Live Broadcast Bar, May 21 News Yesterday, Timberwolves eliminated Nuggets in the Western Conference semifinal tiebreaker with the largest reversal in history and entered the Western Conference finals.
After the game, ESPN reporter Dave McCenamin wrote an article revealing some past events between the Nuggets and Timberwolves.
13 months ago, in the first round of the 2023 playoffs, the Nuggets (1) eliminated the Timberwolves (8) 4-1. Since he didn't return to Minneapolis until the next day, Edwards and several teammates went to a "Forget Me Not" bar in the Cherry Creek neighborhood a few miles away from the arena for a drink after Game 5. And Jamal Murray, who scored 35 points in G5, happened to walk into this bar.
Yesterday, after eliminating the Nuggets, Edwards told espn: "Murray was talking trash at the time. He kept saying to Conley Sr.: 'I'm annoying you to death, you can't guard me.' Things like that."
"And I told him, we will get back on the field. When our lineup is complete (note: Jaden and Reid were injured), you will see us again." Hua Zi said.
Huazi fulfilled his promise. The Timberwolves fell behind by as many as 20 points in the third quarter yesterday. But they fought back strongly, completing the biggest tiebreaker reversal in history and defeating the defending champion.
"That's our strength. Once we put our best foot forward on defense, we're a tough team to beat." Edwards said after yesterday's win.
