Minnesota is basically playing 3x5 offensively when Gobert and Conley are on the floor. Those are by far the 2 worst offensive starters left in the Playoffs outside of maybe Mitchell Robinson.

Conley hasn't been consistently good this playoff run, but he's hardly a negative offensively. He's still a strong decision maker who provides spacing.

What point will the OKC Thunder give up and realize it’s better to conserve their energy for Game 4? Maybe early third?

Now that's the Timberwolves I expected to see when I picked them to take the series in 7. It's still possible!

I think it has something to do with that OKC commercial where they all wear the same jacket. A very subtle troll.

I don't know. Knicks basically playing 4 on 5 when on defense because of KAT

Very improbable yeah. But this is a good start, win by 30 to 40 pts tonight, and maybe steal a close game in Game 4. Hope that momentum is carried to Game 5. Tough task, but doable.

His free throw stroke is superior to Mitchell Robinson's.

Conley is the only Wolves player in the positive on +/- column in the first 2 games, so yeah, to say he's an issue is just wrong.

Who wins Game 3?
