A month ago, if someone said that the Timberwolves would compete with the Knicks for the NBA championship, I'm afraid everyone would think this person is a dream, but now it seems that such an idea is becoming a reality.

Currently, the four groups of matches in the east and west are not only tied with the Nuggets and Thunder, but the other three groups of matches are all one-sided, the Pacers 3-1 Cavaliers, the Knicks 3-1 Celtics, and the Timberwolves 3-1 Warriors. In the history of the playoffs, the team with a 3-1 lead in the team has a probability of final promotion as high as 92.6%.

Cavaliers, Celtics and Warriors have almost zero chance of turning around. The stars of these three teams were injured, Curry was strained in the hamstring and was eager to make a comeback in the G6 series, but it was difficult for the Warriors to stick to the time point when he made a comeback. The Cavaliers injured Mitchell in the key G4, and the Celtics also lost Tatum in the G4.

Even if the Celtics and the Cavaliers win back a game in G5, it will be difficult to change their fate. Wukuyong will basically say goodbye to this season in the next game.

Countless transaction cases tell us that we should not draw conclusions early at any time.

Last summer, the Knicks reached a major deal with the Timberwolves. Towns and Randall exchanged their bosses. At the beginning of the season, the Knicks bullied the weak and were afraid of the strong. Towns' patience attributes were worrying. The Timberwolves' record declined significantly, so this deal was considered a loss-making loss by industry insiders.

But luck is awesome. The Timberwolves and the Knicks both took 3-1 lead in their respective division semi-finals, and the possibility of both sides meeting in the finals increased greatly.

Do you think the deal between Towns and Randle is a win-win situation? Welcome to share your insights!
