In the middle of several Lakers, the interior of the Wolves ended up scoring under the circle, with an opposing fault. And showed his muscles, literally as figuratively.<\/p>\n<p>This action at the start of the second period allowed his team to resume more than 20 points ahead of the Californian prosecution. Above all, it illustrates part of what made the difference in this first round: the physical dimension.<\/p>\n<p>\u00ab<em> It is not to say that our guys were not ready to face the intensity of the playoffs. We were mentally ready, and I think our state of mind was good. I&#39;m not sure we were physically ready, if it makes sense.
