On May 17, it was reported that in the just-concluded NBA playoffs, the Nuggets lost 70-115 to the Timberwolves away, and the series was pulled to 3-3. It also produced five incredible.
The first, 26-2, this game, is of great importance to the Timberwolves, and they will go home if they lose. At the beginning of the game, the Timberwolves took the lead in scoring 2 points, and the Nuggets played a perfect 9-2 start, and then the Timberwolves' offense can be described as flowering inside and out, especially Edwards' 14 points in a single quarter, and the Timberwolves then played a wave of 26-2 offensive waves, and the Nuggets were directly stunned.
The second, 27-2, in the early part of the fourth quarter, the Nuggets bench has not scored, and the Timberwolves at this time played a wave of 27-2 attacks, and the difference was directly 40 points, and the Nuggets also replaced the bench early. It can be seen that the Timberwolves are ready today, and from 26-2 to 27-2, the Timberwolves played a 53-4 attack wave alive.
Third, Timberwolves player Edwards dreamed of returning to the top and rising again, scoring 14 points in a single quarter against the Nuggets, feeling hot, shooting 8 of 17 in the game, slashing 27 points, 4 rebounds and 4 assists, with a plus/minus of +43, which is the absolute hero of the team's lead and victory. Hanako's performance is incredible!
Fourth, the Nuggets backline is vulnerable, Murray shot 4 of 18, only 10 points, and the lowest plus/minus in the game was -32, it can be said that it is precisely because of Murray's slump that the Nuggets' overall guard line is directly dumb, Pope only has 9 points, and Holiday has 0 points. Compared with the Timberwolves, the Nuggets' guard line did not contribute much, which directly dragged down the team's offense, which also led to a 45-point defeat.
Fifth, the Timberwolves actually grabbed 62 rebounds in this game, and 15 three-pointers were even more terrifying, and the huge advantage also made the Nuggets collapse. Although the Nuggets team is not improving, it is easy for the Timberwolves to score points so easily, this is obviously not the style of the defending champions, I don't know how Coach Malone arranged it, or whether the Nuggets were broken down and the mentality was gone.
At present, the Timberwolves have created a lot of trouble for the defending champions, who would you be more optimistic about for the next 7-7 battle between the two teams?
