Even when something good happens for Minnesota, it turns negative. That’s what Mike Breen proclaimed on ESPN late in the first half of Game 5 of the Western Conference Finals. As he did, Alex Caruso egged on a euphoric Paycom Center crowd, as if they needed encouragement to cheer. The Oklahoma City Thunder built a 28-point lead over the Minnesota Timberwolves.

The Minnesota Timberwolves walked into Target Center on Saturday for Game 3 knowing how important a win was. They dropped the first two games of the Western Conference Finals on the road against the Oklahoma City Thunder.

Anthony Edwards wasn’t playing Madden in his hotel room, as he typically likes to do in his free time. He wasn’t dropping 50-yard dimes with J.J. McCarthy after the Minnesota Timberwolves dropped Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals 114-88. He was up until 3 AM, watching film on the loss from the team hotel with Wolves assistant coach Chris Hines. The two studied everything the Oklahoma City Thunder did to limit Edwards to 18 points on 5 of 13 from the floor over 37 minutes.
