05:37He's attempted more free throws than
05:39anybody else so far in this game
05:4214 points and 21 minutes play
05:49Spurs are 15 of 18 as a team as
05:51Nas Reid will check in and go bear to
05:53the bench so a little bit smaller
05:54unit right now for Minnesota here
05:58Tremont Green I think talk about this
05:59exact situation about how the Spurs
06:02attacking when Rudy was on versus off
06:05the floor
06:08their defensive numbers
06:11obviously distinctly different so
06:13much better when Rudy had been on the
06:15floor but it does change how an
06:17offense thinks about where to attack
06:20here's Edwards who was a minus 23 in the
06:23first half
06:23his 3 for 10 shooting
06:26Wimbanyama with the slot
06:27McDaniels gets it back
06:29shot clock down to 7
06:31second block
06:33for Wimbanyama timer at 3
06:35Reid fumbles now gathers
06:37misses loose ball
06:39pin balls to Shannon
06:41who tracks it down with good hustle
06:47Edwards bank shot is good his first
06:51points of the quarter
06:55he's got 10 he averaged close to 30
06:57during the regular season
07:00Castle driving all the way to the
07:02basket and
07:03count it plus a foul
07:05another great take by Stephon
07:07Castle
07:08and another foul drawn
07:10I mean this guy all year
07:13has proven so dynamic
07:14as a driver
07:16his ability to get downhill
07:18and this is against Jaden absorbing
07:20the contact somehow
07:22with one hand keeping control
07:25of that basketball
07:28look at the degree of difficulty
07:31of that shot
07:32and he's heading over to the bench
07:35and was sort of slumped over
07:36there for a second
07:43I wonder if he was cramping a
07:45little bit the way he just went
07:46over to get
07:46looked like a
07:47little bit of a
07:48juice box or squeeze there
07:51and he was
07:52as you said doubled over and
07:54trying to stretch out lower
07:56extremities
07:57got 18 points as McDaniels just
07:59picked up a sport foul
08:00so he'll go to the bench bones
08:02Highland on the court now
08:05seventy five forty nine
08:06midway through the third
08:07quarter Spurs looking to even a
08:09series at 1-1
08:18Shannon with Wimbanyama waiting
08:20gets right past him and lays it
08:22in boy what a first he has
08:23oh my goodness
08:24that gear that young man hits
08:27is I mean he's blown by so
08:28many good defenders
08:32Harper almost turned it over
08:36shot clock at 10
08:39Johnson downhill bumps with Reed his
08:41shot no the put back won't fall
08:43either and then he gets into a
08:46wrestling match with Nas Reed
08:49waiting for Scott Foster to tell us
08:51whether it's a foul on Reed or a
08:52jump ball
08:55he had jump ball signal the whole
08:58way there
09:00there will be a jump ball
09:03wait it's been a bit of a struggle
09:04for
09:06Kelvin Johnson and he's point blank
09:08at the rim
09:10there's the tie up you think a foul
09:12there Jay like it see it in your
09:14reaction well look like Johnson at
09:16possession and he's kind of reached
09:17in around and wrapped him but
09:21we'll jump it up 13 on the shot
09:23clock at San Antonio gets
09:25possessed
09:39and now we've got a whistle castle
09:41and Hyland get into it Mitchell
09:43Irvin the official separates the
09:53and Anthony Edwards comes in to play
09:56peacemaker Chris Finch you see him
09:58in there looks like he has words
10:00for one of the officials and
10:09Sean Wright didn't getting an
10:11earful from Minnesota head coach
10:12it's not a great toss by Scott
10:15Foster and then both Hyland just runs
10:17it
10:17no no no no it
10:18believe me
10:19Castle gets a lick in first and
10:22this is what Hyland objected to
10:24and so he's going to go pursue him
10:26after he felt like there was a level
10:28of physicality from Castle
10:31Chris Finch went right to Scott
10:32Foster and said hey this guy is the
10:34one who initiated the action make
10:37sure you look at that
10:38find the call on the floor we're
10:39checking to see if there is a
10:39impossible hostile acts
10:45the retaliation is always what's seen
10:47until now they go back and look at the
10:49replay and I'm sure they'll see the
10:50initial push by Castle
10:52guys when Chris Finch was addressing
10:55the officials there he was obviously
10:56irate as you guys mentioned about
10:58the physicality but Scott Foster
11:00stepped in and told hey we call the
11:02foul on him so he basically to tell him
11:04to back off and move back towards his
11:06bench
11:08okay so he may have said that to Chris
11:11Finch but he hasn't told us yet
11:12whether there's a foul
11:14they were entangled trying to work for
11:16position
11:17Castle and he arms in so both guys
11:21really tangled it's the push by
11:23Castle that Bones objected to and
11:25then he pursues Castle here
11:35and then Chris Finch coming in after
11:40with words for Sean Wright and then
11:43Scott Foster as George documented
11:46takes over from there but we're
