Warriors fight to contain Timberwolves' Anthony Edwards, Julius Randle

Julius Randle and Anthony Edwards summarized Golden State for 61 points and 10 3 points in the game 4 on Monday.

San Francisco (AP) -Anthony Edwards shook both hands on his sides after he had put his second 3-point in a row over a period of 33 seconds in the middle of the third quarter in a row when the Minnesota Timberwolves took over the Golden State Warriors.

No matter the Matchup, Edwards has his way with the defense of the Golden State. And Julius Randle too.

Coach Steve Kerr repeatedly emphasizes how the Warriors will win their playoff series against the T-wolves that will be because of defense. This defense does not do it and that Warriors lost 117-110 on Monday evening For a second defeat nearby in the Chase Center.

You are now facing a 3: 1 deficit in the best-of-Seven-Western Conference series and will try to return the elimination on Wednesday for game 5 to Minneapolis.

Edwards (30 points) and Randle (31) each shot 11 for 21 and combined for 10 3-pointers when the Timberwolves 16 out of 34 of great reach went.

Randle had it routinely go into the basket in game 4, then Edwards illuminated the scoreboard by scoring 11 points in a 17-0 rise in the third quarter.

This 1: 2 punch is more than a golden state, especially without an injured Stephen Curry on the ground that holds everything together. Jimmy Butler and Draymond Green cannot do anything himself.

Get a triple double In a 102-97 victory in game 3, Randle had 31 points-19 of them at half time. He shot 10 out of 23 for 24 points in game 3 after scoring 18 and 24 points in the first two games.

The slowdown of Edwards was just as important for the Warriors, who held five out of 14 shots in the first half in the first half after the outcome of 36 points, while he had made 13 out of 28 shots with five 3 points.

But Edwards' 3 to defeat the half-time buzzer on Monday pulled Minnesota during 60-58 during the break and gave the wolves of dynamics.

He separated two defenders in the key to a floating jumper and a three-point game at 7:45 a.m. of the third quarter and then hit the way to six 3S games in succession.

Before the game, Kerr expressly mentioned Edwards and Randle.

“We have to find a way to slow them down,” he said, “particularly late.”
