00:00:01Момents ago, Али caught up with the starting Minnesota center, Rudy Gobert.
00:00:07Thanks so much, Kevin.
00:00:08Rudy, you've had your hands full with Victor.
00:00:10What have you liked?
00:00:11What adjustments are you looking to make in the second?
00:00:14Just keep being physical.
00:00:16We've got to do a better job in transition.
00:00:18And that's it.
00:00:20You know, just keep communicating, keep getting back in transition,
00:00:23and play the right way offensively.
00:00:27Tie game, obviously 24 minutes to go.
00:00:29What's it going to take to close this out?
00:00:32Just keep making the right play.
00:00:34And we've got to do a better job not falling,
00:00:37showing our hands, and just compete.
00:00:40You know, just be present, compete.
00:00:42Rudy, appreciate the time.
00:00:43Thank you.
00:00:44Here comes Edwards.
00:00:46He's jousting with Vassell.
00:00:47The rebound by Castle.
00:00:50Kevin, to your point about second chance,
00:00:52no fast breaks points, first eight fast break points, one to six.
00:00:55It's just a concern of half for the Minnesota understanding
00:00:58as Castle gets the early foul.
00:01:01But just understanding they don't have a chance
00:01:02if San Antonio is beating them down to four,
00:01:05and their defense is not set.
00:01:07So just doing a better job,
00:01:09being more committed to the hustle that it takes to get back.
00:01:12Dosumu is beginning this second half.
00:01:17Conley started, but to begin the second half,
00:01:19Dosumu, Randle just picked up his third,
00:01:22and Castle at the line for the Spurs.
00:01:25And a big point of emphasis is,
00:01:28especially in the last series against Portland,
00:01:31was getting Stephon Castle downhill
00:01:32because good things happen.
00:01:34Starting off this second half,
00:01:36no other, putting the ball in his hands,
00:01:38and because of that, he's at the free-throw line.
00:01:43And the Spurs back up by two.
00:01:45They've led by 15.
00:01:47We've had six lead changes, three ties,
00:01:49and Minnesota Timberwolves led at one time by four.
00:01:54It's Edwards with 19.
00:01:57They'll dance on Fox and fade away again,
00:02:00and the rebound by Castle.
00:02:01And that's back-to-back mid-range shots
00:02:03for Anthony Edwards to start this half.
00:02:07It's Vassell,
00:02:09who will take it on top,
00:02:11and Rudy is out there to defend.
00:02:14Mbanyama in the opposite corner.
00:02:15Across the lane, Castle,
00:02:17with a nice move, a duck and a lean.
00:02:19A lot of contact, no call made,
00:02:21but they control the offensive rebound.
00:02:24And it's Vassell again,
00:02:26working on Gobert.
00:02:27Baseline Fox, into two.
00:02:29Ball deflected.
00:02:30Edwards has it.
00:02:32Dosumu on the fly,
00:02:33on the wing, Randall.
00:02:35Into Castle,
00:02:36out to Edwards,
00:02:37in the corner,
00:02:38and they'll work it around.
00:02:43It's Dosumu with a three,
00:02:44and a Champagny rebound.
00:02:46This turns out to be
00:02:47a pretty defensive half to start
00:02:50in the second half,
00:02:52as both teams are doing a great job
00:02:53of closing off the corner,
00:02:55something they struggled with.
00:02:57Mbanyama tried to get it,
00:02:58and then was shoved,
00:02:59and retake it at the other end
00:03:01by the Spurs.
00:03:03And Castle sets,
00:03:04fires three.
00:03:05Good.
00:03:08Also two.
00:03:09The refs are allowing them to play,
00:03:10and I think, you know,
00:03:11the players gotta get out of it.
00:03:12They gotta get out of the refs,
00:03:13gotta get out of looking at them
00:03:14every time.
00:03:15This is the second round of the playoffs.
00:03:16It's gonna get more physical,
00:03:18and the refs are allowing you
00:03:19to get away with a little bit extra.
00:03:22McDaniels rattles out.
00:03:23Dosumu parachutes in,
00:03:24gets the ball,
00:03:26Gobert converts for two.
00:03:28Rudy Gobert quietly having
00:03:30an efficient game,
00:03:32led the NBA in field goal percentage
00:03:34in the regular season.
00:03:35Five of five,
00:03:36ten points.
00:03:36Nice little floater.
00:03:37Second chance points for Minnesota,
00:03:3916-4,
00:03:40wide open.
00:03:41It's Wempanyama,
00:03:42finally hitting from outside.
00:03:43He had struggled
00:03:44with his three-point shooting,
00:03:46coming into tonight,
00:03:48two of 15,
00:03:50and from three now,
00:03:51one of two this evening.
00:03:53Wemby didn't have the show
00:03:54of Rudy like that.
00:03:55Rudy hit a 12-footer,
00:03:56and then Wemby gonna come back
00:03:57and shoot a 35-footer.
00:03:59Look at the holding inside
00:04:01with Gobert,
00:04:03and Wemby Niamma's
00:04:04gonna pick up the foul.
00:04:05And Wemby just knew
00:04:07that that foul was on Gobert.
00:04:09As Gobert,
00:04:10the savvy vet,
00:04:13hooking and holding
00:04:14on that right here.
00:04:15Watch this, D-Wade,
00:04:16a runner from Randall
00:04:17at the free throw line,
00:04:17and then Gobert
00:04:22probably was on that
00:04:23end of the foul call
00:04:24right there.
00:04:25Randall takes it,
00:04:26kicks it.
00:04:30With five to fire,
00:04:31McDaniels is fouled
00:04:33by Champagny
00:04:34on that baseline.
00:04:37And Champagny
00:04:38picks up number two.
00:04:42The Tony brothers
00:04:43is not the referee
00:04:44that you wanna talk to
00:04:46like that.
00:04:47Y'all need to lead
00:04:47Tony brothers alone.
00:04:4932 years in the league,
00:04:50he has heard every word
00:04:51backwards, forwards,
00:04:52and inside out.
00:04:57Well, there it's at the
00:04:58screen on the
00:05:00handoff to McDaniels.
00:05:02Flurks his way
00:05:03into the defense
00:05:04of Champagny.
00:05:07He's got 10.
00:05:09He's quietly putting
