Easy to see good things happening for the Wolves when they match the intensity and effort of the Thunder. The Wolves have enough talent to get this done, just need to stay focused and don't let the Thunder back in it.

Caruso leads the Playoffs in 3's off the bench. What a sniper.

OKC playing like a team up 2-0….need to ride out the early energy and walk down the Wolves.

OKC's twin tower lineup was a dud

Should that be a breakaway foul on SGA on that Gobert run to the rim?

This feels like a scheduled loss for OKC. The effort from MIN is 10x higher being down 0-2 and at home

Ant is killing the drop coverage and OKC's aggressive help defense.

Wish we could have seen some of this on the road but I hope we just get the win tonight, desperately needed.

OKC playing waaaay too cool this game. This is part of the youth. You know Minny comes out desperate to stay alive, but you don't go down 21 in the first quarter because it gives the Wolves extra confidence for game 4.

its amazing how much worse okc's offense is when the other team doesnt turn the ball over. probably too late for Minnesota but Indiana needs to take note
