Wolves will win Game 5 by about 20 points.

Minnesota a team that needs BBIQ like the 2010s Thunder

GG Minny. Edwards and Towns stepped up.

3-1 Minny. No rest for Luka. Celtics rejoice.

If there was ever a 3-0 comeback, it has to be this one, right? Luka is already injured and limited, they lost Lively in game 3 who was their best on/off player, and all games have come down to the last minute.

Honestly, the key to Minnesota pulling this off was their decision to trap both Luka and Kyrie in the clutch and force them to pass the ball every time. They are likely up 3-1 in this series had they done it earlier.