00:05:10together, you know,
00:05:12a solid performance.
00:05:13You know, he's the one
00:05:14guy that they know
00:05:15can get his shot off
00:05:17versus the cell
00:05:18shoots a long three.
00:05:18He's the one guy that
00:05:19can get his shot off
00:05:20versus anybody that's
00:05:21on the floor.
00:05:22Even Wemby, he shoots
00:05:23shots in the paint
00:05:23over Wemby.
00:05:24And so, Jake McDaniels
00:05:25is a guy that they're
00:05:26definitely gonna need
00:05:27to get going down the
00:05:28stretch.
00:05:29here comes Randall.
00:05:31Champagny is there.
00:05:32And a pass for Wayne
00:05:33leaning in, pulls the trigger.
00:05:35Got the miss.
00:05:36Shot on the play.
00:05:37Down Wimbanyama.
00:05:39Right there, Wemby
00:05:40was bouncing off of
00:05:42Gobert and Randall
00:05:44on that possession.
00:05:46Gobert did a great job
00:05:47of shielding Wemby off
00:05:48on this drive.
00:05:49Look at the Gobert.
00:05:50Just two hands there.
00:05:52Wemby works his way
00:05:53back into the play.
00:05:54And then again right
00:05:56here, you gotta get him
00:05:57off you to have a chance
00:05:59and a shot at the rim.
00:06:02He's like, move back,
00:06:03bro.
00:06:04Randall checks out.
00:06:06Najri checks in.
00:06:09Wemby Nyama will find
00:06:10Castle.
00:06:15It's Devin Vassell.
00:06:16Wide open lane.
00:06:17Wow!
00:06:21Oh, my goodness.
00:06:22Did you see Wemby
00:06:24start the offense
00:06:25and then get a flare screen?
00:06:26I know Shaq somewhere
00:06:27either smiling or hating
00:06:29for sure,
00:06:29because you see a big guy
00:06:31doing everything
00:06:31he wanted to do.
00:06:32Edwards will work his way,
00:06:34sneaking for two
00:06:35as he had to work
00:06:36about three defensive players
00:06:38with a head fake
00:06:38and got it to go
00:06:40in a congested lane.
00:06:44Here's Fox.
00:06:47Champagny.
00:06:47It's a three.
00:06:49He's over 50%
00:06:50from three-point territory
00:06:52in the playoffs,
00:06:52the number one shooter
00:06:53percentage-wide
00:06:55in this postseason.
00:06:58Reed around the screen.
00:07:02Nas sets up
00:07:03his triple.
00:07:04Good!
00:07:08And Nas Reed
00:07:09making an impact
00:07:12off the break.
00:07:14How about that?
00:07:15People forget
00:07:16De'Aaron Fox
00:07:17end-to-end
00:07:18off of a make.
00:07:19What speed!
00:07:20But his sell
00:07:21right there.
00:07:22The ball fake
00:07:23and then challenging
00:07:26Rudy Gobert
00:07:27and Nas Reed
00:07:28doing a good job
00:07:28quieting the run.
00:07:31De'Aaron McDaniels
00:07:32picks up
00:07:32his third personal foul,
00:07:33Dwayne,
00:07:34with a 7.18
00:07:35to go here in the third.
00:07:36Well, De'Aaron Fox
00:07:37just call him
00:07:38Meek Meek.
00:07:39He just,
00:07:39when he gets the ball
00:07:40he gets down
00:07:41and he's getting
00:07:42downhill like that.
00:07:43Just,
00:07:43he puts so much pressure
00:07:44on the team
00:07:45in the basket.
00:07:46We forget,
00:07:47like Candace said,
00:07:48how quick this guy
00:07:49was the fastest guy
00:07:50in the league,
00:07:50him and John Wall
00:07:51for a very long time.
00:07:52And they're gonna need
00:07:54that.
00:07:54They're gonna need
00:07:54more depth
00:07:55than Fox getting
00:07:55downhill,
00:07:56putting that pressure
00:07:57on the rim.
00:08:00San Antonio
00:08:01which now missed
00:08:01seven free throws
00:08:02tonight.
00:08:03Reed.
00:08:04Good pocket pass
00:08:06on the fly,
00:08:06Edwards.
00:08:09Edwards with 23.
00:08:11And doing a good job
00:08:12passing and cutting.
00:08:13The hardest thing
00:08:14if you're a superstar,
00:08:15you gotta continue
00:08:16to move off
00:08:17of the ball.
00:08:18Let's go,
00:08:19let's go.
00:08:20Benny in the corner,
00:08:21it's a three
00:08:21and a Gobert rebound.
00:08:24Yeah,
00:08:25he allowed for
00:08:25San Antonio
00:08:26to deny him last game
00:08:28when he was off
00:08:28the ball.
00:08:29And so,
00:08:29just great,
00:08:30great recognition
00:08:31right there by Ant-Man
00:08:32not to stay still
00:08:33and get the back up.
00:08:34Big three by Io.
00:08:38Dosumu drills
00:08:39the three.
00:08:41Vassell on the end,
00:08:42he knocks
00:08:42in a triple.
00:08:44It's a shootout
00:08:45to start this game
00:08:47right now
00:08:47from downtown
00:08:49as both teams
00:08:49struggled in the first half
00:08:51from beyond the arc.
00:08:52The Daniels
00:08:53catches the three.
00:08:57Both teams
00:08:58catching each other
00:08:58not set on the
00:08:59defensive end
00:09:00of the floor
00:09:00and they're taking
00:09:01advantage of the
00:09:01opportunity
00:09:02to score quickly
00:09:04Fox,
00:09:05Christian,
00:09:06firing,
00:09:06no.
00:09:07Rebound,
00:09:08hustle play,
00:09:09Vassell vacuums it in.
00:09:11Fox,
00:09:11three,
00:09:12yes!
00:09:14Timeout taken.
00:09:15Back and forth
00:09:16we go.
00:09:17Three point shots
00:09:18at both ends
00:09:19of the floor.
00:09:24and be there player
00:09:25presented by State Farm.
00:09:28A game high
00:09:2823 so far
00:09:29for Anthony Edwards.
00:09:31Well,
00:09:31that man,
00:09:3123 points,
00:09:3210 rebounds,
00:09:33but, you know,
00:09:33he's playing
00:09:34inspired basketball
00:09:35right now.
00:09:36Aggressive,
00:09:37attacking downhill,
00:09:38but under control.
00:09:40Obviously,
00:09:40he got the three ball
00:09:41going early on,
00:09:42but what I love
00:09:43about him is
00:09:43his patience,
00:09:44not really forcing
00:09:45a lot of things,
00:09:46playing within the game
00:09:47and playing with his teammates,
00:09:48but also at the same time,
00:09:50let and cook,
00:09:51and he cooking.
00:09:53In this third quarter,
00:09:56San Antonio,
