Unlocking the Secret Twist That Will Change Everything You Thought You Knew About This Story
The Timberwolves trusted their bench more and had some good moments against OKC. Nickeil Alexander-Walker had three excellent games in the middle of the series sandwiched by two duds. Donte DiVincenzo shot the ball well from 3. But Naz Reid struggled with his shot at times and often succumbed to the pressure of the Thunder defense.
The Pacers are closer to the Timberwolves than the Nuggets in terms of trust in their bench. Power forward Obi Toppin will inject some energy into the Pacers’ offense and get them some much-needed easy transition points with how he runs the floor. Point guard T.J. McConnell is relentless on both ends. (Sometimes he can be a bit too involved, especially when Haliburton is out there with him, but his ability to get into the lane can generate good looks on possessions that seem dead.) Thomas Bryant will likely get the first crack at backup center, but will need to overcome his defensive issues against OKC in the regular season.
