Anthony Edwards crushes the Warriors once again.
Anthony Edwards crushes the Warriors once again.

Things have become very complicated for the Golden State Warriors in Game 3 as they had the chance to extend the series against the Minnesota Timberwolves until Stephen Curry returned, but they did not seize it. They held the tie against a much superior team until halftime of this Game 4 (117-110), where all their offensive weaknesses were exposed, and the Wolves unleashed and broke the series: 3-1, with the fifth game in Minneapolis to close out.

Thus, at halftime the Warriors were up by 2, but a 15-0 run in a third quarter that ended 39-17 for the visitors left the Chase Center stunned and the Warriors without the ability to react. They are a team without offensive talent, without shooting, without height, and without Curry. It's a miracle the series stayed so close until yesterday. The Wolves triumphed with Anthony Edwards scoring 30 points and Julius Randle with 31. They needed little else.

For the Warriors, Jonathan Kuminga was the best with 23 points. It wasn't enough. This time Jimmy Butler didn't bring out his magic and stayed at 14 points (his legs are starting to feel heavy). Buddy Hield was well defended and remained at 13 points. Very complicated now. It is likely the Wolves will close it in the fifth game. Curry was supposed to return in the sixth. It's hard to imagine seeing him suited up again in these playoffs.
