“What Anthony Edwards has taken those guys and done is absolutely amazing,” Green said, via The Draymond Green Show. “Like Rudy’s actually not trash anymore. A lot of people agree, he defends now… But I mean like when you see him on the switches he’s up at the level, he’s not just sitting back at the drop anymore. When he gets switched on to the guy, it’s like his antennas pop on, like oh I got to sit down they’re about to go at me and guard them. “I think it’s been interesting to watch because he is actually impacting winning and he’s actually doing that on the defensive end where as opposed to other series he’s gotten played off the floor.”

Is the death of the super team good or bad for the Utah Jazz. I would say bad.
Suddenly it looks like the Donovan Mitchell trade may yield much more than the Rudy Gobert trade?

That last-second Gobert help defense on Beal led to a turnover and Conley 3 on the other end. – 11:42 PM

Anthony Edwards heating up here in the 3Q to join KAT. KD and Book keeping pace on the other end. Would be more fun for Suns fans if this wasn’t an elimination Game 4 – 11:17 PM

Back-to-back 3s from Anthony Edwards has this game tied at 66, then a wide open dunk for McDaniels gives the Wolves the lead. Minnesota starts the 3Q on a 12-5 run and the Suns are approaching that 3Q danger zone already – 11:12 PM

Draymond Green deja de sentir envidia y ahora toma nota de las artimañas de Joel Embiid.
Anote 50 puntos en un partido o un solo punto en un último cuarto, nada de esto es necesario o genera ventajas.

Booker accomplished three things on that airborne contest of Anthony Edwards
1. Prevented the finish.
2. Didn’t get dunk on.
3. Edwards split the two FTs.

Beal 3 after defending Gobert in the lane with Nurkic coming over to help.
Seeing some different defensive strategies in terms of the help coverages.
Then Towns gets a corner 3. #Suns up two. – 10:42 PM

Good minutes for the Wolves bigs. KAT with a nice drive and postup. Gobert with a nice backdoor feed out of the post to NAW for an and-1. – 10:19 PM

I would assume, or I think it would be wise, for the Suns to lean into offensive structure in Game 4, and if they do that with the small ball look, I think this has been their best structure — Booker back-screening Gobert in Spain action.

Most playoff wins among active NBA players:
1. LeBron: 182
2. Klay: 108
3. Draymond: 107
4. Durant: 101
5. Steph: 99
6. Kawhi: 87
7. Harden: 86
It’s possible/probable that all 7 of those players will be out of the playoffs by next week.

“He is a good person,” said Minnesota assistant coach Micah Nori, who filled in for coach Chris Finch after a collision on the sideline in the fourth quarter left him with a serious leg injury. “And what I mean by that is, they trust him. He’s got some self-humor. You’ve seen all of his interviews. He’s the first one to congratulate and move all of his glory over to his teammates. They all love him. -via The Athletic / April 29, 2024
He did it with leadership. He did it with WWE “Suck It!” extracurriculars. He did it while giving an earful to the player he has looked up to since he was five years old. These are the things that make stars. This is what stardom looks like. “Nah, not yet, man,” Edwards said Sunday after reaching the benchmark he placed on himself a year ago. “Not yet.” -via The Athletic / April 29, 2024
Christopher Hine: Anthony Edwards said his relationship with Chris Finch took a while to develop. It didn’t happen overnight. “Probably the end of my second year, going into those playoffs, we gained each other’s trust. We took off ever since then.” -via Twitter @ChristopherHine / April 29, 2024