11:49waiting for them to tell us you see
11:51Scott Foster blow the whistle but
11:52they have not put number four in
11:55terms of fouls on the board yet for
11:56Castle I'm curious about something
11:59because they were both you know
12:02wrapped up their arms entangled
12:04initially so could this just be
12:07offsetting technicals if they even
12:09go in that direction I mean I get
12:11it Bones pursued him a little bit
12:13but to me it's like there's it
12:15doesn't feel like there's a ton
12:17here other than maybe a foul call
12:21again Scott Foster blew the
12:22whistle let's see if they call a
12:25personal foul for the push during
12:27live play by Castle and then maybe
12:29a technical after either on Bones
12:32Highland for the response or to
12:33to your point on both guys yeah
12:40542 to go in the third San Antonio
12:42leads it by 24 that was the margin
12:45at halftime Wolves put up just 35
12:48points in that first half their
12:52lowest output of the entire season
12:57they took game one here on Monday
12:59104 102 trying to fight back from
13:03down big here in midway part of the
13:06third quarter and they're taking a
13:11long time with this Scott Foster
13:12still has his headset on Foster in
13:19in his 32nd year he's worked 26 NBA
13:21finals after you lose ball foul on
13:33Castle followed by a technical
13:34foul on Highland the Spurs will
13:36shoot one it'll be possession
13:37Minnesota ball so you got Castle
13:40with the personal that's four that's
13:42what as George reported Scott
13:45Foster told Chris Fink that he was
13:47calling the personal foul on Castle
13:51and now the technical from this
13:52shove from Highland so it'll be a
13:56free throw for San Antonio just
13:59because of the technical it's not a
14:01penalty situation so no more free
14:03throws for either team here exactly
14:09what you said it was Dave personal
14:13on Castle technical on bones and
14:19to sell nine points on the night
14:21will shoot the technical what
14:24would they have called that in the
14:2590s play on it would have been a
14:28whistle
14:32it's still be going and it would be
14:36the star players getting into it
14:39eight in the quarter for the cell
14:4110 for the game the lead up to 25
14:43and it's Minnesota ball when
14:46Benyama 14 points 12 rebounds a
14:48couple blocks in 21 minutes play
14:55Shannon lost his footing and they're
14:57gonna call a foul on the Spurs that
14:59will put them over the limit it's on
15:00to sell Michelob ultra is bringing
15:06fans chances to win prizes throughout
15:07the NBA playoffs scan for your chance
15:09to win T.J. Shannon will be at the
15:21line he did not play games one
15:23through three against Denver but
15:24then when the injuries happen to
15:26Dante Di Vincenzo the season ending
15:28torn Achilles and Anthony Edwards
15:30left knee injury Shannon was
15:33inserted came off the bench then I
15:35owed the sumo got hurt and so they
15:37needed to start Shannon Chris
15:39Finch told us we think if we put the
15:41ball in his hands he can make plays
15:43for us and he did he was great in
15:45that game six clinching victory over
15:47Denver scored twenty four points in
15:50his first ever playoff start he's
15:53got the ability to get downhill in a
15:54hurry that burst he has an extra
15:57gear puts a lot of people in the
15:59rear view Johnson driving working on
16:06three spins read call for the pop the
16:15first foul on Nas read 15 pop watch a
16:20little as Shannon getting down here
16:22just watch the gear he hits he's
16:24working here against Wendy the
16:25crossover attack but when he decides
16:28to go the gear he hits with that
16:30first step boy it's it is quick he's
16:36in his second NBA season five years of
16:38college basketball Texas Tech for
16:40three than Illinois for his last two
16:42was the 27th pick two years ago in
16:44the draft and a bright future for
16:47Minnesota you think about this
16:50Minnesota team two years ago to make
16:53the conference finals then they make
16:54a big trade Towns goes to New York
16:56Randall D Vincenzo coming to
16:57Minnesota to make the conference
16:58finals again then they lose to kill
17:00Alexander Walker in the offseason he
17:02ends up being the most improved player
17:04in the NBA with Atlanta he has a
17:06here they are again 1-0 leading in the
17:09series trying to get to the conference
17:11finals a third straight year Cornette
17:13they'll jump it off as he blocks
17:15Randall good minutes tonight from Luke
17:20Cornette again only played just over
17:23eight minutes in the last game as they
17:25stretch out Wendy's minutes but he's
17:27been terrific in the minutes he's
17:28gotten his ability to go up straight
17:31vertically get a piece and he's he's
17:33right there saying hey that's a jump
17:35three blocks for Cornette will help
17:38Boston win the championship couple
17:40years ago now Foster trying to change
