NBA Gametime reacts to Minnesota Timberwolves beat Warriors 114-110; Curry 31Pts; A. Edwards 23 Pts
The Minnesota Timberwolves 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 he is what he is but Conley 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 an a nice night 23 points Nas Reed with 20 points 12 rebounds he’s stepping up in the a of no Carl Anthony towns 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 goingon to do his thing you hit around on 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 to much so now when C comes back now you plugged in a starter where with guys playing with confidence now coach fin is 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 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 mean 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 of 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 what you say Justin oh yeah it’s 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 Ro well how about this one yanis DMO oh gets past Chet the Milwaukee Bucks up 48 to 47 welcome on into the MX halftime show Lauren Jabara Isa Thomas Dennis Scott we got ourselves a really fun first half Giannis though had a
Double double Zeke based basically five minutes left in the second quarter I I mean we expect that from him and we talked about him earlier how what he going to do with him yeah right and who guards him how do you guard him no one
Has figured out what to do with him so we expect a double double from him and for and for OKC they’re shooting just a little bit off tonight but still a couple guys getting going yeah a couple guys getting going you know but to Z’s point when Giannis is playing more
Defense it loosens up things on the offensive end so that was a little of the slow start but coming downhill that’s the thing they have nobody for that so look for Coach dagn off to switch some things up in in a halftime Zeke to say let’s give up a couple early
Threes because every time he comes downhill it’s either a dunk or someone gets to the free throw line yeah on the other side you have a guy like Jaylen Williams Jay dub who really has been producing for this OKC team this season he’s the second leading scorer on OKC
Right behind SGA but he’s really coming to his own this year he’s definitely has coming to his own and and they’re featuring him not only are they featuring them they’re looking for him you know he shoots the ball well from the perimeter he takes it to the basket
He’s kind of like that their their go-to guy when when SGA doesn’t have the basketball so they expect for him to take a a multitude of shots and I like the way I like the way OKC has kind of built him up offensively also yeah I
Mean he has 13 points so far now through the first half another guy Josh giddy 15 points and I covered an OKC game a couple weeks ago Mark dagnal said that it’s really impressed him how Josh has been playing over the last couple of weeks because he hasn’t let his poor
Shooting this season really affect him especially when you see all the other young guys on your team rise up around him he said he’s kind of stayed Le level even killed and it’s been showing the last couple of weeks his numbers have been Up 3D Zeke you’ll love this as as
Elder statement said in here coach dagnal said I concentrate on what my guys can do not what they can’t do that’s why OKC in my opinion why they’re doing so well so now you see giddy handle the ball you see Jay dub handle the ball that gives SGA room to play
More defense get open shots or get easy finishes in the transition game when they get good stops so tonight which you got gidy with uh what five assists you got JW with three assists SJ is kind of chilling you down by one I like what OKC’s doing yeah they’re going to come
Back this second half but guess what Milwaukee Bucks defense they’ve been doing something too so we’re going to get into all of that coming up time to take our first break here on the AMX halftime report coming up after we got more games going on the sixth it’s the
Late night game against the Kings on the west coast right here on NBA TV couple good gam what fox and Maxi going at it oh yeah Kentucky on Kentucky crime we got ourselves a good game going on but today we have ourselves a really good game the OKC Thunder down one point to
The Milwaukee Bucks your expectations for Milwaukee and their defense who continue to impress here this game I mean right now they they’ve held OKC to 47 points in in the first half you know can they continue that I believe they can I think Milwaukee is becoming a much
Better defensive team yeah what do you think about Milwaukee’s defense well one thing we understand about OKC they will move the basketball they not will be selfish with the ball that’s why you see giddy with five assists and jayw with three the question is now at a point of
Attack when they try to get back into the paint do they build their wall convers like they’re trying to build a wall on Giannis both teams have to do that in the second half yeah I know allar three Allstar ma 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 Tyrese Maxi for a second because obviously no Joel embiid’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 the start of the Season could he Elevate his game yeah and we all said yes he can right he elevated got to the all-star game and then MB goes down and
We say could he elev this game a little bit more to keep the team afloat yes he can and what he’s been 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 Nick nurse yeah the 76ers holding it together right now without Joel and V let’s send you out to Tois spting out of nowhere whirling BL shattering blow No Escape head her Down let pick this up up Nowhere H stor Pi ultimate an enemy has been defeated out of nowhere Blow of Nowhere No Escape Yes s an enemy has been defeated an enemy has been defeated double kill No Escape out of nowhere shattering blow nowhere onlly Pi onlly shut down ch come to my turn and I’ll protect you First Blood you have defeated an enemy an enemy has been defeated ultimate time flies an ally has been defeated Onslaught feels so familiar time to GA come to my Turn your team has destroyed a tower an ally has been defeated blood back double kill triple Kill Bast come to my turn Al fire it will you have been defeated
