3-1, The Warriors are gone! Huazi s third quarter is too explosive, and he will directly defeat Wukuyong
1:14pm, 17 May 2025【Basketball】
The Timberwolves defeated the Warriors away. Today, the Warriors had a home advantage and had 20 free throws in the first half, but the gap in lineup strength was still there. Huazi + Randall was too hot in the offensive state, especially in the third quarter, Huazi exploded and beat the Warriors. Huazi made 6 of 8 in a single quarter, 3 of 5 in three-pointers, and scored 16 points. He has a strong ability to score continuously. He has various offensive methods, including breakthroughs, three-pointers, and strong attacks. At the end of the third quarter, the Timberwolves led the Warriors by 20 points.
The Warriors and the Timberwolves played back and forth in the first half. The boss and the penalty area were both advantageous, and they also made 17 of 20 free throws. Although Kumingga came on as a substitute, the effect was very good. He could break through the Timberwolves' inside line and scored the team's highest 16 points in the half. Butler was a little invisible in the first half, and Cole gave him plenty of rest, hoping that he would have the energy to lead the team to an offensive climax in the second half. But unexpectedly, Butler still didn't dare to play in the third quarter. Facing McDan's defense, he was very hesitant, and even if Gobert was in the interior, he couldn't make it. The game was really bad today.
In the last quarter, the Warriors had a wave of chasing points, using the Timberwolves' mistakes to make several counterattacks, and once chased to about 15 points, but the Timberwolves' advantage was still the Timberwolves' advantage. As long as Gobert doesn't come out, there will be an advantage in the inside. In addition, the Warriors did not have three-pointers, and the score was always around 15 points. Half of the game, the Warriors were 16 points behind the Timberwolves 89-105. If there was no one scoring burst, it felt like the situation was over.
Then the referee controlled the points, and the two teams ended the game in free throws!
Today, Cole has made a lineup adjustment, first of all, reducing rotations, and almost no Moody and Post. Moody played for a while in the last half of the quarter. Post failed to make a point, with only 8 main players rotating, and increased Looney's playing time to protect rebounds. In the last game, the Timberwolves grabbed 4.5% of the offensive rebounds, and today the Warriors' rebounds were dominant.
But the biggest problem is the offense. Although five players scored in double digits, only Kuming added one more than 20 points, and the rest were about 10 points. Butler, who scored 30+ in the last game, did not work well. He was very uncomfortable in the defense against McDans. The team's three-pointers were also very iron, and the threat of three-pointers was greatly reduced without Curry's three-pointer. And he really couldn't defend Edwards. Whether it was single defense or double-teaming, Huazi always had the ability to score the ball. With today's three-pointers, he scored 5 of 21 three-pointers in the end. The Warriors really had no choice. There is also a Randall's offensive strength, and the Warriors really feel like they are losing sight of each other.
The score is 1-3, the Warriors should be gone, Curry's best comeback time is G6, but he should not wait for that time. Even if Curry returns with an injury in the next game, it is so difficult to win three games in a row, let alone the Timberwolves' home court in the next game.
can only say, come back next year! The lineup is still problematic, the inside line is still too weak, the Warriors have good defense, but the offense is too dependent on Curry. Bojie occasionally has outstanding performances, but overall it is still unstable. Butler has a leadership temperament and has the ability to solve strong solutions at critical moments, but it really cannot be sustained. He averaged about 20 points per game. He scored 30+ in the last game, and he could only score 10+ in the next game. His age and ability are there. There is a reason why he has not won the championship for so many years.
If the Warriors still have ideas about the championship, they still have to trade during the offseason, so try to chase Durant or letters as much as possible! If Curry and Butler were the only one year older next year, it would still be hopeless!
