The Timberwolves' lives hang by a thread

Of the only four teams left in the playoffs, two teams are either unsuccessful or unsuccessful. One is the Boston Celtics, a team that has been the favourites every season and has ended up running out of harmon. The other is the Minnesota Timberwolves, the dark horses of the West this season. Why these two teams? Because the salary space of both teams will explode next season, and if there is no championship to press the bottom of the box, there should be no management willing to continue to keep the roster, even if they are successful enough.

The Timberwolves lost their first home court, and the individual abilities of Irving and Doncic are still helpless. If you talk about the strongest scoring combination in the playoffs, there is Durant Booker in the league today who can compete with Irving Doncic, but when it comes to the strongest combination of offense with the ball, then no one can compare to Irving Doncic's combination.

Game 2 of the Western Conference Finals

The second game of the series is undoubtedly a backwater battle for the Timberwolves, and once they lose their home court again, then the team will come to the edge of the cliff. At the beginning of the first quarter, the Timberwolves were on fire, Edwards got 10 points, 3 rebounds and 2 assists, Gobert had 6 points, 3 rebounds and 2 assists, and the team scored 32 points in a single quarter, while the Mavericks only scored 26 points, with Doncic scoring 9 points, 2 rebounds and 2 assists, Gafford 6 points and 1 rebound, and Irving only 4 points, 1 rebound and 1 assist. After returning from the game in the second quarter, the Timberwolves continued to exert their strength, Conley had 8 points and 2 assists, Lee Kyle had 4 points, 2 rebounds and 2 assists, and Reed hit 2 three-pointers, and the team scored another 28 points in a single quarter, once taking an 18-point lead.

Irving still failed to find his form, Doncic had 7 points, 4 rebounds and 3 assists, but it took 9 shots to make the team only 22 points in a single quarter, and at halftime, the Mavericks trailed the Timberwolves by 12 points at 48-60. In the second half, Doncic continued to exert his strength, scoring 11 points, 2 rebounds and 3 assists on 4-of-6 shooting, leading the team to score 31 points in a single quarter and continuously narrowing the difference. The Timberwolves collapsed, and Edwards only had 2 points, 1 rebound and 3 assists on 1-of-4 shooting, but Reed hit a long-range three-pointer in the final minute to help the team maintain a seven-point lead.

In the final quarter that decided the outcome of the game, Irving once again showed his big heart, hitting three consecutive points, and scoring 10 points in a row to lead the team to complete the overtake. Reed also missed a shot outside the three-point line, and Huazi scored a layup to help the Timberwolves overtake by 3 points. Lively received a dunk in the air, Conley threw and scored, Doncic made two free throws, Irving missed two key free throws, Huazi made two free throws, Irving continued his three-point life, Doncic missed a jump shot, but Huazi made a mistake, leaving the Mavericks with 12 seconds. Doncic directly named Gobert, shot directly outside the three-point line, and shot through the heart with one arrow! The Timberwolves had 3 seconds left, Huazi was caught after receiving the ball, Reed missed a three-point shot, and the Mavericks successfully defeated the Timberwolves 109-108.

Doncic made a three-point shot

That's Irving, that's Doncic, and that's where the stars are. Irving's magical performance in the final quarter, Doncic's three-point shot, allowed the Mavericks to complete a big comeback, leading the series 2-0, and both games were won on the road, and it may only be a matter of time before they advance to the Finals. After the whole game, Doncic got a triple-double of 32 points, 10 rebounds and 13 assists, Irving also had 20 points, 4 rebounds and 6 assists, scored 13 points in the final quarter, shot 4 of 5 three-pointers, Gafford had 16 points and 5 rebounds, Lively had 14 points, 9 rebounds and 2 assists, and Washington had 10 points and 5 rebounds.

The Timberwolves' two-pick title was reduced to the background, with Edwards only 21 points, five rebounds and seven assists on 5-of-17 shooting, and the rhetoric before the series began became a joke. Towns was largely abandoned in the final quarter, playing only 25 minutes in the game, with 15 points, 7 rebounds and 3 assists on 4-of-16 shooting. Gobert had 16 points, 10 rebounds and 2 assists, and was trained by Doncic in the final moments. Conley had 18 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists, and he really did his best. Reed, who was off the bench, played the best, with 23 points and 2 rebounds on 8-of-13 shooting and 7-of-9 three-point shooting, while Lee Kaier played only 20 minutes with 7 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists.
