NBA Play-offs: Minnesota falls again, Dallas runs away on 3-0 run
33 points apiece for the Magic’s two outfielders
If in the Eastern Conference finals, Boston lays down the law (3-0 against Indiana), in the West, kudos must be given to Dallas, which, by also overcoming Minnesota in Game 3, è escaped to 3-0 in the series, thus just one win away from entering the NBA Finals.
Once again, the Mavs have to thank the usuals, namely Irving and Doncic. The former confirms he is in an exceptional state of form: 33 points on the scoreboard with 14 scored in the decisive last period. The Slovenian also shines, ending the match with 33 points, seven rebounds and five assists (5/11 from three).
On the other side, Edwards tries to carry the team on his shoulders. He scores 26 points (but with 24 shots from the field), to which he also adds nine rebounds and nine assists. Unfortunately for the T'Wolves, they are not enough to drag Minnesota to success. Not affecting Towns, who shoots poorly from the field (5/18), finishing with 14 points and 11 rebounds.
"Now we have the balance we need. We are showing off what we know how to do. We are deep and opponents have to deal with each of us. I mean, they only have to choose the kind of venom they want. Are Doncic and I doing great? Nothing matters if we don't win together", the words of a convinced Irving, eager to get back in the game to win the NBA ring.
