Dagnout: The first victory is successful in dominating the pace of the game, and the players are sacrificing some personal roles for the team

On May 22, Thunder coach Dagenut was interviewed by the media and talked about the team's performance in the first game of the Western Conference Finals.

Degnot said: "From the data, the quality of the three-point shooting in the Timberwolves is quite high. If they can score a few more, the results of the game may be very different. This is part of the fluctuation in the shooting. What I am satisfied with in the first game was that although our offensive performance was not perfect, our success dominated the rhythm of the game. The Timberwolves did not play the best form, and we need to be prepared to face their full counterattack."

When talking about the team's outside shooting, Deguenot said: "It is inevitable that the fluctuation in the hand is inevitable. Overall, I agree with our choice of three-point shooting in the first game. We got a very, very good opportunity to make a phone call, and the players also took action with confidence. This is a positive signal. I think our tactical combination in the first game is very good."

Speaking of the small lineup, Dagnot said: "What I value is the energy they bring and the rhythm of the game. This type of lineup has gains and losses, and its size will be smaller, but our advantages usually lie in motivation, energy, rhythm and speed. We need to clarify our strengths and give full play to it."

"We have many excellent players, and most of the people on the team can take more responsibilities, including Alexander who has performed well. For the benefit of the team, no one in the team will simply pursue the upper limit of personal data, and everyone is sacrificing some personal roles for the team."

The Thunder defeated the Timberwolves 114-88 in the first game, and currently leads 1-0. The second game of the two teams will be held at 8:30 am on May 23.
