Timberwolves makes an unfortunate NBA story in game 1 against thunder

The Oklahoma City Thunder defended on Tuesday evening in game 1 of the Western Conference Home Court and won 114 to 88 against the Minnesota Timberwolves to bring the NBA one closer.

While the end result shows a blowout, it was for The Thunder, who took over the wolves for most of the game in the third quarter, far from a cake walk and that ultimately looked in the second half of 70: 40.

A basketball game is never just a factor, but if you are looking for a status that jumps out, the shooting of the wolves omitted it in the second half, especially beyond the arch. They ended the game only 15 out of 51 three -point attempts.

Take away the start of Julius Randle's hot shooting, which made five of his six three-point attempts in the first half, and the rest of the team shot 10 out of 45 from beyond the arch.

The whole thing was also historical, since the wolves in the conference finale or later, according to NBA writer Tom Habrostroh, shot more than any team in NBA history in NBA history. If you set the record for most three-point attempts and shoot them into a good clip, that's one thing. But if everyone is unable to shoot 22.2%except for one player in their team, this is less than ideal.

The hard night reminded of the loss of Celtics in game 1 of the semi -finals of the Eastern Conference, where they put themselves on while they shoot out of the dispute.

The wolves will turn around in game 2 of the Western Conference Finals on Thursday evening.
