Unexpectedly, the Suns lost again, after this game they have been 0-4 out of the game, and they are also the first team to be swept so far in this year's playoffs, as a comparison, the Lakers also fell behind the Nuggets 0-3, but the G4 Lakers won one game, and the Suns couldn't. In terms of statistics, Durant played 46 minutes, 12-of-17, 2-of-3 three-pointers, and 7-of-9 free throws to finish with 33 points, 9 rebounds, 5 assists and 4 blocks.

Durant is really not easy today, to score, to defend, and to grab rebounds, basically dare not rest, by the end of the quarter has been seriously overdrawn, faltering, even gasping for breath during the timeout, Vogel has no tactics, can only die Durant. Booker had 49 points, 5 rebounds, 6 assists, 2 steals, 1 block and 2 turnovers, and also played 45 minutes.

To put it bluntly, this battle is Durant and Booker take turns to attack, others watch the play, Beal is embarrassed to score only 9 points in 4 of 13, the hand feels very bad, and he is deeply troubled by fouls, Durant and Booker are smoking, Beal played a mess in the last quarter, unable to attack and defend, all kinds of mistakes, but as long as you can stand up, maybe the Suns will win, and after 6 fouls in the final quarter, Beal left the court in tears, the Suns finally saw the reality, it turned out that trading Paul last offseason was the wrong choice, although Beal is young and has strong scoring ability, but it is unstable。

The important thing is to destroy the chemistry of the Suns, resulting in the big three now can only take turns to play alone, if Paul does not go, I dare not say that the solar beat the Timberwolves, but it will certainly not be swept away. Nurkic had 9 points, 8 rebounds and 5 assists, O'Neal had 6 points and 6 rebounds, Roundface Deng had 6 points, and Okogie had 4 points and 3 rebounds. Goodbye Durant, come back next season, I wonder if he will continue to play for the Suns.

Timberwolves stats: Edwards scored 40 points, 9 rebounds, 6 assists, 2 blocks and 2 turnovers on 13-of-23 shooting, including 15 points in the third quarter and 16 points in the final quarter, and has cut 8 30+ times in the playoffs, surpassing Garnett to rise to the first place in Timberwolves history.

Swept the Suns 4-0, congratulations to the Timberwolves, their opponent in the second round is likely to be the Nuggets.
