This rare encounter because we believe that it is the best definition that can be given to it began with a Draymond basket that from the beginning showed that its level of intensity was high and that it wanted to take the victory as it would give rise to Minnesota. At that time the game plan was clear, triple for the Golden State Warriors and internal game for Minnesota. In fact, the game in the painting ended the first quarter with a marker of 14 – 4 for the Wolves.
With all this, the first quarter ended up being favorable for Golden State Warriors by score of 20 – 18. At the beginning of the actions of the second quarter, the rhythm of the match remained slow and something came that altered the course of the game, Stephen Curry came out with an apparent lesion in the tendon of the Corva and would not return more to the match. This served for Draymond to stand as one of the heroes of the first half with 4 – 5 in triples and 14 points.
Minnesota, meanwhile, saw Naz Reid go out after a strong shock and was feared that a large part of the game would be lost, but eventually returned to the stall.