00:09:57five of seven
00:09:58from distance,
00:09:59five different threes
00:10:00hit different players.
00:10:02Minnesota,
00:10:03three of four
00:10:03by three different players.
00:10:05Shannon is in.
00:10:07Now to Edwards,
00:10:08cutting his read
00:10:09on top Gobert,
00:10:11and Cornette
00:10:12comes out on him.
00:10:14Dylan Harper's in.
00:10:15Screen by Gobert.
00:10:17Step back three
00:10:18by Edwards.
00:10:19Rebound.
00:10:20Gobert and volleyballs it,
00:10:21but Vassell
00:10:22will take it
00:10:23the other way
00:10:24for the Spurs.
00:10:25Castle.
00:10:26Nice hesitation
00:10:27is set up
00:10:29and set the offense
00:10:30five and a half
00:10:31to play in the third.
00:10:32And you're going to see
00:10:32a lot of offense
00:10:33run through Vassell
00:10:34right here with
00:10:35Quimby out of the game.
00:10:37Foul.
00:10:37Gobert shoves down
00:10:38Cornette on the feed
00:10:40as he was catching
00:10:41in stride.
00:10:42Gobert number two.
00:10:48We saw Rudy
00:10:49a couple times
00:10:49in that Denver series
00:10:50and he was terrific
00:10:51against Jokic.
00:10:52How about Gobert?
00:10:54In the first round
00:10:55he's got Jokic.
00:10:56In the second round
00:10:57he's got Wimbenyama.
00:10:58I mean,
00:10:58I can't think of a player
00:10:59who's had two more
00:11:01difficult defensive
00:11:02assignments.
00:11:03Here's Cornette
00:11:04over Gobert
00:11:05and gets it to go.
00:11:06And he's done
00:11:07a great job.
00:11:08You cannot shut down.
00:11:10You cannot stop
00:11:11Jokic or Wimbeny
00:11:13but Rudy has done
00:11:14a great job
00:11:14and I think
00:11:15this has been
00:11:15a great playoff series
00:11:16defensively for him
00:11:17for all the naysayers.
00:11:18Reed with a nice little
00:11:19shake and big move
00:11:20to get two inside
00:11:21with an offhand.
00:11:22And Reed and Randall
00:11:24have really taken
00:11:25advantage of that
00:11:26middle of the floor
00:11:27iso above the break
00:11:29where it's tough
00:11:29for the defense
00:11:31to double.
00:11:32Under five to go
00:11:33here in the third.
00:11:34Driving
00:11:36is the second
00:11:37overall pick
00:11:37in the draft.
00:11:38Dylan Harper.
00:11:39Castle sets,
00:11:40fires three,
00:11:42no,
00:11:42rebound
00:11:43and the 11th one
00:11:44for Edwards
00:11:45has got a double-double.
00:11:47Reed
00:11:48by Cornette
00:11:49on the wing.
00:11:50McDaniels deflected
00:11:52by the ever-present
00:11:53Harper.
00:11:53And he's down
00:11:55and hurt
00:11:55four on five.
00:11:57It's Vassell
00:11:58and Cornette
00:12:00and Castle
00:12:01and a timeout
00:12:02taken by San Antonio
00:12:04as Dylan Harper
00:12:05is still down.
00:12:06Oh,
00:12:07and a shot.
00:12:10As Castle
00:12:11was sticking
00:12:11his nose in there
00:12:12and McDaniels
00:12:14has to be restrained.
00:12:21We've seen
00:12:22Jaden McDaniels
00:12:23be at the center
00:12:24of this
00:12:24in both rounds
00:12:26of these playoffs.
00:12:27We understand
00:12:27roles.
00:12:30We understand
00:12:31what he's trying
00:12:31to do
00:12:32but right here
00:12:32you want
00:12:33both teams
00:12:34to make sure
00:12:34that their guys
00:12:35are on the floor
00:12:36during this game.
00:12:38Let's watch it again.
00:12:43Oh,
00:12:44that knee.
00:12:45That knee got him.
00:12:46Yep, you're right.
00:12:47Goodness.
00:12:47And then the foot.
00:12:57I think Jaden McDaniels
00:12:59he has to
00:13:00he has to watch out.
00:13:01I know he wants
00:13:02that smoke
00:13:02and we all love
00:13:03how tough he is
00:13:04but he's too important
00:13:06to this team
00:13:07right now
00:13:08to not be
00:13:09on this basketball court.
00:13:10They're going to look at it.
00:13:11There's a timeout
00:13:12on the floor
00:13:13418 to go
00:13:14in the third
00:13:15in this game three
00:13:17series tied
00:13:191-1.
00:13:22Chippiness continues
00:13:23here in game three
00:13:24spilling over
00:13:25from game two
00:13:26moments ago
00:13:28McDaniels
00:13:28and Castle
00:13:31after
00:13:33a player was down
00:13:34and that was Harper
00:13:35at the other end
00:13:36and then you can see
00:13:37the little shove
00:13:38right there.
00:13:39There's Castle
00:13:39a little frustrated
00:13:41with what
00:13:42took place.
00:13:43And that lingers
00:13:44back to game two
00:13:46when we saw
00:13:48a 38 point win
00:13:50for the Spurs
00:13:51after this jump
00:13:53Castle again
00:13:54with Bones Highlander.
00:13:56Yeah, the common
00:13:57denominator in these
00:13:58two is Castle
00:13:59but when you seek
00:14:00as much contact
00:14:01and physicality
00:14:01Castle wants all the smoke
00:14:03even in his second year
00:14:04but D. Wade
00:14:05I'm impressed
00:14:06McDaniels facial expression
00:14:07has not changed.
00:14:09It has not changed
00:14:10one time
00:14:11in this entire
00:14:12playoff series.
00:14:14Double T
00:14:15McDaniels
00:14:16and Castle
00:14:17I love it
00:14:18this is playoff basketball
00:14:20it is now game three
00:14:21you don't like you
00:14:22it's like
00:14:23that little push and shove
00:14:24shows me that
00:14:24I'm just getting tired of you
00:14:26you're frustrating me a lot
00:14:27I like it
00:14:28Rembinyama
00:14:30as he goes right over
00:14:32the defending
00:14:34Terrence Shannon
00:14:37what a luxury
00:14:38in your playbook
00:14:40to have
00:14:40an away screen
00:14:41for your 7 foot 4 center
00:14:43to come off
00:14:45off of a curl
00:14:46and make a play
00:14:47and get to the free throw line
00:14:48it's crazy
00:14:50Shannon number one
00:14:54Rembinyama
00:14:54at the free throw line
00:14:554-6
00:14:56with his 19 points
00:14:579 rebounds
00:14:58and 2 blocks

