The 95-133 loss evened the series at one game apiece after the Timberwolves had secured a road victory in the opener.\n\nEdwards acknowledged the Spurs' dominant performance, noting that a 40-point margin of victory would naturally boost any team's confidence. He reflected on a common playoff pattern where a team that wins the first game on the road can sometimes struggle significantly in the follow-up contest. The guard stressed that such outcomes often stem from a lack of complete commitment from the opening tip.\n\nIn his post-game comments, Edwards pointed to specific areas needing improvement. He identified the team's shooting struggles as a primary factor in the lopsided result. According to Edwards, Minnesota's inability to convert enough shots allowed San Antonio to maintain their aggressive defensive schemes throughout the game.\n\nThe All-Star guard emphasized the importance of film study moving forward. He believes analyzing the Spurs' defensive strategies, particularly their double-team tactics, will reveal exploitable weaknesses. Edwards expressed confidence that improved shooting accuracy would force San Antonio to adjust their approach.\n\nEdwards conveyed his message to teammates after the game, reinforcing the need for consistent intensity. He highlighted how the team's shooting performance directly impacts the defensive pressure they face, suggesting that better offensive execution would create more favorable conditions.\n\nThe series now shifts back to Minnesota, where the Timberwolves will look to regain home-court advantage. Edwards' leadership and willingness to address the team's shortcomings publicly demonstrate his commitment to guiding the squad through playoff adversity.\n\nBased on reporting from Чемпионат.com.","news","Anthony Edwards discusses Minnesota's blowout loss to San Antonio in Game 2 of the NBA playoff series, emphasizing the need for better shooting and full effort from the start.","327826669714804737","0","2026-05-07T13:06:54Z","edwards-reflects-on-timberwolves-40-point-playoff-loss-to-spurs","Championat","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.championat.com\u002Fbasketball\u002Fnews-6459668-na-ih-meste-tozhe-poveril-by-v-sebya-edvards-o-razgrome-vo-vtoroj-igre-s-san-antonio.html","326257592445702144","San Antonio",[72,75,76,77,78,79,80,81],"326222707169431552","326222713142120448","326255038114566144","326255040400461824","326257539962376192","326257544227983360","326257600863670272",[73,83,84,85,86,87,88,89],"Anderlecht","Canada","Santa Clara","FC Santa Coloma","Como","Santos","Santa Fe","Edwards Reflects on Timberwolves' 40-Point Playoff Loss to Spurs",[92,106,117,128],{"awayTeamId":-1,"awayTeamName":-1,"body":-1,"category":64,"excerpt":93,"homeTeamId":-1,"homeTeamName":-1,"id":94,"leagueId":95,"leagueName":96,"matchId":67,"matchName":21,"publishedAt":97,"slug":98,"sourceName":99,"sourceURL":100,"teamId":72,"teamName":73,"teamIds":101,"teamNames":103,"title":105},"Jalen Brunson scored 30 as the Knicks erased a 14-point deficit to beat the Spurs 105-95 in Game 1, snapping their 6-0 Finals opener streak with an 11-0 run.","337875585936134145","326135625054949376","Premier League","2026-06-04T06:14:00Z","brunson-s-30-points-power-knicks-game-1-win-over-spurs","Sky Sports","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.skysports.com\u002Fbasketball\u002Fnews\u002F12040\u002F13550620\u002Fnba-finals-jalen-brunson-stars-as-new-york-knicks-beat-san-antonio-spurs-in-game-1",[72,102,75,76,77,78,79,80],"326257810885054464",[73,104,83,84,85,86,87,88],"York","Brunson's 30 Points Power Knicks' Game 1 Win Over Spurs",{"awayTeamId":-1,"awayTeamName":-1,"body":-1,"category":64,"excerpt":107,"homeTeamId":-1,"homeTeamName":-1,"id":108,"leagueId":95,"leagueName":96,"matchId":67,"matchName":21,"publishedAt":109,"slug":110,"sourceName":99,"sourceURL":111,"teamId":72,"teamName":73,"teamIds":112,"teamNames":114,"title":116},"Victor Wembanyama's 28 points, 10 rebounds and 3 blocks led the Spurs to a 118-91 Game 6 win over the Thunder, forcing a decisive Game 7 in the West Finals.","335693377863421953","2026-05-29T06:38:00Z","wembanyama-s-28-points-force-game-7-spurs-118-91-win","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.skysports.com\u002Fnba\u002Fnews\u002F12040\u002F13548937\u002Fsan-antonio-spurs-118-91-oklahoma-city-thunder-victor-wembanyama-leads-side-to-comfortable-win-in-sixth-game-and-send-series-to-decider",[72,113,102,75,77,78,79,80],"326222712773021696",[73,115,104,83,85,86,87,88],"Jordan","Wembanyama's 28 Points Force Game 7: Spurs 118-91 Win",{"awayTeamId":-1,"awayTeamName":-1,"body":-1,"category":64,"excerpt":118,"homeTeamId":-1,"homeTeamName":-1,"id":119,"leagueId":95,"leagueName":96,"matchId":67,"matchName":21,"publishedAt":120,"slug":121,"sourceName":99,"sourceURL":122,"teamId":72,"teamName":73,"teamIds":123,"teamNames":125,"title":127},"Wembanyama's 4-of-15 shooting for 20 points doomed the Spurs in a 127-114 Game 5 loss.
