forced to the edge of the cliff, but also used their nails to snatch the rock wall and survived. "All the year says we're done," Divinchenzo, who scored 21 points + 5 three-pointers, said, "The locker room is always united, and we will fight to the death on Wednesday. "

Although Divinchenzo broke the playoff drought, Alexander Walker scored 23+6 against cousin SGA, McDaniels scored 22 points + 4 steals, and the team scored 18 three-pointers, the two stars were depressed and lost: Edwards (16 points + 5 mistakes) and Randle (5 points + 5 mistakes) combined with 21 points + 10 mistakes, while SGA (40 points) and Jaylen Williams (34 points) scored 74 points and only 7 mistakes. The Thunder Double Stars scored 25 points in the last quarter vs. The Wolves' double core scored 6 points.

"I am like an audience," Randle, who was 1 out of 7, admitted that "we must find a way to participate in the offense. " This forward, who performed well in the first two rounds of the playoffs, now reappears in key games. Edwards was deeply trapped in defensive siege, with only 13 moves in the game, two fatal mistakes in the final quarter, and his defensive focus also dropped sharply. In contrast, SGA used a comprehensive performance of 40+10+9 and scored the victory in the last 14 seconds.

23 turnovers + 19 offensive rebounds were lost, which allowed the Thunder to make 11 more phone calls, and 22-point mistakes became a fatal injury to lose two points. Despite snatching 9 offensive rebounds in the final quarter, Divincenzo/Walker/McDaniels' key three-pointer scored the gap to 2 points, the Thunder two stars always control the situation. Now the Timberwolves will face the Thunder, who has never lost three consecutive times this season and has only 7 losses at home. In a desperate situation with a historical winning rate of only 4.6%, can they continue to write a counterattack legend?