17:45the arm position of the two guys here
17:50comes Kelvin Johnson Spurs looking to
17:52run lead with a block and a foul that
17:56is going to be on Shannon that's four on
17:58him so Shannon and McDaniels with four
17:59each for Minnesota
18:02well you like the Kelvin Johnson for
18:05whom it has been an enormous struggle
18:06in terms of efficiency shooting has not
18:10let it back him off of his level of
18:12aggression he's got nine boards like as
18:15you're finding your offense you got to
18:17try to help your team in other ways
18:20tonight's upcoming playoff schedule
18:22between the Spurs and Timberwolves
18:24brought to you by United Airlines
18:26Game 3 Friday at Target Center on
18:29Prime Video then NBC Peacock will have
18:31Game 4 Sunday night and if the Spurs
18:34win this game they will be assured a
18:37game 5 back here next Tuesday San
18:41Antonio has not been to the conference
18:42final since 2017 they won 62 games
18:48during the regular season as a foul is
18:50called here on San Antonio so Randall
18:54will be at the line Kilden Johnson
18:56trying to be physical that's four on
18:59him what a job that Mitch Johnson
19:05did with San Antonio during the
19:07regular season and 34 games last
19:10year a lot of people thought okay
19:11the Spurs are ready to take the
19:13next step you know maybe they'll be
19:14in the play and end up winning 28
19:17more games with the guy essentially
19:19even though he coached most of last
19:21year what the first-year head coach
19:2239 years old with Victor women Yama
19:25coming off what he dealt with last
19:26year with the blood clot he still
19:29missed 18 games yes they had the
19:31second-best record in the NBA he has
19:34made this program his own following
19:37in the steps of a legend not an easy
19:40thing to do they are built on the
19:42defensive side their habits are
19:44exceptional the culture is being built
19:46you know sustaining what was already
19:49here
19:51Champagne gets the bounce his first
19:53points of the night
20:00Kyle Anderson checking in for
20:02Minnesota Champagne with the block
20:04Wow that folks does not happen often
20:10to one Anthony Edwards the Ant-Man
20:13downhill is usually problematic
20:15probably doesn't have the lift as he
20:17normally does great block by
20:19Champagne and then Fox with the
20:22takeaway it's a three on two
20:27Champagne lets it fly it's good the
20:31Walsh having Champagne problems it's a
20:3430-point lead on a title in 12
20:46seasons trying to get one step
20:48closer and even this series of one
20:51game apiece a lot of legendary
20:54players are in the house here at
20:58Frostbank Center tonight including
20:59Sean Elliott wealth San Antonio when
21:01its first title along with Mario
21:02Alley back in 1999 honor Ginobili
21:06won four rings with San Antonio and
21:11the great Tim Duncan who is a part
21:13of all five championship teams with
21:16the Spurs and Greg Popovich the
21:21mastermind behind it all Hall of
21:23Famer one of the all-time greats
21:27miss Johnson has done an amazing job in
21:30his step he's talking to us pregame
21:34about the lack of a timeout call down
21:37the stretch of that basketball game
21:38and you get champagne who is your most
21:42prolific and dangerous three-point
21:44shooter a shot that goes in discussions
21:49totally different
21:52yeah over and back violation just keeps
21:55the hits keep on coming from
21:56Minnesota time Edwards saying when I
21:58passed it it was deflected but
22:00officials are saying no it was not
22:07it looked like it did change
22:09right looks like it was off the
22:11fingertip of Harper
22:1530-point lead for San Antonio with
22:17four minutes to go in the third
22:18quarter game three Friday night back in
22:21Minnesota
22:25Fox who got going in that first quarter
22:27really set the tempo he missed the shot
22:30there he's got 16 points but again he
22:32did most of his damage in that first
22:35quarter with nine points
22:38Island way off on the three Minnesota
22:41three for 18 from three
22:47Champagne again
22:52Julian Champagne makes it a 33-point
22:55lead
22:55once he sees one go down you better be
22:59there on the catch or prevent the
23:00catch because he is he gets white hot
23:04quickly
23:04made 195 threes during the regular
23:07season
23:08as Cornette got knocked down before
23:11the shot attempt by Reed it's a 9-0
23:14Champagne run right now
23:17the bottle is on court Dave Pash because
23:21good little ball fake to the corner
23:23little shot take
23:32Julian who's in his fourth year out of
23:34St. John's has a twin brother Justin
23:36who's also in the NBA plays for
23:38Washington
23:39as Cornette knocks down the first
23:41free throw
23:41everybody's got their own little
23:43silly nowadays don't they
23:46individual
23:47not sure what that was see if I were
23:49him I would have
23:51hopping the champagne cork
