In case you weren’t aware, the Golden State Warriors are an incredible, incredible assembly of NBA talent.
While the Timberwolves lost by 13 points, they didn’t play all too badly. Outside of a sluggish start, the Wolves played the Warriors tough, and while answering a string of 3-pointers with Taj Gibson post-ups, Jeff Teague floaters, and mid-range jumpers from Gorgui Dieng won’t work out from a math perspective, it kept them in the game.
And for as much as TNT color commentator Chris Webber screamed about the Wolves needing to match the Warriors pace and not walk the ball up the court, and yadda, yadda, yadda, well … that’s not how you beat the Warriors.
