Thunder vs. Timberwolves Game 2: The Unexpected Strategy That Could Flip the Western Conference Finals
Edwards, meanwhile, has to be moved around â off pindowns, ghost screens, and/or empty-side action â to keep OKCâs defense from loading up early in the clock. Defensively, the Wolves need to show SGA different looks to keep him off balance â and maybe mix in some zone.
Thatâs easier said than done. Gilgeous-Alexander has averaged 34.2 points and 7.2 assists against the Timberwolves this season. Heâs scored 30 or more in four of the five meetings, and while this is the best defense heâs faced in the playoffs, thereâs little question heâs going to be productive.