00:17:12from that
00:17:12standpoint
00:17:13because he played

00:17:14intense
00:17:16possessions
00:17:16in the playoff
00:17:18Rembenyama's

00:17:34double
00:17:34contest shots
00:17:36it causes
00:17:37a lot of problems
00:17:37for offenses
00:17:40Candice

00:17:53everyone's trying
00:17:54to be physical
00:17:55on him
00:17:55as Rudy
00:17:55go up
00:17:56and do his
00:17:57version of
00:17:58what Wimby's
00:17:58been doing
00:17:59and let's get
00:17:59that out of here
00:18:00but yeah
00:18:01man you can
00:18:01look at
00:18:02Wimby's arm
00:18:02a lot of
00:18:03physicality
00:18:03has been
00:18:04pushed towards
00:18:04that young man
00:18:05Vassell
00:18:06the miss
00:18:06rebound
00:18:07Reed
00:18:07downcourt
00:18:08Shannon
00:18:08and the hesitation
00:18:10with Edwards
00:18:10with it
00:18:12Edwards
00:18:12with 23
00:18:13and a double
00:18:14double
00:18:14splits the defense
00:18:15takes it in
00:18:16and on the move
00:18:17got the deuce
00:18:20right there
00:18:20Edwards
00:18:21with two drapes
00:18:22all over him
00:18:23still is able
00:18:24to get the ball
00:18:25to go
00:18:25I love Edwards
00:18:26playing out of that
00:18:27mid-range spot
00:18:28I'd like to see him
00:18:29get the ball
00:18:29it's not as much
00:18:30energy
00:18:31to score
00:18:32from there
00:18:33Castle
00:18:34bulldozing
00:18:35inside
00:18:35that's a foul
00:18:44he's on the stand
00:18:45as well
00:18:46now
00:18:46the referees
00:18:47are going to be
00:18:47looking at him
00:18:48a little closer
00:18:49he's been involved
00:18:50in probably
00:18:50all
00:18:51the tussles
00:18:52back and forth
00:18:53tonight
00:18:55and so he's
00:18:56going to be
00:18:57watched very closely
00:18:57he's got
00:18:58he has to pay
00:18:59attention to that
00:18:59himself
00:18:59and on the other
00:19:00end
00:19:01shannon jr
00:19:01drawing yet another
00:19:02offensive foul
00:19:03that's his third
00:19:04on the ninth
00:19:06there's more ways
00:19:07to impact the game
00:19:08than just almost
00:19:09Edwards
00:19:10who's looked good
00:19:11corner three
00:19:12Dosumu
00:19:13puts it down
00:19:18it's a two point game
00:19:21Fox
00:19:22back in
00:19:23driving on
00:19:23Dosumu
00:19:24and over
00:19:25and you're
00:19:26going to see
00:19:26a lot of that
00:19:27you're going to see
00:19:27a lot of the Fox
00:19:28Wimby pick and roll
00:19:29you have to absorb
00:19:30Wimby rolling to the
00:19:31roll which gives
00:19:32De'Aaron Fox
00:19:33a driving lane
00:19:34I love when you see
00:19:35a player working on
00:19:36some candidates
00:19:36either before the game
00:19:37or at halftime
00:19:38and then you come out
00:19:39and they get that
00:19:39success
00:19:40I.O. was working
00:19:41on that corner three
00:19:42when we came out
00:19:42of the timeout
00:19:43and to see him get
00:19:44that early success
00:19:45and see it go down
00:19:46for him is good
00:19:46now yeah he pulls up
00:19:48a different kind of shot
00:19:49as he penetrates
00:19:51and gets the floor
00:19:51to the go
00:19:52and now he's got eight
00:19:54starting the second half
00:19:55off the bench
00:19:56in the first
00:19:56on top
00:19:57Wimby Nyama

