What could have been and was not. It is impossible to shake off that thought when remembering how these Golden State Warriors competed just a few weeks ago, when Stephen Curry had not yet been injured in the 2025 NBA playoffs. The Bay Area team was knocked out in the fifth game thanks to the outstanding performance of the Minnesota Timberwolves, with a score of 121-110.

There is no use in thinking conditionally and building castles in the air in life. To succeed in the NBA, many factors are needed, and the key one is avoiding injuries to your team's stars. Golden State Warriors could not do it in this series against the Minnesota Timberwolves, and no matter how hard they strived to compete until the end, their arguments were entirely insufficient to defeat Anthony Edwards and company, a group that stands as a strong candidate for glory.

Resolving this series in five games gives Minnesota Timberwolves a few days of tranquility to prepare for the next challenge. The maturity of this group is tremendous, with a Julius Randle who is not making the same game-reading mistakes as before, a colossal Rudy Gobert on the boards, and an Anthony Edwards who takes advantage of the dirty work from Conley, Di Vincenzo, Reid, and McDaniels to unleash all the potential that makes him a star of the present and perhaps a budding legend. A resounding victory and time to think about the Thunder or the Nuggets.