23:53no question of course he's clearly
23:56not paying attention to you during the
23:58telecast because you've got every
24:00reference to champagne possible
24:02there's more
24:03gotta find the appropriate time
24:08it's a thirty five point game
24:11Kyle Anderson not even looking for the
24:13pass
24:13just an incredibly sloppy game by
24:17Minnesota is when Benyama turns it
24:19over
24:20but
24:21yeah this is something Chris Bench
24:23talked to us a lot about during the
24:25regular season the emotional swings of
24:28his team and you're in game one on the
24:32road some people would say oh you got
24:35house money but you get a chance to go
24:38up to nothing you already got a seventy
24:41five percent chance based on history
24:42just winning game one as Reed hits a
24:44three to go on to win the series you go up
24:46to nothing the two road wins right
24:48it's like ninety two percent chance you
24:51end up winning the series yet just the
24:53intensity level was not there tonight
24:55I think the thing that Marlowe was how
24:57striking the contrast was from Anthony
25:00Edwards approach game one to game two
25:02where game one he just let it come to
25:04him
25:05game two like
25:06these quick shots in that first
25:08quarter seemed to take his own group
25:10by surprise
25:14two minutes to go in the third
25:18and an offensive foul
25:20Kyle Anderson called for the
25:22the legal screen
25:31it's an easy one
25:32it's an easy one
25:3617 turnovers
25:37Minnesota's got 22 baskets
25:39only five more field goals than
25:42turnovers
25:45in a playoff game
25:46he did not punch a foul on Harper
25:49against Bowens Highland
25:50that's his second personal
25:54the leading score for Minnesota has
25:5612 points
25:57that's Julius Randle
25:5810 for McDaniels
25:5910 for Shannon
26:01and 10 for Edwards who's just 4 for
26:0312
26:04played 22 minutes
26:08Highland gets past Cornette
26:10and women Yama came over to help
26:12so he kicks it out for miss 3
26:14and a foul inside
26:17that's a double big line up on the floor
26:19right now
26:20if you're Mitch Johnson
26:21you have not given this a ton of run
26:23but Cornette and Wembe with the big lead
26:26giving it a look right now
26:28don't know that we've seen it in the playoffs
26:30yet
26:32for Mitch Johnson putting both guys in the court
26:35but with the big lead
26:36might as well give it a shot
26:37go bear this is another free throw is 3 for 8
26:39I like it
26:40the more optionality you have as a coach the better
26:43I think it's one of Oklahoma City's great strengths
26:45in particular when they're completely healthy
26:49right
26:49Jalen Williams
26:51absence takes away just a touch of that optionality
27:01and he misses another one
27:04rebound number 13 for Wendon Yama
27:06he also has 14 points but has not scored here
27:10in the second half
27:11he's got 2 blocks
27:14he'll fire
27:15and hit a 3
27:23his second triple of the game
27:27and his first point
27:28this half
27:30Highland no
27:31Wembe and Yama
27:31able to secure the rebound
27:34Champagny
27:35pulls up for 3
27:36he's got it
27:39starting to sparkle here in the third
27:46all 12 of his points have come
27:49in about
27:50a 5 minute span
27:52it's 96 to 58
27:56and another
27:58Minnesota turnover
28:01just Aaron Fox
28:04from the outset
28:06the Spurs approach has been mature
28:09and professional
28:10and feels
28:12in direct contrast
28:13to what the approach
28:14from Minnesota has been
28:19Wembe and Yama
28:20lets it fly
28:21not that time
28:23and Edwards has it now
28:25inside a minute to go
28:26in the third quarter
28:29the 23 points
28:31now 25 for Minnesota
28:33in this third quarter
28:34the highest scoring quarter
28:35of this game for the Wolves
28:37they're down 36
28:40Edwards with 12 points now
28:42Fox on the drive
28:43back out to Wembe and Yama
28:48Wembe and Yama spinning on Highland
28:50who's got a hold of him
28:51and now Reed
28:52throws him out of the way
28:54the Spurs don't take exception to that
28:58Wembe and Yama will be at the line
29:01penalty situation
29:01so this is your horn set
29:03how often do you see your center
29:05with the ball
29:06in the horn set
29:08and it leads to a 3 for him
29:10and he loves it
29:13he shot 35% from 3 during the regular season
29:16he's very capable
29:18but the last couple games
29:20it's been a struggle
29:21just 2 for 15
29:22we'll see if that one gets him going
29:24just his second free throw attempt of the game
29:27he's got up 18 points now
29:29as McDaniels checks back in
29:31what do you think it when this guy
29:33you're in individual defensive situation
29:36it's an isolation
29:37and the 7 foot 4 alien
29:39turns and squares up
29:40with the kind of handle that he has
29:43his finish ability left and right
29:45the array of offensive arsenal
29:48that he has
29:49I mean it's absurd to think about
29:51I don't want to be on that island
