Summary

Amin was in the building to see Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Jalen Williams, and Chet Holmgren combine for 95 points and lead the Thunder to a 128-126 Game 4 victory over the Timberwolves. Something about being right just feels so... right! Anthony Edwards and Julius Randle couldn't get their offense going. Is it a matter of aggression, or are they not being put in a position to succeed? Either way, the flop hurts a little extra when Naz Reid, Donte DiVincenzo, Nickeil Alexander-Walker, and the rest of the Minnesota roster played well enough to win. Plus, how to litigate fouling up 3, this week's Iciest Play, and a lesson in media literacy brought to you by ESPN and LeBron James. Learn more about your ad choices.
