7:01pm, 15 May 2025【Basketball】
1. Timberwolves head coach Fincher
talked about the team's difficult victory over the Warriors today, Fincher said: "I am proud of our players. We have experienced competition in the mud with them." In this game, both sides' shooting percentages were not high, and the scores were stalemate. The first quarter is 21. The Timberwolves found their touch in the second quarter and led 39-29 in the first half. However, in the next six minutes, the Timberwolves scored 1 point with Edwards' free throw and was led 42-40 by the Warriors in the first half. The Timberwolves fell behind by 5 points in the last quarter. Afterwards, Edwards stood up and gradually caught up with the score and overtook the final victory.
At the same time, Finch praised Randall's performance, saying that his value to the team is irreplaceable.
Randle was eye-catching in the last quarter of this game: 2 of 4 shots and scored 4 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists, becoming one of the key players in the team's victory.
In the whole game, Randall played for 40 minutes, made 10 of 23 shots, scored 24 points, 10 rebounds, 12 assists and 3 steals. This is his first triple-double in the playoffs in his career.
2. Warriors head coach Cole
When talking about the impact of Curry's absence on the team, Cole said: "In the absence of Curry, we are obviously a completely different team. We need to get offensive opportunities through defense."
Curry was absent due to injury in this game. The Warriors, who are good at three-pointers, became another team, making only one three-pointer in the first quarter, and 23 shots in the whole game, far lower than the average of 41.8 three-pointers in the first nine games of the playoffs. Losing a three-point advantage makes it difficult for the Warriors to win.
Speaking of Kumingga's performance, Kerr praised: "He played one of the best games of his career. He is very important to the team without Curry."
Today, Kumingga came on as a substitute, but gave the team great support: he played for 36 minutes, made 11 of 18 shots, 3 of 4 three-pointers, scored 30 points, 6 rebounds, 3 assists and 2 blocks. He is the only player in the team with a positive and negative value.
When asked how to deal with G4, Kerr said: "I like our defense and also the cooperation between Jimmy and Kumingga. Tomorrow we will rejuvenate and then make a comeback in G4."
In this game, due to the loss of Curry's offensive point, Kumingga took on more offensive tasks. He cooperated with Butler many times, and the team had the advantage.
The game has 4 minutes left, and the Warriors are behind 82-84. The 6 fouls of the Dream Chasing were sent off, which became the turning point of the game and was eventually reversed by the Timberwolves.
In this game, Butler and Kumingga scored a total of 63 points.
The Warriors and the Timberwolves' G4 will be held on the 13th, and both sides will have only one day off.
3.Edwards
Speaking of his performance, Edwards said: "I performed badly in the first half, but as long as you continue to shoot and maintain confidence, you will be fine."
Edwards was completely different from the game. Edwards scored only 8 points in the first half, 2 of 13 shots. The second half recovered, scored 28 points in 11 of 15 shots, and finally led the team to win.
4.Hilde
Speaking of Curry's absence, Hilde said: "No one can make up for his vacancy. He is the one favored by the angels and God."
Due to a thigh strain, Curry missed G2 and G3, and the Warriors lost their offensive firepower from the outside, losing both games.
In this game, Hilder played for 32 minutes, made 5 of 11 shots, 4 of 8 three-pointers, scored 14 points, 4 rebounds, 5 assists and 2 blocks.
Playoffs, Curry played in 8 games and averaged 22.6 points, 5.3 rebounds and 5.1 assists per game.
