Key Points:
- Minnesota Timberwolves coach Chris Finch described the team's 133-95 loss to the San Antonio Spurs as getting "punked," reflecting the Spurs' dominant performance throughout the game.
- Anthony Edwards disagreed with the term "punked," but acknowledged the Timberwolves lacked urgency and physicality, emphasizing the need to learn from the game film and improve.
- The Spurs showcased balanced scoring and depth, with eight players scoring at least eight points and Victor Wembanyama contributing a double-double, leading to a significant rebounding advantage.
- Edwards, playing through a knee injury, came off the bench for the second consecutive game with limited minutes, scoring 12 points in 24 minutes, and indicated his playing time and starting status are not up to him.
- With the series tied 1-1, the Timberwolves may need Edwards to return to his regular-season form, where he averaged a career-high 28.8 points per game, to have a chance in upcoming games.
