Game 3, 4/25: Lakers at Timberwolves, 8:30 pm

[Klomp]

Luka, LeBron and Reaves all played 40-41 minutes, which should affect them in the next game in less than two days.

Less than 48 hours!

You mean there isn't a month off between games this time?

Wolves win in the clutch!

Most clutch we have been all season. Special thanks to Orange Julius and Jaden Swishdaniels, they carried us and Ant brought it home.

[younggunsmn]

Have to think about starting Naz and Julius and bringing Rudy and maybe even Mike off the bench the rest of this series.
We may have figured some things out defending Doncic too.

Julius Randle's effort so far this series has been tremendous.
He's been a definite plus on the court and I haven't been able to say that consistently during the regular season.

In games when Jaden, Naz, and Donte all play well we are very hard to beat.

We got vintage Lebron James and vintage LA whistle tonight and we still came out on top.

Impressive win. Hats off Wolves.

[KGdaBom]

Take a look at LeBron's box score. It was a fantasy basketball players dream. Wolves overcome it.

LeBron unreal tonight on offense.

[Guest84]

An aggressive Jaden is the difference. When he’s not waiting on others it pays dividends. But the timely shots from Naz were big as well.

If wolves clean it up they should honestly win with low difficulty.

I still feel they don’t pressure Luka enough. Hit him every time down the floor, offense and defense

All aspects really. Defense and rebounding too, even if he got a lot of help with the whistle on all that "defending".

I believe our skill sets match up superbly against the Lakers. We should win in 5.

[Domejandro]

Julius Randle has honestly been a beast this series. He has been extremely physical on defense, does a great job facilitating to his teammates, and has stretches where he takes over when Minnesota starts to stagnate.

He had steals, blocks and rebounds. So yeah defense too I suppose.

[Mattya]

56 paint points to 26 and we only shot 1 more free throw is wild

[guest81]

Just a huge game. Had to have it. Lakers have to be burned out for game 4. Take that and wolves win in 5

The KAT trade could prove to be a stroke of genius. I know we took a step back this year regular season, but all that matters is the playoffs. I think we are this years Mavericks. Time will tell.

Lakers have their backs against the wall. Next game for them is a must win.

Wolves didn't play that hot, but still overcame a monster game from Lebron.

Ant still needs to be better..

[guest81]

Credit to the Lakers too. There was like 4 times where it looked like the wolves were going to pull away and the Lakers responded. But the wolves look like the clear better team to me

He is historically below average defender, and his overall defensive effort was poor during the RS.

Randle has been fantastic in the PO.

He is playing for a contract. Connelly is smart enough to recognize what Julius is up to..

[karch34]

Even if it doesn’t work out for us McDaniels leap is huge long term.
