chance to tie the series and keep those championship dreams alive Shocking not that they lost but how badly they lost for the Minnesota starting five What a performance in this [Applause] postseason So Randall guarded by Williams Of course Dort is on Edwards There’s some great individual matchups but both these teams play spectacular team defense Dort trying to fight over a screen Go gets it Drives down the lane Shot blocked Homer got a piece of it and SGA comes the other way drives kicks it out right side Jaylen Williams nails the first shot of the Thunder And that’s what they do Mike That’s that block Now I love to see which team is going to meet that intensity first Connley setting it up Randle’s got the mismatch with SGA Turn shoots and gets it a go He allowed strong left hand His touch is incredible He had the ultimate bounceback game Again benched in the fourth quarter of game two Started really well in game three Jaylen Williams talk about bouncing back He’s knocked down his first two shots He was just three of nine from the field in game three Nobody played well for OKC Jay McDaniels Minnesota’s been terrific at home Five and one here at the target center in the playoffs Williams tosses up a wild shot Ball deflected Connley using the screen Gets a good clean look in and out Arinstein the rebound Oh Shay Gildus Alexander hearing the Bulls Only 14 points He had been on one sensational run Got a streak of 34 games end at five Misses that shot Rebound and Homegrren Homegrren goes inside off the glass That shot goes up Offensive rebounding is a lot easier for Chad Homegrren in that spot Williams very physical right there on Randle pokes it away Randle gets it back He’s double team Hartstein knocked it lar hands off Connley Shot clock at six Mike Connley drills the three-pointer His presence is vital to this team And there’s just a calmness he brings Homegrren took a shot That won’t go Homegrren gets it back Hartenstein kept it alive Hartinstein kicks it out SGA Lou Dort is going to get a three-point look Rebound out to Hartinstein again Jaylen Williams fakes Dort chased off the three-point line and draws first team all NBA lead cuz Anthony Edwards is going to get his What I do notice is Dort is almost pressing up more tonight at times trying to deny him Look how close he is and how far That’s an illegal on a pump fake You got to keep your discipline early in this game I don’t understand how he argued that ball was Edwards off the turnover finds McDaniels McDaniels 10 points six boards and terrific defense in game three He’s got five points already Homegrren picks up his first foul Jaylen Williams lot of room and nails another three That’s his second three-pointer And Edwards you can’t shoot the gap on two screens Not against JDub That is not what you could do You can’t give him that much space McDaniels very aggressive offensively early but discouraged there by Homegrren Seven on the shot clock Dort How about these two guys going at it Randall spins kicks it out in the corner Connley has to heave it up and Dort the rebound That’s some strong defense from Lou Dort I don’t like Julius Randall at the top of the key versus Lou Dort versus Alex Caruso I like him in the block That’s harder to work up there Lou Dort again A clean look outside That one way off Ball knocked up Arinstein for Williams Williams inside Double team knocked away by McDaniels Picked up by Edwards [Music] Two turnovers early for OKC Randall hoist up a three Rudy Goar the rebound Edwards back to Connley Connley wide open corner three McDaniels in and out and in again McDaniels eight of the 13 points The spin move back out Dort A contested three Got it OKC with 14 points four and a half minutes in They had 14 points total in the first quarter of game three Connley misses but Goar right there Elvis Alexander already three assists Jump shot bounces around the soft touch Those are his first points [Applause] Edwards using the screen gets inside crossover kicks it out McDaniels good look Homegrren goes high for the rebound Dangerous pass but Williams able to catch it in traffic Oh we’ve seen that OKC defensive intensity to start this one Both teams so good defensively Kilus Alexander using the left hand Come on How game three one of the big differences was Rudy’s impact on those exact plays You see Shay no hesitation go right at him Randall threw it behind Edwards trying to hold on Dort comes up with it Sloppy possession that time Second turnover for Minnesota Hartstein not looking at the [Applause] basket Jaylen Williams head down Kicks it out Homegrren Homegrren inside Blocked by Goar What a rejection from Rudy Goar McDaniels down the lane Layup is good Timeout [Applause] OKC Edwards guarding Williams Williams drives Left-handed Oh nice soft touch underhanded off the glass Holy smokes That’s with your off hand from that distance Williams has 10 McDaniels with 10 [Music] Gord good ball denial on Edwards Edwards trying to get on track His first shot Caruso right there The green The ball knocked loose McDaniels couldn’t get it Day of the week That’s a typical Lud Door play Nas Reed in the game Lost the dribble Good physical defense from Jaylen Williams At least in the early moments they are