29:56got them both with that sweet smooth stroke
30:0239 points for the Spurs in the quarter
30:05another Minnesota turnover as Harper hits the deck
30:08an offensive foul on Gobert
30:10they're gonna actually say now Harper
30:13well there's a lot of reaction from the talking heads about
30:16could be a sweep for Minnesota
30:19they got to get it right
30:21you see the lead in by Rudy Gobert
30:22in the backcourt right there
30:24knocks Harper off balance
30:26and eventually off his feet
30:2819 turnovers
30:31contrast that with 23 field goals
30:34for Minnesota
30:366 second difference in the game in shot clocks
30:40here's the vet Harrison Barnes
30:42and before the shot attempt there was a whistle
30:46and a foul called offensive foul
30:49on Bryant his third personal
30:57San Antonio is now 11 of 25 from 3 they started the game 0 for 6
31:054 of 12 in the first half
31:07to get seven threes here in the quarter
31:10three for the Wolves
31:12seven seconds left in the third
31:15Harper
31:16his three short
31:19and the third quarter comes to an end
31:21it is a 35 point San Antonio lead
31:2412 minutes to go as the Spurs look at even this series
31:27at 1-1 before heading back to the Twin Cities for game three Friday
31:46the San Antonio Spurs
31:49a 35 point lead after three quarters looking to even
31:53his best of seven with Minnesota at one apiece
31:57let's check in with George Sedano
31:58guys Victor Wimanyama is the first player to average at least 15 points in five blocks per game
32:03in his first six career playoff games since blocks were first tracked in 1973-74
32:08so basically there was the Wilk Chamberlain era where we didn't track it
32:11and now the Wendy era Dave
32:13that's so appropriate and
32:16can only imagine just given
32:19every game of the playoffs he's done something we haven't seen
32:22his debut game 35 points 21 in the first half that was an NBA record for a playoff debut
32:28George talked about the blocks he had the 12th
32:30in game
32:32one of this series
32:34he's only 22
32:35correct
32:37and it's interesting it would be interesting how many minutes he gets here
32:40because they are trying to stretch his runs out
32:44so last game he plays the most minutes in a game all season just eight seconds under 40 minutes
32:50tonight is at 25
32:53but
32:54you've got to you know prepare your body for the long run
32:58so I would assume they get an extended stretch
33:01you want to first of all make sure you're putting this game to bed
33:03but you've also got conditioning to think about where he's concerned
33:09Game three is Friday night in Minneapolis game four Sunday
33:13there'll be a game five next Tuesday back here in San Antonio
33:16a foul here
33:22it's on Castle his fifth so this is the four straight game now
33:25they're up 35 but still
33:27Mitch Johnson told us before the game it's something Castle needs to get better at
33:31can't pick up the cheap fouls
33:33it may not impact the outcome tonight but
33:36again is an issue fouled out of each of the last two games
33:41Randall doubled
33:44shot clock down to three
33:46Clark for three you could see it was off the minute he let it go
33:49rebound women young
33:50yeah they've been opportunistic
33:52send in a ton of doubles
33:55Oh Harper just great off the bounce
33:57boy is he talented the 20 year old rookie Dylan Harper
34:03seven points five assists six rebounds a complete game so far
34:07in about 19 minutes
34:12McDaniels playing with five fouls it's that one to drop he's got 12 points
34:22a Barnes through the lane he'll hang and finish off the glass
34:27and a timeout by Chris Finch
34:33let's watch Dylan Harper work this young man is really talented dead sprint
34:39the spin
34:40I mean the push over to the touch
34:47the NBA conference semifinals on ESPN
34:50are delivered by Chipotle
34:52real ingredients real flavor
34:55Chipotle for real
35:00as you have to go through your progressions in real time
35:03especially with how fast the game moves
35:06so we're going to show you a bunch of cross matches
35:09Dylan Harper, Julius Randall here on the perimeter
35:11so Harper goes for excuse me Edwards goes downhill
35:15he gets a nice drive because we're a little cross match
35:18they're going to return the favor Stefan Castle
35:21cross match because Julius Randall is guarding him
35:23little two on one situation because Bones Highland trying to stay between
35:27two and you go
35:28but remember all of this all of this reading is happening in real speed
35:34I always say Dave to me it's very hard with the cross match here
35:40very hard to not think the game at a high level to play in the NBA
35:45the speed the quick thinking required
35:49this game this league is so special
35:54that's usually the toughest adjustment for guys coming into the NBA
36:00that didn't play a lot of college basketball maybe they played a year
