Inside The NBA | Shaq SHOCKED Timberwolves beat Warriors 114-110; Edwards 23 Pts; Curry 31 Pts
Wolves earned their fourth win in the last five games 114 to 110 over the Golden State Warriors they were down as many as 12 points in the first half to the Warriors they ended up storming back you heard it they only had one turnover in the fourth quarter that’s just some
Really clutch play 21 made threes 12 of those in the second half I mean you you you got to give the Timberwolves a lot of credit for the way that they’ve been able to to weather the storm with Town’s injury and then I’m I’m I’m just going
To keep speaking highly of of Mike connley because you know we we talk a lot about Ant-Man and and he is what he is but connley is a steady and influence and he’s the one that really makes it all work and so often throughout his basketball career he’s been overlooked
But wherever he goes his teams win yeah they definitely do and Ant-Man obviously having a a nice night 23 points Nas Reed with 20 points 12 rebounds he’s stepping up in the absence of no Carl Anthony town Lord for the last uh know couple weeks Zeke kind of reminded a casual fan how
Important when your general manager finds someone on the bench and the Casual fan may not know who he is but how impactful he is on your team so when cat went down most people thought t-s will fall down drastically ant-man’s gonna do his thing you hit around the
Head Mike connley is the the confidence on that team to be the Savvy vet but n Reed comes off the bench plugs and play and pretty much don’t miss too much so now when cat comes comes back now you plugged in a starter where with guys playing with confidence now coach finer
Sitting over like okay I got all my guys guys got experience guys have played now let’s put this all together and prove people wrong that we can go deep in the Western Conference now one quick comment about the Golden State Warriors should they be worried now they were up 12
Points in the first half they’re only a game and a half um ahead of the Houston Rockets for that 10th spot should they be worried absolutely I mean you know you you know they definitely hearing Footsteps in the dark right now I I love it I mean Houston is Houston is
Right there and they’re they’re young they’re playing with confidence and and they see a light at the end of the tunnel and they see a pathway into the play in and they’re going to go for it and you look at Golden State with with this road trip coming up you know every
Game right now is pressure and you know they definitely have players who know how to perform Under Pressure yeah but going down the stretch they do not want to be in this type a situation where every single game is a must-win for them does it almost put too much pressure on
The Golden State Warriors right now we we say Justin oh he has a lot of pressure because the Rockets has the easier schedule here yeah until April third well April 13th last game last games right so the Rockets with Oka they are locked in understanding to your
Point Zeke we’re knocking on the door the Warriors lost tonight we know we give LeBron and AD a lot of credit they’re going to play their lights out basketball but the Rockets have the easier schedule of the three teams fighting for those last two spots it will be interesting to see how these
Last three weeks play out the Golden State Warriors that was game one of this five game Road Trip time to take our first break here on the Kia postgame show we got a lot more basketball heading your way how about that guy huh putting on a show in Detroit Allstar two Allstar three
Allstar Max said I knocked them all out tonight Tyrese Maxi Tobias Harris lead the charge as they take the win 121 to 107 let’s get into Maxi for a second because obviously no Joel em be’s been out for this 25 game stretch with this win the Sixers improved to 10 and 15
Without him in the lineup but what have you thought about Tyrese Maxi in the season that he’s having this year you know the question was at they able to do and and like I said I give he and Tobias Harris a lot of credit for steadying the ship yeah keeping them afloat and
Keeping them in playoff position and it’s impressive to me too 19 of his 24 points in the second half it’s clutch he understands that the ball will be in his hands but when you’re a leader how do I make everyone else around him around me do better and that’s what the first
Option is and he understands that now yeah shout out Nick nurse too yes sir great job great job Nick nurse yeah the right here on NBA TV the Pacers taking on the Lakers in LA and right now the Lakers guys sitting at 9th in the Western Conference they want to hold on
To that spot I know the Warriors just lost tonight but makes them feel maybe a little bit more comfortable but the Lakers are playing really well winners of seven of their last 11 games what have you seen from them recently anth anony Davis playing well Lebron James
Playing well it’s that time of year and we we know you know from the Lakers past right when these two decide to amp it up they can go to another level and this is that this is that time of year you know March April where historically you look
At them and they they start to raise their game to another level and I expect them to do that tonight yeah they’ve seen each other one other time so far this season and it wasn’t even a regular season game it was the inseason tournament final where the Lakers
Dominated the Pacers this is the first of their two regular season matchups 3D what are your expectations for the Lakers tonight Zeke knows this they’ll probably show that video from End season tournament get a little motivation see what was then but it’s all about these last few games knowing that the rocket
Schedule we talked about earlier is is the lightest of the three team you throw the Warriors and Lakers in there so I look for LeBron to come out and put his impr in this game and make sure they get a good win yeah it’s going to be
Interesting to see how it plays out now on the other side you have the Indiana Pacers who roll on the offensive side defensively that’s where they need to tighten up the 25th defense in the NBA but what’s impressed you most about the Pacers in their play they’re trying to
Keep that six spot to not be in one of those playin games in the East they they’re they’re thrust and they continuance to be an offensive Juggernaut yeah they they’ve claimed their identity their identity right now is to push the pace and be a great offensive team and they’re they’re one
Of the best offensive teams in the league now we know Carlile is a good coach yeah can they find the balance between being a good offensive team and a good defensive team I think they’ll need to work on that down the stretch and 3D Miles Turner has something to say
About the defensive side because he’s averaging two and a half blocks per game in the month of March he’s really getting up there and and try to will that defensive side for the Pacers I think to Zeke’s point Rick Carla understand can we get timely stops in
Dallas he knew how to mix in zones when Dirk was there to mix some things up cuz he wasn’t a great Defender so same thing with halberton halberton is going to stir that coffee up real good for you he coffee drinkers out there and they’re going to get out and run and their
Offense is their defense but in the fourth quarter if the game’s tight can you get enough timely stops to close out the ball game that’s your remedy for success and for a guy like Pascal siakam too he really feels like he’s jelled into this Pacers lineup what have you
Thought about him and his contributions you need a guy like him down the stretch because a he has Championship DNA yeah he’s performed well in the playoffs and when the game slows down you can throw him the basketball and say get me a shot not necessarily a wild three-point shot
But you can isolate him at the foul line he’s got good one-on-one moves he can get to the basket and then he can make a free throw for you now if you go back to the in in season Tournament game if I’m miles he’s going to look at that game
Say wait a minute ad gave me a 4020 burger with some extra fries and sauce so did he put some pickles on yeah little pick watching that game and how explosive he was and how the Lakers won that game that should be a one I want to
Be a get back game for mil say you know what you’re only getting a few fries just time less of sauce let me ask a question why why we talking about food so much I’m hungry you got you got you got the 40 piece chicken you got you got
The the burger with the fries and everything are y’all h i mean what’s going on I ain’t going to lie basketball show I had me a nice wag Burger he’s having a wagon Burger he’s having cookies I’m like trying to be healthy over here that was good y I’m sorry don’t tell I
Ain’t had no cookies he hasy y he he doesn’t have no milk he doesn’t have no milk time to take another break here on the vot team show coming up after we got more to talk about Anthony Edwards in the Minnesota timber wall superhero in the bu fore for be tomor for for
