Oklahoma zvládla úvodní finále Západní konference NBA, zářil nejlepší střelec soutěže
Gilgeous-Alexander byl hlavní postavou klíčového druhého poločasu, v němž nejlepší tým základní části deklasoval soupeře 70:40. Kanadský střelec dal 20 bodů, když proměnil osm ze 14 pokusů. V celém zápase trefil 10 z 27 střel. Jalen Williams přispěl k vítězství 19 body, 15 bodů dal Chet Holmgren.„Kvůli těmhle zápasům hrajete a žijete. Je to pro nás dlouhá a zábavná sezona a rozhodně nechceme, aby nám skončila,“ řekl Williams. Thunder nastoupili jen dva dny poté, co vyřadili Denver, přesto měli více sil než Wolves, kteří nehráli zápas od 14. května. „Chceme, aby každý z kluků uspěl, v týmu není žádné ego. Proto je tak jedinečný,“ řekl pivot Isaiah Hartenstein.Randle zůstal v týmu Minnesoty se svým výkonem osamocen. Anthony Edwards zaznamenal 18 bodů a devět doskoků a zaostal za svým dosavadním průměrem v play off (26,5 bodu). Nikdo další se nedostal přes devět bodů. Minnesota vystřelila 51 trojek a proměnila jich 15. Domácí měli bilanci 11 trojek z 21 pokusů.Thunder vyhráli první utkání ve finále konference od roku 2016, kdy podlehli […]
Chet Holmgren and the Thunder’s smaller depth engulf Timberwolves in Game 1 win
OKLAHOMA CITY — The Oklahoma City Thunder won Game 1 by 26 points, but only led by seven when the clock ticked below 11 minutes in the fourth quarter. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, the presumed MVP, spent the first three minutes on the bench. Julius Randle, the hottest first-half player in the building, was on the floor.AdvertisementIf ever there was a time for the Minnesota Timberwolves to threaten late in the Western Conference finals opener, this felt like the pivotal stretch to attack.Among this ascending Thunder core, third-year center Chet Holmgren is the highest draft pick. He went second overall in 2022, a big ticket item, but has missed 132 combined games in his three seasons, forcing Holmgren to reform as a high-value role player and jump on the runaway 68-win train while in motion.“It’s gone under the radar a little bit […]
Timberwolves vs. Thunder: OKC’s secret sauce in Game 1 rout? Forcing Minnesota into a trap of its own making
OKLAHOMA CITY — It’s almost cruel how the Oklahoma City Thunder lull teams into a false confidence before recalibrating the game, turning it on its head and delivering blow after knockout blow.The Thunder, as precocious as they are, seduce you into believing the game is played on your terms. And before you know it, you’re a ball of frustration — realizing that summer vacation is approaching with every loss.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementThat seduction was evident Tuesday in Game 1 of the Western Conference finals, as it very much felt like the Minnesota Timberwolves had a good feel for their opponent, even though the two hadn’t seen each other since February.It felt like the Thunder were going to have trouble getting secondary scoring outside of Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, that he would struggle against Minnesota’s aggressive perimeter defense, and, finally, they’d have no answer for the […]
Wolves have a big job ahead of them this summer – and Vitor Pereira knows it
If Vitor Pereira was ever in doubt about the scale of the task he still faces at Wolverhampton Wanderers, those doubts have been erased.The look of annoyance on the face of the Wolves head coach at Selhurst Park last night after a third successive defeat was that of a man who had already moved on from the joy of keeping his side in the Premier League for another season.AdvertisementPereira used last night’s penultimate game of the season to test what he has in the parts of his squad below the players who carried his side to safety. The answer he received was fairly emphatic — and not good.“Of course, we need players,” Pereira said when asked about his needs for the summer. “We need to be stronger next season, competing for every game. What I learned is that with this […]
Tottenham vs Manchester United live updates: Europa League final predictions, team news and latest score

Pep: I’ll quit if Man City squad gets too large
Pep Guardiola has claimed he would quit as Manchester City boss if he is given too big a squad next season because he cannot bear to leave a large number of fit players out.City will go into the summer looking to rebuild an ageing team, with several senior players candidates to follow Kevin De Bruyne out of the door after the Belgian played his final City home game in Tuesday's 3-1 win over Bournemouth. However, Abdukodir Khusanov, Savinho, James McAtee, Claudio Echeverri and Rico Lewis all missed out on the 20-player matchday squadAfter a season when injuries have hit City hard, getting the right balance of numbers looks a difficult one, but Guardiola - who has always preferred using a smaller group - said keeping things tight remains a priority for him."I said to the club I don't want that […]
