Minnesota Timberwolves vs Cleveland Cavaliers Full Highlights 1st QTR| Mar 22 | NBA Season 2023-2024
Time you guys go ahead and get to Minnesota for some live action in the Target Center out to the first 15,000 fans in the building here’s Conley getting the scoring started how about that n might pick and roll switch happened George Nang in the lineup he actually did a nice job of guarding
Anthony Edwards in Cleveland a lot of guys guarded ant that game in fact it was a team effort they swarmed Anthony Edwards and did not score in the fourth quarter overtime in Cleveland Terris lbert short offensive rebound Allen garland from deep can hit and go the
Rebound good to have go back in the lineup he missed the last three games with that left rib spring n had that great scoring game against Cleveland last ball game is one of the reasons why I’m sure he’s in the starting lineup n’s had 34 on 10 of 18
Shooting Nas hit seven threes in that game seven of 11 for Nas Reed Point Blank missed there Darius scarland does not miss let’s go Darius Garland might have some of the brightest shoes I’ve ever seen on basketball court I don’t know if it’s showing up that well on television
That’s highlighter Orange right there man that’s something else NZ Reed loads up can’t hit the tray offensive board and big is really hurt Minnesota in fact fact his highest scoring average against the team is against Minnesota 22 and A2 points per game and Jared Allen’s one of the best rollers three-point battle
Cleveland makes the six most Michael so Minnesota did lose that battle in Cleveland 11 to8 and then got to play fast you know when you’re playing against a really good defensive team that’s one thing that Minnesota finds themselves against two teams want to play Fast against Minnesota because they
Don’t want to play against set defense so Minnesota controversially has to play Fast themselves this is a very good halfcourt defensive team in the Cleveland cavers even under man they were excellent in Cleveland against Minnesota they really did a great job of containing ant and taking away the roles of Rudy
Go Edwards got up to a fast start in that game in Cleveland but faded as the game went on that’ be in the second half but back to back Allen little pump fake will attack goar can’t hit Jared Allen it was a foul Fest and some of them were a little eyebrow
Raising in that game jar Allen shot 21 free throws in that game oh n the spin and the Finish By big ji a steal by Edwards but stepped out of bounds great activity early on so 33 points for Jared Allen I mean 21 free throws is ridiculous number and actually
When you went back and watch the video I was telling you this in Cleveland actually on that road trip is that there was something going on in those possessions where they were calling fouls but as Jaden gets the steal here Minnesota active here defensively re for three off
The heel Tap Out by go but into the hands of lever Garland for three no good rebound Nas Reed I love that a got out there to contest and that Nas got back and quickly and got the rebound in transition Edwards Baseline Drive bumped throws it and it’s noted out of bounds
That game in Cleveland was a rotating group and Isaac aoro got the main duty but then George Nang he switched on to him Caris LeVert played some as well they had a a high wall concept like Jared Allen did right there as Rudy converts so that’s the thing
When Anton got the basketball they played high wall so Jared Allen and pick and roll Jared Allen was at the point of attack up there defending it just was a big time flter of Anthony edwards’s offense shot clock winding down on the Cavaliers Garland at the free throw line over to a
Coro outside look Nang good from three George Nang 37% three-point shooter this season and he’s a high volume three-point shooter this year attempting about eight a game s Mar 41% shooting he’s their highest percentage guy Edwards off glass out so Samano Isaac Coro man shooting it really well from outside the ark
39.2% for Isaac aoro really improved his shooting ability scarland KN did not guard him and so now he’s become a very good Three Corner three-point shooter Reed stops on a dime and fouled no on Edward see has the match up here right Conley bounce pass go fouled hard and the foul
And you know anytime Rudy was inside too trying to get an offensive rebound he was being sandwiched by Defenders and they were trying to knock it out of his hands he still had four offensive rebounds but he worked for all of those points and it’s Nas Reed getting the
Start tonight instead of a Kyle Anderson could another weapon as far as the shooter be the reason why they wanted to go that way yeah I think so and then also just the scoring that Nas gives you in the starting lineup and also the extra length Minnesota’s had a problem
Rebounding whichever big was left over and so pretty well as the center as well to surgery hoping to see him sooner rather than later here’s Edwards on the drive left hand is good I like that so Mike on the ball in the ball screen so they’re getting up at the point of
Attack on Mike two playing and off the ball let him curl into action and find some space there Tap Away by Conley Levert recovers lberto on it Allen scen in the paint blocked by goar Allen has it shot clock winding down lbert got it off in
Time stayed below the roller so the pigs don’t roll behind him and did a great job of doing just that and then getting the initial block on the vert con to Reed who throws it outside to Edwards Edwards the Euro over to Conley Electric Slide can’t hit the tray
Rudy staying active offensive rebound McDaniels and he throws it right to aoro Edwards racing the other way battling and picks up the foul it’ll be his combinations he said this team te benefit from what they went through a season ago which wasn’t F of times without Carl Anthony town but they
Consistently had to redefine themselves yeah benefited a lot from that and I think that wall concept more of an aggressive hedging coverage as Jared Allen gets too easy you’re going to put yourself into rotation but that’s how Minnesota played and they did it very well that’s what they did against Denver
They played a more aggressive style they flew around and very successful at it nice tough two right there and the thing about it is that Minnesota’s got higher IQ now cuz these guys are all a couple years older and then you add Mike Conley into the mix and Monte Morris and nille
Alexander Walker and Kyle Anderson it’s a smart group good ball movement for the Cavs aoro missed everything now Edwards the other way pass the Midway Mark of this first quarter Nas Reed for three yes his hard out and he did a great job I mean I’m
Saying Nas and Luca if you just add Nas Reed into the mix cuz Luka had 11 points did a great job defensively if you just would have had a little more Firepower they could have beaten Denver in that game in my mind you just lost by three
Is J Allen having a heck of a start here six points five rebound got an assist Allen has been so good for the Cavaliers this season here’s Reed finding McDaniels off one leg and it drops for for Minnesota Monte Morris Kyle Anderson the Keel all getting ready to come in for
Minnesota heang the runner no good Allen running down the board lebert outside look Garland can’t hit and Edwards clears re back from that head injury and making the cat CLE now is already in double figes Marcus Morris into the mix for Cleveland Sam Merill as well you got to
Stay connected to Sam Merill that’s going to be Monte Morris’s job he’s got a quick Tri trigger and he’s been a hot player we did not see Morris in the first meeting between these two teams on March 8th he recently signed a 10-day contract Allan can hit but was fouled on
The you know what I mean like if you’re not really looking that close you can maybe say it’s a foul L don’t live by the way let’s get a quick message from blae a message brought to you by blae Fred in basketball you don’t rise the occasion you fall back on your
Preparation at Blaze we want to prepare and be there for our customers I’m on team Blaze oh you know just the women’s big 10 tournament was here at Target Center the that links team had on women’s basketball and really the WNBA in general but I’m saying that team on that