00:20:09with twenty three
00:20:10a seven foot four
00:20:11handler
00:20:12screen and roll
00:20:13crazy
00:20:14going downhill
00:20:15with a nice footer
00:20:16off the glass
00:20:18Edwards with twenty five
00:20:19launching a three
00:20:22there was a foul inside
00:20:23it was called
00:20:24on San Antonio
00:20:25you could see
00:20:25the jersey being
00:20:26jogged
00:20:28well just looking
00:20:28at this play right
00:20:29here look at
00:20:30Keldon Johnson
00:20:30screens in
00:20:31Nas Reed
00:20:32screens his own
00:20:32man also
00:20:33kind of gets
00:20:34Rudy as well
00:20:35and then when we
00:20:36go down
00:20:36take the contact
00:20:37and you know
00:20:38obviously makes it
00:20:39nice and neat
00:20:40well the
00:20:40Timberwolves
00:20:41don't want to switch
00:20:42on that screen
00:20:43and roll
00:20:43but Nas Reed
00:20:44has to be
00:20:44on the other side
00:20:45to at least give
00:20:46a little bit
00:20:47of help
00:20:47to read
00:20:48Oguera
00:20:48Rembenyama
00:20:49picked up
00:20:50his third
00:20:50stopping
00:20:51starting
00:20:51firing
00:20:52rejected
00:20:52by Rembenyama
00:20:54he's got
00:20:55three
00:20:55the other way
00:20:56Johnson
00:20:56tries
00:20:56slices
00:20:57and a foul
00:21:00Wimby upset
00:21:01on this end
00:21:02blocks Anthony
00:21:03Edwards
00:21:03shot
00:21:04Anthony Edwards
00:21:05grabs Wimby's
00:21:07shot
00:21:07you see right
00:21:07here
00:21:07Ant Edwards
00:21:08taking on
00:21:09Wimby
00:21:10blocked the
00:21:11shot
00:21:11and then watch
00:21:12this
00:21:12when Wimby
00:21:13tries to run
00:21:14look at Ant
00:21:14with a little
00:21:15bat move
00:21:17I'd hold
00:21:18him too
00:21:21Wimby was
00:21:22upset
00:21:22you're like
00:21:23slow down
00:21:23big fella
00:21:33Candace this is
00:21:34your first time
00:21:35seeing Wimby
00:21:35play in person
00:21:37what you think
00:21:38even seeing him
00:21:39out here on the
00:21:39court right in front
00:21:40of us
00:21:40what you think
00:21:40well I think the
00:21:41thing that sticks
00:21:42out to me
00:21:43yes we can talk
00:21:43about across the
00:21:44board
00:21:45I mean he had
00:21:4612 blocks
00:21:48NBA record
00:21:48in a single game
00:21:49in the playoffs
00:21:50we could talk
00:21:51about that
00:21:51but I like the
00:21:52intangibles
00:21:53the shots that
00:21:54he deters
00:21:56the offenses
00:21:56that he impacts
00:21:58on the defensive
00:21:59end if you're
00:22:00defending him
00:22:01the way he's able
00:22:02to get other
00:22:03players open
00:22:04just by his
00:22:05gravity
00:22:05I mean I think
00:22:06that's a word
00:22:07that we throw
00:22:07around lightly
00:22:08but there's
00:22:09there's a gravity
00:22:10around this
00:22:117 foot 4
00:22:12Wimby Nama
00:22:14game 1
00:22:15he had the
00:22:15triple double
00:22:16with 12 blocks
00:22:1611 points
00:22:1715 rebounds
00:22:18Dwayne had a
00:22:19double double
00:22:19in game 2
00:22:2019 and 15
00:22:21and tonight
00:22:22Wimby Nama
00:22:24has got 23 points
00:22:269 rebounds
00:22:26and 3 blocks
00:22:27well just the luxury
00:22:28that the San Antonio
00:22:30Spurs coaching staff
00:22:31has
00:22:32where you can put
00:22:32Wimby anywhere
00:22:33on the floor
00:22:35on both sides
00:22:35of the ball
00:22:36not many players
00:22:37that you can say
00:22:38that everyone
00:22:39has a weakness
00:22:39and if Wimby
00:22:41weakness is
00:22:41he's not shooting
00:22:42the three ball
00:22:43well in this series
00:22:44that's not really
00:22:45a weakness
00:22:46because we saw
00:22:46we know he can
00:22:47make the shots
00:22:47and so
00:22:48and just a guy
00:22:49who can do all things
00:22:50Keldon Johnson
00:22:52will be at the line
00:22:532 of 6 from the floor
00:22:55hits the free throw
00:22:56right there
00:22:56he's been struggling
00:22:57with his shot
00:22:58in the lane
00:22:59only 36%

00:23:28Minnesota wanted
00:23:30wanted to get back
00:23:31on the road here
00:23:33San Antonio
00:23:3416 of 24
00:23:35like you said
00:23:35but
00:23:37it is going to
00:23:38come down
00:23:38to the free throw
00:23:39the charity stripe
00:23:40points in the paint
00:23:42who can impose
00:23:43their will
00:23:43physically
00:23:45to go into

00:23:47the super three
00:23:50rebound
00:23:51Champagny
00:23:51and finishing up
00:23:53Minnesota's not been
00:23:54at the free throw
00:23:54line
00:23:55in this third quarter
00:23:5610 by San Antonio
00:23:59Rissell
00:23:59short range shot

00:24:01the rebound
00:24:02outside
00:24:03three
00:24:04Keldon Johnson
00:24:04bullseye
00:24:05and the best time
00:24:07to shoot a three
00:24:07is off of offensive
00:24:08rebound
00:24:09great hustle
00:24:10to get the ball
00:24:11out
00:24:12Johnson
00:24:12no thought process
00:24:14on that one
00:24:14just let it fly
00:24:15Edwards goes
00:24:16into the cell
00:24:17met by
00:24:18Rembenyama
00:24:18with a whistle
00:24:19and a Wimby foul
00:24:21with 31 seconds
00:24:23to go
00:24:23he wants them
00:24:24to challenge
00:24:25they have no
00:24:26challenge left
00:24:27he used it on that
00:24:28he was
00:24:29moving his hands
00:24:30it up
00:24:30and they were
00:24:31shaking their head
00:24:32on the other side
00:24:32as they've gotten
00:24:33on the left
00:24:33that's number four
00:24:35on Victor Rembenyama
00:24:36it looked like
00:24:37he got him
00:24:37across the shoulder
00:24:38yeah he did
00:24:38he got him
00:24:39across the shoulder
00:24:40on that one
00:24:41I think one thing
00:24:42for Rudy
00:24:42is you know
00:24:44the guys attack
00:24:45Wimby's a shot blocker
00:24:46he's gonna come
00:24:47you know
00:24:47as far out
00:24:48as he needs to
00:24:49just Rudy
00:24:50releasing a little bit
00:24:51sooner as he sees
00:24:52Wimby going up
00:24:54release a little bit
00:24:54so your outlet
00:24:56your safety valve
00:24:57for your guards
00:24:58and so you know
00:24:59I know he's down there
00:25:00battling with him
00:25:01but just releasing
00:25:02so he can get
00:25:02some easy points
00:25:03as well
00:25:04well Rudy is a
00:25:05pick and roll player
00:25:06he's used to running out
00:25:07rolling to the rim
00:25:08Coach Finch said
00:25:10it is imperative
00:25:10that Rudy Gobert
00:25:11in this series
00:25:12plays in the dunker spot
00:25:13because then you
00:25:14give your guys
00:25:15an outlet
00:25:16to throw to
00:25:16when
00:25:17when Binyama
00:25:18comes over
00:25:18and helps out
00:25:21Final half minute
00:25:23of the third
00:25:25Castle and Edwards
00:25:27Fox and Dos Sumer

00:25:38Rebound Edwards
00:25:39Final seconds
00:25:40of the third
00:25:45The collision

00:25:51Timberwolves
00:25:52have trailed the Spurs
00:25:53through three quarters
00:25:54in each of their six games
00:25:57this season
00:25:58and San Antonio
00:26:00up by seven
00:26:02plus 75 points

