On May 27, Beijing time, the NBA playoffs continued, and the Minnesota Timberwolves went to challenge the Dallas Mavericks on the road. The Mavericks have continuously captured the Timberwolves' home court, seizing the lead 2-0, and losing the Timberwolves again is equivalent to self-destruction of the future! In this game, the Mavericks took advantage of the home court to seize the opportunity, and the Timberwolves were always chasing points. The Mavericks extended their lead to double digits at the start of the second quarter, but Lively unexpectedly retired with an injury, and the Timberwolves then turned on the scoring mode and managed to erase the deficit at the end of the third quarter. Subsequently, the two teams fell into a tug-of-war, with the scores alternating leads. At the decisive moment, Doncic and Irving hit key shots in a row to establish the victory, while the Timberwolves were leaderless and had no chance to reverse. In the end, the Mavericks defeated the Timberwolves 116-107 to make the series 3-0.

The Timberwolves gave it a go, but they still fell into a passive situation at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends, even if Lively's injury made the Timberwolves turn the situation on the court for a while, but when it came to the critical moment that decided the outcome of the game, the Timberwolves still lacked the ability to dominate the game. Gobert, Reed, Lee Kyle, McDaniels and Conley did their best, shooting 26-of-39 from the field and scoring 55 points together, but the Timberwolves just relived yesterday's nightmare and once again felt the Mavericks' version of "simmer on a low fire, collect the juice on a big fire"! If you want to trace back to the source, the key is that the double champion is too pulled! First up was Towns, who was cleaned up by PJ Washington, who scored just 14 points on 5-of-18 shooting, 0-of-8 three-pointers, and 4-of-5 free throws, with 0 points in the final quarter. followed by Huazi, who contributed 26 points + 9 rebounds + 9 assists in the whole game, and completed a shocking dunk on Gafford head, but when the Eastern European combination took over the game at a critical moment, Huazi was invisible again, and only scored 2 points in the last 5 minutes, or an unguarded layup completed in garbage time!

On the Mavericks' side, the Eastern European group teamed up to train Gobert and gave Huazi a vivid superstar training experience lesson! Doncic played 41 minutes with knee and ankle injuries, shooting 10-of-20 (5-of-11 three-pointers) and 8-of-10 free throws, with 33 points + 7 rebounds + 5 assists + 5 steals + 1 block. Doncic's ability to see the trick doesn't need to be described too much, it seems that he just needs to copy and paste to fill the data column. Incredibly, Doncic's fighting spirit and defense were underestimated, he continued to fight with injuries, completed bloody steals again and again, and even dared to use his fat body to meet the impact of Huazi's tank and cause the opponent's offensive foul! According to statistics, Doncic is the second player in NBA playoff history to score at least 30 points + 5 rebounds + 5 assists + 5 steals + 5 three-pointers in a single game, and the first is Middleton!

Irving played 41 minutes, shooting 12-of-20 (3-of-6 from three-point range) and 6-of-8 from the free-throw line, scoring 33 points + 3 rebounds + 4 assists + 1 steal and having a plus/minus of +12. In the third game of the series, Owen kept switching modes - G1 scored 24 points in the first half, and G2 scored 13 points in the final quarter; In G3, Irving exploded the whole game directly, scoring 14 points in the first half and 19 points in the second half. Especially in the final quarter of the game, Irving scored 14 points plus Doncic scored 7 points in 100 shots to harvest the game, as a comparison, the Timberwolves only scored 20 points in the final quarter! At the same time, the Eastern European duo also achieved an NBA record that has been in the dust for 50 years! According to statistics, this is the third time that Doncic and Irving have scored 30+ in the same game in the playoffs this year, and they have become the first pair of starting backcourt pairs in the NBA to accomplish this feat in nearly 50 years!

Eastern European combinations are around, not envious of mandarin ducks and immortals! In the words of fans, those who question the inability of Eastern European groups to coexist, such as Yang Yi of the United States, should publicly apologize to the Mavericks! NBA legend Pierce pointed out sharply: The Eastern European combination may be the strongest offensive duo in NBA history, even stronger than Dooku, Jenway, and Dengwei; NBA coach Big Van Gundy said: The Eastern European combination is the most talented backcourt combination in NBA history; NBA champion Banchero also said bluntly: Doncic and Irving are both professional finishers! Yes, Doncic and Irving are too good at dominating the game, but their job is not done! After the game, Doncic and Irving hugged each other tightly and whispered: Win one more game, let's win one more game! With a 3-0 lead, the Mavericks have entered the finals with one foot, but Huazi and Downs have no way out, they must play a face-saving declaration game to have a decent farewell! Fans, what do you think about this? Leave me a comment to discuss.
