Edwards is only 19+6 and cannot stop it from being eliminated! Positive and negative value - 29 worst, Western Conference Finals 3-pointers made 11 of 39 points and was criticized for being severely c

On May 29, the NBA playoffs continued. In today's Western Conference Finals G5, the Timberwolves lost to the Thunder away, thus being eliminated with a total score of 1-4, and the journey of this season ended.

As the team's star, Edwards' performance today is worth discussing. In the whole game, Edwards started for 39 minutes, made 7 of 18 shots, including 1 of 7 three-pointers and 4 of 6 free throws, scoring a total of 19 points, 6 rebounds, 2 assists and 1 block. There was a turnover, with a positive and negative value of -29 the lowest in the team!

It should be noted that the Timberwolves fell into a full lag since the beginning of the game, and Edwards did not make any more contributions. He scored 6 points in 2 of 5 in the first quarter, and only 1 of 5 in the second quarter scored only 3 points. The Timberwolves lagged behind at most as much as 37 points. It was not until the third quarter that Edwards regained his touch and scored 10 points in 4 of 7 shots in a single quarter, but facing the huge gap, Edwards was powerless. In the final quarter, Edwards' performance was not impressive enough, because the score difference was large, he was replaced early.

According to statistics, not counting today's game, Edwards averaged 27.6 points, 7.1 rebounds, 6.1 assists, 1.4 steals and 1.1 blocks per game in the game. Obviously, his performance today was not very good, and his overall record in his life and death battles became 4 wins and 4 losses.

In response to this, the famous commentator Skip couldn't help but squirt during the game. He said: "Why can Edwards escape criticism? He hit 40% of his three-point shooting percentage in the regular season, ranking first in the league in both hits and shots. But in the four losses against the Western Conference Finals against the Thunder (including this game), he made only 5 of his three-pointers and shots, with a shooting percentage of only 17.2%! He made 0 of 5 shots in the first half, and there were two straight shots that didn't even touch the frame. But ESPN seems to have not noticed this yet!"

According to post-match statistics, Edwards' total three-pointers in this Western Conference Finals this year were 11 of 39. As the player who hits the most three-pointers in the regular season, it is obvious that such an outside performance is unqualified.

At this point, Edwards' fifth season of his career came to an end. He was selected for the All-Star lineup for the third time this season and the second best team, leading the Timberwolves to the 6th in the Western Conference. The gentleman swept the Lakers 4-1 in the first round, eliminated the Warriors 4-1 in the semi-finals, and reached the Western Conference Finals for two consecutive years. At the same time, Edwards was swept by his opponent 4-1 gentleman in the Western Conference Finals for two consecutive years.
