Alexander said after the match that G4 either wins or loses

The Timberwolves returned to home to usher in the third game of the Western Conference Finals series. Previously, the Thunder defeated the Timberwolves two consecutive games, which made fans think that the series had lost suspense. However, when they returned to the Timberwolves' first game, they beat their opponents. After only half a quarter of the game, the Timberwolves took a double-digit lead, and then the game was gradually lost. The Thunder series lost 42 points in the first away game. The team's core Alexander performed sluggishly in the entire game, especially the offensive end was firmly limited. The data of only 4 of 13 shots in the game was 14 points, 2 rebounds and 6 assists was in sharp contrast to the previous two games.

After the game, Alexander was interviewed by the media. When talking about the next G4, he said: We were beaten to no avail in this game. Next, we either cheer up and win the game, or continue to fall and lose again. In addition, when talking about his opponent's Timberwolves' performance in this game, Alexander said: This loss is because we don't have a sense of urgency. The opponent knows what the consequences will be when facing a 0-3-delay situation, so they have a very urgency from the beginning.

Alexander's biggest difference compared to the previous two games was his performance at the free throw line. Alexander only had 4 free throws in total in G3, which is in sharp contrast to the previous two games. On the one hand, Alexander's playing time in G3 was not the first time. His enthusiasm for attacking the basket on the court and his determination to cause damage were not as good as in the previous two games. When Alexander was restricted by the Timberwolves, the Thunder seemed to lose his brain, and the loss became natural.

As the regular season MVP of this season, it is rare for Alexander to play like this. The next game will be played at the Timberwolves. If Alexander continues to be sluggish, the Timberwolves will tie the big score. The 2:2 situation comes to Tianwang Mountain. Even if the Thunder are at home, it will put a lot of pressure on them after losing two consecutive games. Therefore, G4 is a game with a great impact on both sides. Whether Alexander can regain the state of the first two games is destined to the trend of the G4. As he said, the next one will either win or lose. If you want to win, the Thunder will need the whole team to get out of the sluggish performance.