36:06and they try to adjust to the speed of the NBA game and the intellect that you have to have
36:11to be able to
36:12play especially in the defensive end
36:17takes time to adjust for most guys it has not been an adjustment for him much
36:21Castle and Dylan Harper as well are both special in that regard in terms of how they thought the game
36:28they were playing very early in their careers on both ends of the court
36:31got a foul here as Terrence Shannon takes a shot
36:35above the shoulders
36:37this guy with Harper and their ability
36:40to consistently get two feet in the paint
36:43and then become either decision makers or shot makers
36:46and it go back to something that
36:48Mitch Johnson said
36:50about driving the car fast
36:52letting those two young men drive the car fast
36:56knowing that at times they're going to crash the car
36:58and that's okay
37:00because it's part of the process of learning
37:0321 points for Castle
37:05foul is on Fox or Barnes rather his third
37:08Shannon at the line he's got 10 points
37:12coming up after our game it is Ernie Kenny Charles and Draymond Green in for Shaq
37:17they'll break down both match-ups tonight
37:21Nick's going up to nothing on Philadelphia with
37:25win the night at the Garden
37:28like Castle's night is over
37:30Jordan McLaughlin Kelly Olenek checking in
37:35and also Minnesota
37:38Joe Ingles
37:40on the floor here
37:42along with Julian Phillips
37:46felt like it's a completely different challenge for the New York Knicks
37:49with Joel Embiid not in the basketball game
37:52but becomes much more Maxi centric
37:54what a year Maxi has had
37:57and how about as Harper scores
38:00the way
38:02Nick fans are responding to what they're seeing right now
38:04not just inside the arena but all the shots we had earlier tonight
38:08in our first game of the fans outside the garden
38:12as they're two wins away from going
38:14back-to-back seasons in the conference finals
38:17Kyle Anderson
38:18cleaning it up inside for Minnesota
38:20former Spur was drafted here
38:21and spent his first four years with San Antonio
38:30Barnes for three
38:31hit it
38:32the 12 three for the Spurs
38:34they lead by 40 only one time
38:38in their illustrious
38:40history have they won a playoff game by 40 or more
38:43that was back in 1983
38:45they beat Denver by 40
38:47Clark answers with a triple for Minnesota
38:59Barnes will try again
39:02and here comes Anderson
39:06and skipped by Anderson
39:07he just couldn't finish
39:1121 points for Castle to lead all scores
39:13women Yama with 19 points and 15 rebounds
39:17and four different players with 12 points to lead Minnesota
39:23Olynyk
39:24fouled by Shannon
39:26no basket they say
39:29that's the fifth foul on Shannon
39:32I think of the last time I
39:35saw a conference semifinal game with the benches are emptied with
39:38nine minutes to go in the fourth quarter
39:41it's just been a brutal night for Chris Finch's team
39:46the Spurs came with the energy
39:50they needed and the intensity level was raised from game one
39:53they set the tone early and did not look back
39:58the level of intensity
40:00physicality and response
40:03from San Antonio on the defensive end of the floor
40:06pretty incredible from the opening tip
40:10now Minnesota Minnesota will have to recapture that
40:15level of intensity they had in the Denver series and in game one for game three on Friday night
40:20and how much of it is being content to win one
40:24and how much that impacted what they did is another three goes down
40:29that's Lindy Waters checking in and promptly burying a three
40:36here's the 38 year old Ingles and stolen by Olynyk McLaughlin
40:41have an easy basket on the other end
40:55it does make you wonder Doris it is human nature after you get one on the road
41:00but look your team that's been to the conference finals two straight years
41:03you believe you're a championship team
41:06and they might still be but
41:08you don't usually see championship teams having games like this
41:12after they've gone up 1-0
41:14you might lose and lose by 25 because the other team doesn't miss a shot but
41:19scoring 35 points and lacking intensity and energy and just
41:24sloppy play 21 turnovers
41:26eight turnovers in the third quarter alone
41:29thinking you come out with a different disposition at least to make it a game
41:32in the third quarter but it's
41:34listen in the entire tenure of this particular group of Timberwolves
41:42inconsistency has been the one consistent theme
41:44and there are nights they play up to the level of their competition
41:48there are many nights they play down
41:49some head-scratching losses
41:51it's an interesting season for Anthony Edwards
41:5561 games
41:56and I know we've joked coming on the air tonight
41:58there's another steal by the Spurs
42:01behind the back to Barnes for the stop
42:19the Spurs continue to put it on regardless of who's between the lines
