Hook 30+4+5! Thank you Curry, Edwards spoke up after the game, and Cole made it clear
10:06pm, 16 May 2025【Basketball】
In the semi-finals of the playoffs, the Timberwolves defeated the Warriors 117-110, leading 3-1. Basically, the Warriors have ended here. The Warriors were destined to be this end without Curry. And Edwards is really not Jaylen Green. He can't play singles, and anyone can limit it. Huazi plays better and better, and he can always adjust his shots back. Edwards made 11 of 21 shots and 6 of 11 three-pointers. Another game of opening low and closing high.
30 points, 4 rebounds, 5 assists and 2 steals. After fighting Butler in the last game, Huazi broke out again today, but Butler was sluggish to 14 points, with a plus-minus value -30 lowest in the game. I can only say that young people are still young people. After a break, they have to take a break and get back up. Butler has to ease. The problem is that the Warriors are on the verge of despair now. I originally thought that the Warriors would be 1-0 after they won 1 game in the next 3 games and could wait until Curry returns in G6, even if the Warriors were behind 2-3.
But unexpectedly, the Warriors lost three consecutive times after 1-0, and they didn't even have the chance to win another comeback. G6 was originally Curry's expected comeback time. Now Curry has to consider making a comeback. But if it's just a comeback, can the Warriors stop the Timberwolves? The Warriors still have no limit on Edwards. And what is even more uncomfortable than the Warriors losing is that Edwards thanked Curry after the game, saying that he helped him improve three points in the offseason, which means Curry helped Edwards kill the Warriors?
Edwards said: "I have never lost confidence in three-pointers. Every time I make a move, I silently think about it. This is a winning goal. Last summer, I have been training with Curry. I have to thank him today. Curry has had a great impact on my shooting ability. After training with him, I did not relax, but continued to practice shooting hard. So my shooting is better, and now I have reached the right state."
From a player who was ridiculed for being inaccurate in three-pointers to becoming the top three-pointers of the season. Edwards' efforts can be seen from the naked eye. This time, Edwards averaged 27 points, 8.1 rebounds and 5.2 assists per game in the playoffs. He also has strong learning ability. Last year, Huazi was stunned when he was hit by the Mavericks and was not able to pass the ball. This year, Huazi has a strong ability to break the joint defense and can pass the ball in time even if he is hit. 1-on-1 can even challenge the Warriors team alone. Plus Randall's ability to attack. The Warriors' inside flaws are constantly exposed. If Curry is not injured, the Warriors can fight the Timberwolves, or even have an advantage.
Cole said after the game that Curry's hamstring strain was devastating for the Warriors. The Warriors' offensive resources are insufficient, and their talent is at a disadvantage. It is entirely blessed by the Kuyou Gravity. When Curry is on the outside, he can always attract 2-3 people. This is how it was when playing against the Rockets in the first round. Curry ran without the ball and made two people press and not allow the ball to catch. When Curry receives the ball, he will be attacked by a clamp, or three people will help defend and encircle. But this also disrupted the Rockets' formation.
If there is no Curry, the Rockets will fight the Warriors at will. The Rockets do not need to be dispersed in resources and can completely replace defenses without limit. Butler is still unable to force the Rockets to use multiple players to encircle and catch the ball. The Rockets lost to the Warriors because Curry invested too much defensive resources, and then the role players only had a few games to beat, and the Warriors could win. Without Curry, the Rockets would not have given Hildeboger and others a chance to break out and score, and Uduka would have pinned them all. Similarly, why is the Timberwolves easy to fight the Warriors? Because there are no Curry's Warriors, the offensive end is too easy to grasp. No matter how you plan your plan, you cannot change the gap in the team's strength.
