A primary contribution to help their more physical team get an 18th victory over their last 22 games …
After a first quarter dominated by the Lakers, in the wake of an untenable Luka with its 16 points, the rocking point of this Game 1 occurred in the second, when the Wolves signed a terrible “run”: 26-6! In a 3-point and unstoppable fury on a fast game, visitors completely overturned the steam and took control with authority. Without ever letting go later, because it was ultimately the whole group of Minny who was in a big 3-point evening. It was also necessary to contain so containing, already in Playoff mode, but helpless against opposing collective power.

A part controlled by the men of Chris Finch, who send a series entry message and put pressure to the Californians for Game 2.