42:26and then little English 2-on-1 Harrison Barnes
42:36for the Phenom
42:38he's 7 foot 4 super athletic highly skilled
42:41look at the wrist height he's at the top of the box
42:45on that block shot
42:47he cares deeply
42:49folks put him on a poster
42:51the alien is in the house
42:53but what a response collectively as well from the San Antonio Spurs
42:58on the defensive end of the floor
43:01this team has so many young players going through the playoffs for the first time
43:06they haven't even reached the 10 game mark
43:09but the performance tonight defensively against the 7th best offense in the league
43:14this is associate head coach Sean Sweeney
43:17who has been a long time assistant coach
43:20highly respected he is in charge of the defense
43:23folks he's going to get some interviews this spring
43:26and he's earned every single one of them
43:28St. Paul Minnesota native who
43:30got some interviews when he was with the Mavericks the last 5 years
43:33but elected to come to San Antonio
43:35work with Mitch Johnson as the associate head coach
43:39as the Spurs lead it 118-74
43:43about to even the series at 1-1 with game 3 Friday back in his hometown
43:51and Anderson at the line gets the first free throw
43:56look at that
43:57their level of physicality attention to detail
44:01timely traps scented Anthony Edwards
44:04or Julius Randle creating turnovers
44:08just just couldn't be more more impressed with their response this evening
44:17still six and a half minutes to go here in game 2
44:20by the way the largest loss ever for Minnesota regular season or postseason
44:25as another three goes for Barnes
44:28is 48
44:28that was back in 2014 at New Orleans
44:34it's now a 46 point deficit
44:39Anthony Edwards over there on the bench
44:42huge ice bags
44:43on both knees
44:45for Anthony Edwards
44:46and here's what I wonder
44:49cause I was trying to make this point earlier
44:5161 games this year
44:54and we were joking about how quickly he responded to get back into the series
44:58all his teammates great respect for how hard he worked
45:01he's getting old early
45:02as the great Jeff Angunder used to say right
45:06Anthony Edwards is a great basketball player
45:09his night-by-night variance in level
45:11in the regular season has got to become more consistent
45:15locked in on both ends
45:17leading the team with consistency
45:22he's he's got the ability to lead a team to a championship
45:27but remember the Marcus Thompson article when Luka Doncic lost in the final step one year to Boston
45:34he was talking about what what is required from the best players in the finals
45:39it's a great read it's worth going back to
45:42it requires everything from your superstars
45:45this young man is electric
45:49sixth year is that correct
45:5124 years of age
45:52the first time injuries cost him that many games
45:56he loves to play
45:59you just want to see this young man maximize his potential
46:03because he's absolutely electric
46:07you could win a trip to game three of the NBA Finals
46:10make your playoff picks now with NBA Pickham Street
46:13to the finals play free at NBA.com slash Pickham
46:16or on the NBA app
46:18well Edwards missed 21 regular season games
46:20he missed nine in the last three years combined
46:23and again the assumption was he was going to miss a considerable amount of time in the series
46:28instead he plays in game one
46:30came off the bench came off the bench here in game two
46:33played 24 minutes
46:34didn't play in the fourth quarter
46:36as waters misses a three
46:43lob to Berger and he's fouled and another Frenchman on the floor
46:4919 year old first round pick by the Wolves this past offseason will be at the line
46:54shooting two
47:02Aaron Jay playing his third game of the postseason
47:07and for free throw shooting again for Minnesota as a team 14 of 26 they managed to win game one
47:13despite going 12 of 21 at the line
47:18a couple more game twos tomorrow the Lakers look to even the series with Oklahoma City
47:24or the Thunder
47:26look great again
47:27Jesse haven't lost yet in the postseason
47:31and Detroit list to go up to nothing on Cleveland
47:34there's a touches at last but it stayed here 11 to shoot
47:45there's a touches at last but it stayed here 11 to shoot
47:52McLaughlin was seven to shoot works into the lane
47:55shovels it underneath to a link knocked away by Clark
47:59some of these Spurs fans have the face paint that looked like
48:03old Oakland Raider fans
48:05have you seen that?
48:06there it is
48:08either that or a member of the band kiss
48:10one or the other
48:13waters three hits the side of the backboard
48:18other big fan section here is called the Jackals
48:20I don't know if those are all the guys who have the face paint tonight or not
48:23here's Ingles for three it's good
48:27Joe Joe Ingles in the house
48:31okay
48:31an alien here or tougher what are we gonna call that?
