After having lost the first two games of the series, Minnesota, in front of its own audience, regained confidence in its own means, managing to sweep OKC with a peremptory 143-101 that says a lot about the dominance of Edwards and his teammates. Thanks to this success, the series is open again with the Thunder ahead 2-1.

Round addressed from the first quarter with Minnesota being super aggressive on defense and very fluid on offense. At halftime, the hosts are already up +31. OKC never has a chance to try to get into the game. Colorless performance by Gilgeous-Alexander. The new MVP of the’NBA closes with just 14 points with a lousy 4/13 from the field.

On the other end, absolute domination by Edwards who puts up 30 points in 30′ of play (with also nine rebounds and six assists). Redemption also for Randle who closes with 24, precious, points.

“Just put maximum pressure on the ball and shoot as much as you can” Edwards’ simple recipe, revealed at the end of the game and reported by ESPN. Finch, Minnesota coach complimented his All Star: “It&#8217s been really, really, really good”. Game 4 is scheduled, also in Minneapolis, on Monday night and Tuesday. The T’Wolves aim, without a shadow of a doubt, to even the score.