00:26:10State Farm
00:26:19First deep dive
00:26:21let's talk about
00:26:21the value
00:26:22of young talent
00:26:24against veteran leadership
00:26:25and the numbers
00:26:27are interesting
00:26:27how much Minnesota
00:26:28possesses
00:26:29and just how young
00:26:31these Spurs are
00:26:32in terms of
00:26:33postseason experience
00:26:35if you want to dive
00:26:36deeper into this
00:26:37or any NBA playoffs
00:26:39top as AI mode
00:26:41in Google search
00:26:43both Minnesota
00:26:44and the Spurs
00:26:45have the top two
00:26:47net ratings
00:26:48in the fourth quarter
00:26:49in these playoffs
00:26:50so we are harnessed in
00:26:52and ready to go
00:26:52Series tied at one
00:26:54Castle
00:26:55Rembenyama
00:26:57battled it away

00:26:59McDaniels to Dosumu
00:27:01corner three
00:27:02up and off
00:27:04by Randall
00:27:04and another rebound
00:27:06by Rembenyama
00:27:07ten
00:27:08for him
00:27:09I'd love to see
00:27:11Randall catch
00:27:11an attack
00:27:12they're trying to get
00:27:13back in transition
00:27:14right there
00:27:15that's the moment
00:27:16right there
00:27:16when you put pressure
00:27:17on the basket
00:27:17you don't settle
00:27:18for that corner three
00:27:19you can get that
00:27:20anytime
00:27:21Gobert on the bench
00:27:22shot clock at five
00:27:24Carter is in
00:27:25the rookie
00:27:25and Dosumu
00:27:27pushes Rembenyama
00:27:28in a foul
00:27:29it goes on
00:27:30Terence
00:27:31make it
00:27:32Iso
00:27:35Ayo Dosumu
00:27:36who picks up
00:27:37his third
00:27:37and Rembenyama
00:27:39in the act of shooting
00:27:40will be at the wine
00:27:41for San Antonio
00:27:43right here
00:27:44Ayo doing everything
00:27:45he can to keep him
00:27:47from catching it
00:27:47Wimby
00:27:49trying to get to
00:27:49that turnaround
00:27:51Ayo pushing him
00:27:52off his spot
00:27:53you know it's
00:27:54interesting
00:27:54we've watched Edwards
00:27:55and he has looked
00:27:56like there's no issue
00:27:57at all with either knee
00:27:58and both are injured
00:27:59he's 60% in the words
00:28:01of his coach
00:28:02and then we got
00:28:04Dosumu
00:28:04who has missed
00:28:06the last couple games
00:28:07he was a game time
00:28:08decision
00:28:08he's played a ton
00:28:10of minutes
00:28:10and began
00:28:11the second half
00:28:12on the floor
00:28:12for the Wolves
00:28:13yeah well I could have
00:28:14played another two years
00:28:15if I had what they got
00:28:16I don't know what they got
00:28:17but they got
00:28:19incredible medical staff
00:28:20but whatever they got
00:28:21it's incredible
00:28:22but yes
00:28:22these two guys
00:28:23and when you out there
00:28:24on the floor
00:28:24you do not want to show
00:28:26that you're injured
00:28:27that you're hurt
00:28:28or anything like that
00:28:29because the team
00:28:30is going to make sure
00:28:30that when they see that
00:28:31they're going to pounce on it
00:28:32and so I love the fact
00:28:33that these two guys
00:28:34have not shown
00:28:35shown any signs
00:28:37of being hampered
00:28:38at all
00:28:38San Antonio's
00:28:40in a 9-2 run
00:28:41here's Dosumu
00:28:43McDaniels
00:28:43Shannon
00:28:44a lot of athleticism
00:28:46on the floor
00:28:46for the Wolves
00:28:50he'll set
00:28:51he'll jab step
00:28:52and fire
00:28:54Dan Reed
00:28:55trying to knock it in
00:28:56could not
00:28:56Carter had it
00:28:57stripped of the ball
00:28:58by McDaniels
00:29:00it's Randall
00:29:01goes into the flay
00:29:02tries to drive
00:29:03blasting his way
00:29:04and a foul
00:29:05and we saw the spurt
00:29:06that Randall had
00:29:07in that second quarter
00:29:08when the ball
00:29:09was in his hands
00:29:09and he got
00:29:10to the free throw line
00:29:11he got to the free throw line
00:29:12two separate times
00:29:13just attacking
00:29:14right there
00:29:14giving up the three
00:29:16to get to the paint
00:29:18and put pressure
00:29:19on the Spurs defense
00:29:20Alden Johnson
00:29:21just picked up the foul
00:29:23and for him
00:29:24number one
00:29:25at the free throw line
00:29:27is Randall
00:29:28that is his seventh point
00:29:30Randall from the floor
00:29:31is one of eight
00:29:32five of five
00:29:34from the stripe
00:29:35and one of eight
00:29:36is not what Minnesota needs
00:29:39Randall needs to have a
00:29:41big game down the stretch
00:29:43here and I think
00:29:43the big game
00:29:44in balls
00:29:45with Randall
00:29:46being in the paint
00:29:48and not settling
00:29:49for jump shots
00:29:50Minnesota the highest
00:29:51scoring fourth quarter
00:29:52it's in these playoffs
00:29:53it's Castle
00:29:54getting there
00:29:56shot blocked inside
00:29:57by Reed
00:29:58two on one
00:29:59Randall to the hole
00:30:00no
00:30:01picked up by Benyama
00:30:02fouled by McDaniels
00:30:05Randall needs to settle
00:30:06a little bit
00:30:07he I think he knows
00:30:09that he only has
00:30:10eight points right now
00:30:11as you see
00:30:12the second effort
00:30:13right here
00:30:13that's what it's all about
00:30:14it's all about
00:30:15the second efforts
00:30:16when you're trying
00:30:16to win a playoff game
00:30:17but Julius Randall
00:30:19just need to slow down
00:30:20a little bit
00:30:20he got to the free throw line
00:30:21saw the ball go in
00:30:23have a little bit more
00:30:24patience with yourself
00:30:25that's an easy layup
00:30:26right there that he missed
00:30:27he rushed it
00:30:28McDaniels with his fourth foul
00:30:29here comes Fox
00:30:31Randall there
00:30:32into the double team
00:30:33when Benyama
00:30:34and he spins
00:30:34and gets the deuce
00:30:35he's got 27 points
00:30:39well you know
00:30:39where the Spurs
00:30:40are going to go
00:30:41with Rudy Gobert
00:30:42off of the floor
00:30:43they're going to go
00:30:44to Wendy in the paint
00:30:46Randall across the lane
00:30:48that Daniels
00:30:49into the lane
00:30:51rebound
00:30:51outside the lane
00:30:53and off of San Antonio
00:30:55as Carter could not
00:30:56reel it in
00:30:57Carter Bryant
00:30:58couldn't get it inside
00:30:59so it's off the Spurs
00:31:01and Minnesota
00:31:01to inbound
00:31:02two minutes gone
00:31:03here in the fourth
00:31:06it's a luxury
00:31:07that the San Antonio
00:31:08Spurs have
00:31:09when you know
00:31:09you have Wimby
00:31:10behind you
00:31:11it allows you
00:31:12to be a better
00:31:12defender on the ball
00:31:13to apply more pressure
00:31:15on the ball
00:31:16and take more chances
00:31:17Terran Shannon
00:31:18free
00:31:22Shannon getting
00:31:23his first bucket
00:31:24of the game
00:31:25but his presence
00:31:26has been far beyond
00:31:27the three points
00:31:28that he has
00:31:29on the defensive end
00:31:30doing a little bit
00:31:31of everything
00:31:31Fox with an open three
00:31:34Rembenyana gets it
00:31:35and puts it back up
00:31:36and in
00:31:36did you just see that
00:31:37yes
00:31:38that's what
00:31:38that's what I've been
00:31:39wanting big guys
00:31:40to do forever
00:31:41don't bring the ball
00:31:42down to where the guards
00:31:43can strip you
00:31:43keep it up
00:31:44keep it high
00:31:44three
00:31:46and I don't think
00:31:48people realize
00:31:49when Ayo
00:31:50was acquired
00:31:51at the trade deadline
00:31:52how much of a three
00:31:54level scorer
00:31:55this guy is
00:31:55we saw it
00:31:56against the Denver Nuggets
00:31:58as Wimby
00:31:59knocks down the three
00:32:02he's having fun too
00:32:03Candice
00:32:04he's got seven points
00:32:06already in the fourth
00:32:07with three minutes
00:32:09gone
00:32:09in the fourth
00:32:10Rembenyana
00:32:1230 points for him
00:32:14driving inside
00:32:15McDaniels
00:32:15rebound by
00:32:17Victor Rembenyana
00:32:18he grabs another one
00:32:2013 for the game
00:32:22double-double for him
00:32:23Carter Bryant
00:32:25gets it off to Fox
00:32:26Rembenyana
00:32:27another three
00:32:28right here
00:32:37De'Aaron Fox
00:32:38facing the wide open
00:32:40three
00:32:40but Wimby
00:32:43throwing it to himself
00:32:44and then
00:32:45again
00:32:47knocking down the three
00:32:48saw one go in earlier
00:32:51now 204 from beyond the arc
00:32:53after struggling
00:32:54coming into this game
00:32:55he rushed that last one
00:32:57but his stroke has looked
00:32:58pretty good
00:32:59Carter Bryant will leave
00:33:01and Champagne will come in
00:33:03Edwards is in
00:33:04and Shannon leaves
00:33:05two substitutions
00:33:07was that a heat check three
00:33:09I think that was a frustration
00:33:11it was bad
00:33:12I think Daniels grabbed him
00:33:14running down the court
00:33:14so I'm gonna just shoot
00:33:15his air ball
00:33:17in the corner

