Finally, the Wolves managed to win. They had fewer field goal attempts but made more than the Mavs. However, they need to improve their free throws; they are really bad at it. They only managed to make 16 out of 25. Although they have managed to extend the series, they still need to win three in a row to reach their first NBA Finals. That's kind of hard to do against the Mavs unless they show what they did in the first and second rounds of the playoffs. Then, they do have a chance, but currently, I'm not very optimistic.
Still to far from the reality of beating the Mavs. As what was showed in the screen when I watch the game, there are only 4 teams in the history of NBA that went to game 7 from 0-3 deficit, but of course, no team had succeeded to win yet, but let's see if they'll make a history, they just need to win one game at a time.
They'll have to go through the needle's hole to get their, but it's not impossible though. The win probably gave them the confidence necessary to win another game, and since game 5 will be back on their home court, I think they'll be so eager to play well to get another win. It's hard to beat the history, as although the Wolves were the better team from the start, it's still hard to trust that they can make it.
The loss of Lively was really huge, but it was a close game actually until KAT can't miss on the outside, if he play like that in game 5, then there's a likelihood that the series will be extended in 6 or even in 7.
He was on the bench, I think he is fine though, he was just given the necessary rest and expect his availability in game 5 as they can't allow to make this series 3-2, that's already too risky for them.
