Dallas Mavericks Broke the Timberwolves With Lob-Heavy Offense…
If this year’s playoffs have taught the NBA world anything, it is that home court advantage has mattered little.
But the Dallas Mavericks taking the first two games of the Western Conference Finals on the road, and now returning home to Texas with a 2-0 series lead, certainly helps their chances.
The 2024 Western Conference Finals marked the second consecutive time that the Minnesota Timberwolves dropped both home games to begin a series.
In the second round, they lost Games 3 and 4 at home against the then-defending champions Denver Nuggets, but would go on to win the series.
But now, the T’Wolves find themselves in an 0-2 deficit for the first time after dropping Games 1 and 2 to the Mavericks.
Luka Dončić, Kyrie Irving and crew arrived in Minnesota and took care of business, thanks to their lob-heavy offense that the T’Wolves simply failed to contain.