00:33:21Randall

00:33:28with Wimbyn
00:33:28out of the paint
00:33:29testing the three
00:33:31in the corner
00:33:31Randall has to clean up

00:36:36and right there
00:36:38Julius Randle
00:36:41giving everything
00:36:42he had right there
00:36:43Gobert
00:36:43a little touch
00:36:45a little touch
00:36:47on that
00:36:47not a pretty
00:36:49possession
00:36:49but that's the kind
00:36:51of possession
00:36:51if you're the
00:36:52Timberwolves
00:36:52that you
00:36:53that you want to see
00:36:54you got guys fighting
00:36:55for extra possessions
00:36:57and it ended with Rudy
00:36:59potentially getting
00:37:00an opportunity
00:37:00to get a
00:37:01end one
00:37:02Gobert's first
00:37:04trip to the line
00:37:05tonight
00:37:05and 12 of 31
00:37:07in the playoffs

00:37:10down but
00:37:11the Timberwolves
00:37:13with Wimby on the
00:37:13bench
00:37:14going straight
00:37:15to the paint
00:37:15Wimby back on the
00:37:16floor
00:37:16let's see what
00:37:17they do on the
00:37:18other end
00:37:20it's Fox
00:37:44and when the Spurs put
00:37:46on the ball like they just
00:37:48did
00:37:48against Anthony Edwards
00:37:50it is similar to a zone
00:37:53right
00:37:54McDaniels doing a great job
00:37:55of flashing on that
00:37:56right here
00:37:57but Wimby
00:37:57going up
00:38:00against the
00:38:01Stifle Tower
00:38:01and then McDaniels
00:38:02getting the ball
00:38:03in the middle of the
00:38:04free throw line
00:38:04almost zone like
00:38:05Wimby
00:38:06trying to contest
00:38:07and gets the foul
00:38:08Wimby Nama
00:38:09three blocks
00:38:10Gobert
00:38:10with three blocks
00:38:12Joe
00:38:12shout out to Rudy
00:38:13Gobert
00:38:14is
00:38:14seeing him
00:38:15be as active
00:38:16as he is
00:38:17and he just gave
00:38:17Rudy a little taste
00:38:18of his home medicine
00:38:19so shout out to Rudy
00:38:20going back to Edman
00:38:21just the adjustment
00:38:22we talked about
00:38:23with him
00:38:23giving the ball
00:38:24to the middle
00:38:25of the floor
00:38:26so once the trap
00:38:26comes
00:38:27he has the
00:38:28he can see
00:38:29the entire floor
00:38:30and he's allowed
00:38:31to be in the
00:38:32on the sideline
00:38:34where the defense
00:38:34can model him up
00:38:36one point a game
00:38:37Wolves on an
00:38:3811-4 run
00:38:39Castle
00:38:40cross court
00:38:41corner
00:38:41Champagny
00:38:42three
00:38:42good
00:38:43big time
00:38:44stroke
00:38:45and it looked like
00:38:46the entire
00:38:47Timberwolves
00:38:47Vince was
00:38:48trying to contest
00:38:49Champagny
00:38:49on that
00:38:50three
00:38:51as he knocks
00:38:51it down
00:38:52from the corner
00:38:52I don't think
00:38:53they can do that
00:38:53it's all for the foul
00:38:55there's McDaniel
00:38:57knocked away
00:38:58by Wendell