48:36things are breaking down on the broadcast
48:38this moment
48:42Olenek with a three
48:43that's 16 threes now for the Spurs
48:51inside the NBA coming up next
48:55guys will talk obviously about what they saw here but also about game one of our
48:59playoffs doubleheader between the Knicks and Sixers
49:01Barrage a cleaning it up inside
49:21here's Barnes
49:22shot clock at seven he fumbles it away to Ingles
49:29there is J fires underneath knocked out of bounds
49:36I know it's been a rough night for Minnesota but it doesn't take away from
49:43the job that Chris Finch has done the last few years for Minnesota probably does not get the recognition nationally
49:49that he deserves and you think about his
49:51at
49:52to being the Wolves head coach he's now in year six you think about Minnesota
49:57prior to two years ago
50:00they had won
50:01a playoff series in one year they went to the conference finals in 2004 now back-to-back conference finals
50:07and three wins away from going again
50:09it's a guy that played in Europe coached in Europe for 12 years in Germany and Belgium he was the
50:14national team head coach for Great Britain Nick Nurse was an assistant the Olympic team in 2012 it ends up
50:21being a G League
50:21coach bounces around as an assistant and then gets the Minnesota head job
50:28and with different iterations of Wolves teams each of the last three years has put them in position for success
50:33I don't think you can doubt what he has done to help build this program
50:38and I think he's gone about it with great humility and I think
50:43that journey probably contributed to that right
50:50I don't know that this is necessarily an easy group to coach
50:58but they did get one even though tonight the effort wasn't there they
51:02to split and they have the home court advantage with games three and four in Minnesota
51:09Friday and Sunday they'll be back here next Tuesday for game five
51:16and the one positive would be that not a lot of the Minnesota key players
51:23played a lot of minutes McDaniels only played 20 because he got in foul trouble
51:27Edwards played 24 read 21 Barajay puts it in
51:31I mean we kind of expected Edwards to play 24 25 minutes very similar minutes
51:36situation but disappointing news obviously is Io because he had came in with no minutes restriction
51:42but obviously the injury George report on keeping him down here
51:47and that will be something to keep an eye on because already shorthanded with a divincenzo injury
51:54is Edwards going to continue to be on a minutes restriction
51:57I would assume missing two games coming back tonight
52:01and in ten minutes no points over four and then leaving with that injury
52:08running out of bodies I mean Mike Conley is giving you very good minutes
52:12this is a guy though that wasn't even on the team for a while they brought him back
52:16after trading him and then he got traded again and finally released and signed back in Minnesota
52:21but how much more at age 38 can he give you when you get this deep in the playoffs
52:27I think it's got to be in pockets
52:29you think about the four for seven shooting from three that he gave you in game one
52:33excellent defender still really good
52:37you know angles understands game plan
52:40understands personnel
52:44but you're right you're not going to go out there and roll them out 32 minutes Mike Conley
52:48and the thing about DeSumo when he gives you
52:52is pace
52:53the ability to get easy buckets in transition so it's not always a grind
53:00shot clock down to five
53:03Phillips
53:04hits a three
53:05three
53:09it's a 39 point deficit right now
53:1616 green pointers for Minnesota that ties a franchise playoff record as you get one inside that time
53:24and it did look like it was going to be that kind of a night they started 0 for 6
53:27from 3
53:29waters with the rebound they push it McLaughlin 90 seconds left cross-court Olympic
53:44Biambo
53:44look at all the big San Antonio has on the floor with Olympic Biambo and Plumlee on the court together
53:52triple towers out there for the Spurs to close this game
53:58and
53:59Ingles for three
54:01well he did a lot when he was with Utah those good Quinn Schneider teams for the Utah Jazz
54:10inside a minute to go on this one
54:13series will be 1-1 headed back to target center on Friday night
54:21Anderson down court laws for Baron J
54:25and goes up with the bank
54:35and what's left of the crowd as Anderson commits a foul will
54:38stand and applaud here as the Spurs are 37 seconds away from ending this one
54:46actually a decent number of Spurs fans that hung around even with this game over really at halftime
54:58great balance offensively for San Antonio tonight led by Castle at 21 when Ben Yama 19 points
55:0615 rebounds 2 blocks
55:09Fox had 16
55:1112 for Champagny
55:1312 for Barnes and 10 for Vassell
55:17Minnesota had balanced scoring but just not enough scoring they had four players with 12 points each
55:26so Clark will dribble it out and this one's headed back to Minnesota tied at one apiece
55:31maybe they won't dribble it out as Barrage a try to take it in and dunk
55:36and now it's over final score San Antonio 133 Minnesota 95
55:42most points in a playoff game for the Spurs since 1983
56:02impressive bounce back from a very young basketball team led early by Fox and Wind Ben Yama you think about
56:10the response for two men who owned up to the poor play in game one big big response from Fox
56:17and Wendon Yama and
56:24Субтитры делал DimaTorzok
56:47The Blazers in Game 3 without Wimpy
56:52then got down by 17 at halftime at Game 4
56:55came back to win that game
56:56so this young Spurs team
56:59been challenged in terms of facing some postseason adversity
57:03and they've been able to answer that challenge so far now twice
57:09Spurs family come on and join us here
57:12at the Alonso Profer
57:23and let's check in with George
57:26guys Victor's here with his teammates
57:28Carter Bryant and Bismack Viambo
57:31Victor you guys dominated this one
57:3438 point victory
57:35what was the difference tonight
57:39just that simple
57:42now you had talked about how in game one you did unnecessary things as you decided to call it in
57:50game one
57:50what did you do tonight that was necessary
57:52but crushing the boards early and fighting so they didn't get offensive rebound and passing the ball
57:59there's obviously a lot of chatter about their experience versus your inexperience
58:04what does a game like tonight say about that
58:07it says we don't care very simple congratulations Victor said it's on for us come on man
58:13all right Victor thank you Dave
58:18well like a lot of people I think he just wanted to get out of the building with the way
58:23the end of this game went 133 95
58:26the final score is the Spurs roll the wolves to tie this series at one apiece for doris burke george
58:32sedano dave pash saying so long from san antonio stay tuned after the break we'll head back to the studio
58:37ernie kenny charles and draymond green inside the nba coming up on espn