really letting them play here to start Dven Chenzo guarding SGA sneaks inside layup Bang shot good with three Minnesota players around him You can’t have that if you’re Minnesota You cannot have two guys come over and just a simple split You got to get body to body and close off that lane Randle thought he was fouled Caruso knocked it loose There’s so many deflections Great hands I’ve heard other coaches talk about it Unless it’s going to take one of my guys out of the game I’m going to save it for later Or take points off the board Kendrick Williams getting some minutes again with the deflection Another forced turnover Game three was the first time in the entire playoffs that OKC’s opponent had less turnovers than they did Gildas Alexander nice spin move jumpers Good Well that was their fifth turnover and a couple more points off that And Sheay you allowed him to dance to the absolute sweet spot for him 14 to 15 ft That is his area Well the Thunder weather that early storm again The crowd just crazed to begin Naz Reed gets a CR The effortless long distance shot from Naz Reed He’s got unlimited range but had not been shooting the three ball well Played much better in game three Williams answers right back Jaylen Williams is three for three from long range Better start closing that space DB Evenenzo can’t get it to go That space was not available in game three Williams to SGA Caruso Venzo trying to stay in front Williams again A lot of space Can’t get that one to go Lou on Anthony Edwards holding him to just two points Fiveman defense but good pressure He’s been in his pocket the whole time Thanks for your time All right Lisa Laruso misses a three Terrence Shannon Jr getting some early minutes once again He’s become the ninth man in the rotation Was terrific in game three He’s become a crowd favorite rather quickly Stolen by Williams A telegraph pass And Jaylen Williams now with 15 points here in the first half Eight turnovers eight points off This is who OKC is You are helping them to score Naz Reed drives inside reverse and rolls in What a shot from Reed He had a seven-footer right around him That was a big on big screen too Jaylen Williams feeling it Not that time though Reed snatches the rebound Alexander Walker stripped inbounding Shannon not shy Played very well Very aggressive Randall against Caruso Triple team gets it out Five on the 24 Johnson can’t hit Randle couldn’t grab it The ball touches the paint It is like sharks in the water folks They want to take that away His first priority Fake the three now Drives inside the slam His second field goal Lead back up to nine equaling the largest lead of the first half [Applause] Shannon Dandle Alexander Walker connects Boy he’s had some really good minutes in this series now Six of 12 from three-point range That’s what’s keeping him close despite all the turnovers Minnesota only down by six now Jaylen Williams likes his mismatch against Connley Blocked by Connley Williams gets it back Five on the 24 Kicks it out Wallace the fake now fires three-pointer That won’t go Shannon boxing out Homer That was one tough physical defensive sequence Shannon drives and finishes Hungren fakes Little out of control Got it back Hangs on Flips it up Count it Shannon again the drive and draws Boy they got something in him It’s tough on a veteran team He says “I’ll wait my turn.” But when his turn comes he [Applause] produces Isaiah Joe and Hartenstein Isaiah Joe nice move and finish in first couple of years with the Sixers Misses the free throw Ball batted out Hartstein for a lot of those Wallace goes inside kicks it out Williams fires and hits Henri Williams again some good minutes to lead right back up to nine Connley to Reed Naz Reed kicks it out Shannon wide open Puts it in He’s doing it again Seven points in three minutes off the bench Williams alley up to Hartinstein [Applause] Jaylen Williams doing a little bit of everything for his team That’s the norm Shannon deflected and stolen Wallace knocked away from behind Alexander Walker ahead of the pack guarded left-handed Beautiful move from Alexander Walker off the turnover Well what a group this has been for Minnesota The pace they’re playing with the ability to get downhill Jaylen Williams pulls up Jump shot short Hartinstein Another rebound Yay So much of that is grab the offensive rebound throw it out for an open three There’s Edwards being harassed by Dort Dvenzo off the bounce Shannon guarded by SGA Poked away There was some contact there He’ll just Alexander Dude Dort inside pass deflected and even Junzo picks it up Five turnovers for OKC 10 for Minnesota Such tenacity on the defensive end from both teams Goar down low with Wallace He has taken five so far here in the first half If you want to throw the promo me and Doris we call the games Everybody free promo there for NBA 2K [Applause] Kendrick Williams the rebound as Rudy Goar misses a pair of free throws Six-point lead for OKC Back to the zone with Rudy to Richard’s point at the high point of it Kase Wallace an open three Got it And that’s the eighth three-point team shooting extremely well Thunder 57% from the field and Minnesota 65% but they trail by nine again the turnovers Edwards gets it Edwards down the
