I'm not sure if Minnesota's crowd even knows why they're booing Shai.

I SEE YA CH3T

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is starting tonight more with a table setting approach.

He’s the only Thunder start to not record a shot attempt yet.

— Michael Martin (@MichaelOnSports) May 25, 2025

Minnesota doing everything they can to keep OKC out of the paint. Thunder can’t settle for outside shots.

— THE UNCONTESTED PODCAST (@The_Uncontested) May 25, 2025

can we crack 10 points this quarter thats the real question

— (@homahoops) May 25, 2025

Wolves still aren't sending two to the ball on SGA, but they are giving wayyyy more gap help

— Dane Moore (@DaneMooreNBA) May 25, 2025

OH! RUDY! He didn't lose the ball! AND he dunked!

— Hardwood Paroxysm (@HPbasketball) May 25, 2025

End 1Q: Wolves 34, Thunder 14

Interesting three quarters ahead.

— Derek Parker (@DParkOK) May 25, 2025

Dub showing aggression driving to the basket. Feels like the only pathway back in to this one.

Need the defense to tighten up too for that to happen.

— THE UNCONTESTED PODCAST (@The_Uncontested) May 25, 2025

Minnesota has the largest lead of either team in this series (25), as Terrance Shannon scores the first 5 points of the second quarter.

— Daily Thunder (@dailythunder) May 25, 2025

The kind of night it is for OKC so far:

Terrence Shannon Jr has out scored every Thunder player.

He’s got 9 points in 3 minutes.

— Brandon Rahbar (@BrandonRahbar) May 25, 2025

Thunder came back from 29 down in Memphis. But, that took a Ja Morant injury and near-perfection in the 2nd half.

— Matt Ravis (@mattravis) May 25, 2025

Wolves are winning basically every single statistical category tonight. Think it started on the defensive end, doing a better job of forcing turnovers + running but the shooting has been the knockout punch

— Esfandiar Baraheni (@JustEsBaraheni) May 25, 2025

I can’t remember the last shot at the rim the Thunder got.

Was it that Hartenstein with the and-1?

— Michael Martin (@MichaelOnSports) May 25, 2025

The Thunder's 30-point deficit to the Timberwolves is the largest of their playoffs so far

— Clemente Almanza (@CAlmanza1007) May 25, 2025

Ant set the tone early for the Wolves and everyone followed.

— The Daniel Bell© (@BasketballGuruD) May 25, 2025

Thunder start losing and fans are back to thinking they know better than Mark.

I love sports, man. I really do.

— Travis J Davidson (@TravisSkol) May 25, 2025

Complete dominance for the Wolves in half one of Game 3,

They lead, 72-41. Wolves shot better overall and from three, had more rebounds, assists, steals, fast-break points, points in the paint — less turnovers and fouls.

alright so

to pull this off i think they have to have the lead cut to 12 with nine minutes left at worse https://t.co/HGnDPRi6hM

— Kegan Reneau (@KeganReneau) May 25, 2025

McDaniels drains a three out of the Timberwolves timeout. Man, MIN still shooting over 52% from the floor & 10/22 from deep

— Josue Pavón (@Joe_Sway) May 25, 2025

Countered by a 12-2 Timberwolves run. https://t.co/wT8LAlWWtM

— Addam M. Francisco (@SuaveCEO_) May 25, 2025

Minnesota is having a night (up 38 points), can't miss. 13-25 from deep and this one is pretty much over. OKC had a 11-2 run, then Minnesota responds with a 20-4 run. Ouch!

The Wolves are up how much?!?

— Matt (@sixringsofsteeI) May 25, 2025

Mark burns another timeout. We can wrap this up. Time to clear the bench

— The Daniel Bell© (@BasketballGuruD) May 25, 2025

Yeah this is just one of those games

All good on to game four

— (@Three_Cone) May 25, 2025

Shai Dub and Chet are on the bench after that timeout. Hard to believe they’ll be back in this game with the Thunder down 41

— Basketball Poetry (@bballispoetry) May 25, 2025

Wolves not done kicking the Thunder while they're down. Randle, Naz, NAW, White Donte, and Shannon starting the 4th lol I respect it cause I'm always pro run it up

Gotta give it up to Chris Finch, the Terrence Shannon Jr. button was a perfect one to push

This TSJ performance today...

— Mohamed (@mcfdraft) May 25, 2025

I think the good news for the Thunder is you can chalk this has a bad night and burn the tape.
