Line Drive Jumper by Morris never had a chance Minnesota shooting just 40% from the field Milwaukee 48 as Lillard gets ready to come back into the ball game tenmo spins on Reed lays it up and started seeing a sports psychologist realized he never had a chance to grieve
His father’s death and really planted The Siege to their Championship the following year towns fires got it Carl Anthony towns having a career Year from downtown at 44% he’s got 12 what’s it going to take for Lil to get un trctor offensively well he’s 0 for five well

To poris and he knocks it home High to 36 Milwaukee still in that zone defense and that’s how they attack it in more important as a roll threat creating op opportunities for the three-point shot Minnesota leading by two Giannis Sprints into the ball screen Dame rejects it and a good decision in
Discernment by Dame Lillard with his first field goal Alexander Walker turned the corner and scored it Doc Rivers was calling them to get out of their zone go into man but once they went into man they weren’t communicating what their assignments were Lillard draws the sees the value and the
Talents of a diverse Universe here’s Morris off the screen towns lobs it up for go there it is again ches of sustainability when you’ve got a first place team in the Western Conference when you take a look at the big picture of your run here well yeah I
Mean look the West is tough and it and and it’s wide open this year but one of the things we wanted to focus on was continuity and stability and we’ve done that with Tim Conley Chris Finch Mike Conley and the core of this group I mean I didn’t
Realize how fun uh Minnesota is and and the vibration of the city um it’s a great Sports town and they’re hungry and thirsty for for a championship and a sustainable winner Alex what are your thoughts when you hear the face of the franchise Anthony Edwards just 22 years
Old say hey I’m here for the Long Haul how heartening is that for you I’m opportunity and he’s a wonderful kid works hard humble and uh we’re excited to have him obviously well you mentioned kg it’s starting to feel the Minnesota Timberwolves who lead by five right now
Part of the new ownership group here big things happening in Minneapolis here’s Anderson out top Milwaukee has come out of that zone defense Richard towns has that shot a little bit strong and here’s Giannis crosses over on Anderson Lopez had an ocean then pulls and this one comes off Brook Lopez now
Four for six from Deep Anderson with a mismatch on Lillard they run their split action towns had it knocked Away by Crowder it’ll stay at that end they are putting forth more effort than they were a couple of weeks ago they’re trying to get it right because they understand that the defense
Is not going to get it done and Anthony Edwards as you said a little bit of a slow start he must have heard you there he does not lack for confidence and look at him sitting his stance defensively on Lillard Lillard had it blocked to the
Rim whistling a FR he said it was a unique and positive experience for the two of them which rich I got to believe they certainly need at this point no I I I completely agree camaraderie is a big part of winning championships even this early buck group so many of them were
Together for multiple years when you think about that they brought in Drew holiday yes but Dame Lillard is a very different piece so he’s got to feel comfortable with this system he said it was going to take a little bit of time that’s going to be a
Goal a slowmo and slowmo that time go under four and a half to go Carl Anthony towns whips it Baseline to no read for three and a little bit short Lillard with the rebound the walk keep down down by four around the screen Lillard with the
Hesi comes off to Giannis who puts it home lead is down to two Edwards with Pace into the front court goes as soon as you feel that contact the ability to rise and finish that’s impressive some call him the future face of the league including a lot of his
Teammates even though Edward’s a little bit uncomfortable with the praise I feel like the future face thing has been coming around more and more ation mainly because the current faces are getting real old LeBron Steph Curry those guys so everyone’s looking for future Edwards 101 against Lillard Dame
With great resistance Edwards sprays it out to connley inside Anderson with the jump hook got it 20 20