00:39:05and puts it
00:39:07back up
00:39:07and in

00:43:14to getting
00:43:15off the ball
00:43:15allowing for
00:43:16the other guys

00:44:59rebounds
00:45:01Candice
00:45:01you see a player
00:45:02who wants it
00:45:03you're looking at it
00:45:04right here
00:45:05number one
00:45:05he wants the ball
00:45:06every possession
00:45:07down
00:45:09ball knocked away
00:45:11Edwards
00:45:14he says
00:45:15it was off
00:45:15of San Antonio
00:45:19and a challenge
00:45:20and it looked like
00:45:21Castle felt that way
00:45:23as well
00:45:23when the ball
00:45:23went out of bounds
00:45:24he started walking
00:45:25the other way
00:45:27right here
00:45:28he said he was
00:45:29grabbing his arm
00:45:30look at that
00:45:31it was off
00:45:32cancel
00:45:33the way
00:45:33the game has been
00:45:34called
00:45:35down the stretch
00:45:36the question is
00:45:39is this a foul
00:45:40does it get overturned
00:45:41because it is a foul
00:45:461,000%
00:45:47but I don't think
00:45:50it's going to get overturned
00:45:51that's how they've been
00:45:52allowing him to guard
00:45:53coming down the stretch
00:45:57series tied at one
00:45:59and a tie series
00:46:01going into game three
00:46:03the winner
00:46:04as we mentioned
00:46:05a couple times
00:46:06has gone on
00:46:07to win the series
00:46:0873% of the time
00:46:11Rembinyama
00:46:12what do you
00:46:13what do you do
00:46:14on this
00:46:14you can't
00:46:15go under it
00:46:16you can't go around it
00:46:18you must go over it
00:46:19if he's hitting threes
00:46:20this man has 37
00:46:22in an efficient
00:46:2313 of 18
00:46:25you have 37 points
00:46:27on 18 shots
00:46:2837 points
00:46:29on 18 shots
00:46:303 of 5
00:46:30from 3
00:46:31just the intelligence
00:46:33Candice
00:46:33of Wimby
00:46:34to understand
00:46:36that Rudy
00:46:36Rudy is guarding him
00:46:37Rudy has his strengths
00:46:38and his strengths
00:46:39is not chasing him
00:46:40over a flare screen
00:46:41and so he knew
00:46:42that he would have
00:46:43the opportunity
00:46:43to at least stop and pop
00:46:45or get Rudy
00:46:46to now come out
00:46:47and have to guard him
00:46:47when now he puts
00:46:48the ball on the floor
00:46:48and has him
00:46:49at his mercy
00:46:505 blocks
00:46:51at the review
00:46:52the ball goes out of bounds
00:46:54last punch by Castle
00:46:56therefore the challenge
00:46:57is successful
00:46:58by Minnesota
00:47:01Minnesota will lose
00:47:02the timeout
00:47:03due to being
00:47:03their second challenge
00:47:04even though the challenge
00:47:06was successful
00:47:06it would be
00:47:07Minnesota ball
00:47:08on the side
00:47:0924 seconds
00:47:10on the 24 second shot clock
00:47:22so McDaniels
00:47:23will win brown
00:47:29you're talking about
00:47:30a star is born
00:47:31I mean this is
00:47:32when these
00:47:34what how many
00:47:35road games is this

00:47:42making all the big plays
00:47:44down the stretch
00:47:44this is when the stars
00:47:45are made
00:47:46in these environments
00:47:47in these moments
00:47:48it's Randall

00:48:18McDaniels
00:48:19dances down the way
00:48:20takes it in for two
00:48:21and again
00:48:22Wimby has to be careful
00:48:23with those five fouls
00:48:24McDaniels operating
00:48:26as the screener
00:48:28allowing Ant to make reads
00:48:30off of that play
00:48:32Castle has it
00:48:33and as he moves on him
00:48:35here's Vassell

00:48:56Wimby
00:48:57down below
00:48:58and
00:48:59that's what makes
00:49:00things so deadly
00:49:02they had to switch
00:49:03the pick and roll
00:49:04which puts Randall
00:49:05on De'Aaron Fox
00:49:06going to the hoop
00:49:07and

00:58:24over the

00:58:27Spurs win
00:58:28here in the
00:58:29Twin Cities
00:58:30in their last
00:58:31eight games
00:58:33Minnesota
00:58:34had
00:58:34been 3-0

00:58:43Allie Clifton
00:58:44thanks so much
00:58:45Kevin Deere
00:58:45and you guys
00:58:46come into a
00:58:47hostile environment
00:58:48Minnesota not
00:58:48making it easy
00:58:49at all
00:58:50offensively
00:58:51defensively
00:58:51how were you
00:58:52guys able to
00:58:52close this out
00:58:52and take game
00:58:53three
00:58:53I think we were
00:58:54able to execute
00:58:54in the second
00:58:55half
00:58:55and that's what
00:58:55it came up to
00:58:56obviously we had
00:58:57a great start
00:58:57to the game
00:58:58they fought back
00:58:59you know
00:58:59we didn't assume
00:59:00that it would
00:59:00be like game
00:59:01two
00:59:01they fought back
00:59:02and like I said
00:59:03in the second half
00:59:03we executed down
00:59:04the stretch
00:59:05and I think
00:59:05that's why
00:59:05we were ultimately
00:59:06able to come up
00:59:07with this win
00:59:08we talked pregame
00:59:08about the importance
00:59:09of poise and composure
00:59:11what impressed you
00:59:11most about your
00:59:12team's ability
00:59:13to be just that
00:59:14during their runs
00:59:15yeah especially
00:59:16when they went on
00:59:17that one the run
00:59:17in the fourth quarter
00:59:18we didn't turn
00:59:19the ball over
00:59:19I think we had
00:59:20maybe one
00:59:21but just being able
00:59:22to control the ball
00:59:23control the pace
00:59:24I think we played
00:59:24at our pace
00:59:25the entire game
00:59:25and I think that's
00:59:27kind of wore them
00:59:27down
00:59:27I mean we played
00:59:28ten guys
00:59:29so we try to come
00:59:30at teams in waves
