May 1st news: G5 in the first round of the NBA playoffs continued, the Timberwolves defeated the Lakers 103-96 away, and advanced to the Western Conference semi-finals 4-1.
Last season, the Timberwolves swept the Suns led by the Big Three 4-0 in the first round, and reversed the defending champion Nuggets led by Jokic 4-3 in the second round, but lost to the Mavericks in the Western Conference Finals. This season, the Timberwolves, ranked 6th in the Western Conference, eliminated the Lakers led by James and Doncic 4-1 in the first round when they were not optimistic. For two consecutive seasons, Edwards led the team to send the four superstars Durant, Jokic, James and Doncic home.
Randle continued his efficient performance in this game, making 8 of 16 shots, 6 of 7 free throws, scoring 23 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists, and three of four free throws in the last moment killed the game. Randle's performance throughout the series was very stable. Except for the first game, he scored 16 points, scored 20+ in the other four games, averaging 22.5 points, 5 rebounds and 4.4 assists per game, and made a tough performance against his old main.
With the Lakers being eliminated, the shocking trade in the middle of the season was discussed by fans again. Judging from the final results of the season alone, this deal did not achieve a win-win effect. The Lakers were eliminated 1-4 in the first round and encountered a first round. The Mavericks stopped in the playoffs and failed to enter the playoffs. Last season, the Mavericks reached the finals.
