Can t score, can t organize, can t defend, the Timberwolves veteran in the backcourt is really bad

In the previous NBA Western Conference Finals, the Oklahoma City Thunder defeated the Minnesota Timberwolves 14-88. After this game, the Thunder took the lead, achieved a good start in the series, and temporarily led the opponent 1-0 in the total score.

In this game, the Timberwolves' starting point guard Mike Conley still performed very badly. Conley played 22 minutes and 53 seconds in the whole game, made 2 of 8 shots, 1 of 5 shots from outside the three-point line, and 2 of 2 free throws, scoring 7 points, 3 rebounds and 3 assists, and 1 foul, with a plus-minus value of +5. Conley still has a poor feel on the offensive end, and he has also received a lot of opportunities for mobile phones, but his offensive efficiency is still unsatisfactory, and he still has no way to provide more support to the team on the offensive end. Conley's performance on the defensive end is also very bad. He is even often picked up and beaten by his opponents, and his problems with movement speed and defensive focus are also visible to the naked eye. Conley should have assumed more responsibility on the court as the team's starting point guard, but his performance in scoring, organization and defense is not very ideal, which has also led to his very limited playing time. The team's defeat is also closely related to his poor form.

In the NBA regular season this season, Conley played 71 games in 82 games, averaging 24.7 minutes per game, averaging 8.2 points, 2.6 rebounds, 4.5 assists, 1.1 steals and 0.2 blocks, and 1.1 turnovers and 1.6 fouls. He shot 40% from the field, 41% from three-point shooting percentage and 90% from free throws. In the playoffs, Conley averaged 24/2 minutes in the first 11 games, with averaging 6.8 points, 3.3 rebounds, 3.7 assists, 0.5 steals and 0.1 blocks, 0.7 turnovers and 1.5 fouls, shooting percentage of 33.8%, three-point shooting percentage of 34.1%, and free throw shooting percentage of 92.3%.

Conley's performance during the playoffs was a cliff-like decline compared to the regular season. His offensive efficiency was a mess, his three-point shooting percentage was extremely unstable, his talent in passing and organization was also not shown, and his defensive effect was not satisfactory. Although the Timberwolves played triumphant songs all the way backed the Los Angeles Lakers and Golden State Warriors, Conley's performance was really bad. I thought Conley's outstanding performance in G5 against the Warriors series was a sign of his recovery in form, but in the Westpac G1, his form fell to the bottom again. As the team's starting point guard, if the state can only hover around this level, then we can basically be sure that the Timberwolves are out of the way.
