Those things in the basketball world

Different from the Eastern Conference Finals, everyone thought that the Western Conference Finals would be very intense, but few people could have imagined that the score would be 3:0 after three games, and the lead was the Mavericks, after all, in the pre-game prediction, only about 25% of fans thought that the Mavericks could cross the Timberwolves to enter the Finals, and the sum of the predictions that the Mavericks would advance 4:0 or 4:1 was less than 3%.

Offense is the best defense

If you want to talk about the backcourt combination with the most explosive scoring ability in the league, I can't think of any brother who can be stronger than the Eastern European combination, the individual control and passing are the top in the league, and the key ball ability of the big heart is also extremely prominent, and the undifferentiated singles ability can be said to be impossible to prevent when the hand is good.

But the Timberwolves still don't believe in this evil, but they do have this capital, relying on the strong individual defense ability on the outside and the best inside frame protector in the league, Durant + Booker + Beal in the first round of defense can't win a game, and the defending champion Murray + Porter in the second round defense is inaccurate and out of shape. But the performance in Eastern Europe took its toll on the Timberwolves, unlike Doncic and Irving, who played a good half in each of the previous two games. Today, except for Owen's daily fourth quarter, when the switch suddenly started, he took a few more points, and the rest of the time the two of them were wet with rain and dew, and you and I picked it one by one. There are no superfluous tactics, just a complete single or a cover misplaced single, but the Timberwolves just can't prevent it, and one goal after another makes the Mavericks' home voice higher and higher, and also makes the away team completely lose confidence.

The defensive strategy is effective to limit Huazi with all his might

In addition to playing hard, the Mavericks' defensive strategy has been relatively effective, and Kidd seems to be the same person as him in the regular season. From the beginning to the end, the playoffs adopt a two-man blocking and timely pinch strategy, not to cut off the connection between the ball-carrying core and others, but to let someone else handle the ball or complete the finish. So when Alexander repeatedly scored high points but couldn't win, the Timberwolves should realize that Edwards' ability to break the bag and pass the ball is not necessarily as strong as Alexander's, and others need to step up.

Jalen Williams may be forgiven for not giving Alexander enough support because of his youth, but Towns' performance in this series is like returning to the familiar gummy bear, when the Timberwolves have to rely on Reed or Lee Kyle to finish, it is conceivable that they are basically unable to win. If G4 Towns still can't put up a strong performance, it will be difficult for the Timberwolves not to be swept.

Competing for MVP? Only by helping each other can we go further

Irving's fan base is very large, and Doncic's repeated gambling alone in the regular season has made countless Irving fans dissatisfied, but as the cooperation between the two in the playoffs is getting better, fans on both sides have also become harmonious, after all, Irving himself has made it clear that he is willing to help the team succeed as a big brother and assist Doncic as a green leaf.

Doncic also respects Irving, and when asked by reporters before the Western Conference finals what has changed in the two Western Conference finals, a simple "we have Irving" has shown the fans everything.

So there is no MVP snatch at all, Irving gave up the ball to make Doncic play comfortable, and Doncic will also hand the ball to Irving in the fourth quarter to let him turn on the killing mode, such a lone ranger is indeed terrifying.

epilogue

The game isn't over yet, it's too early to talk about the MVP, and there's still a lot of suspense about who will make it to the Finals, for Tatum and Brown, and for Doncic and Irving, and it's all about winning the next game.
