Funny, Edwards old remarks: I want to play the Warriors in the playoffs, I want to beat them, Green speaks dirty

Minnesota Timberwolves and Golden State Warriors will meet in the second round of the playoffs, and this game should be very exciting. The Timberwolves eliminated the Los Angeles Lakers in the first round, and many people were surprised that they actually completed the reversal in five games. Anthony Edwards and the Timberwolves will now head to the Warriors, who have never met Stephen Curry in the playoffs before.

A few years ago, when Edwards was asked what he expected about that season, he revealed in an interview that the Timberwolves would play the game against the Lakers.

"I want to play against the Warriors (in the playoffs) ... I want to beat them wherever they are," Edwards said in a republic interview.

Ant: "I want to play against the Warriors (in the playoffs)...I want to beat them wherever they are."

"Why the Warriors?"

Ant: "Because Draymond [Green] said so much swearing."

Edwards was then asked why he particularly wanted to play against the Warriors.

"Because Draymond said so many swear words. That's almost the only reason," Edwards said.

Draymond Green is indeed very swearing, but so is Edwards, which is one of the reasons why this game may be exciting. Green and Rudy Gobert also have some intersections, and everyone will be curious about how the two of them stay calm in the fierce competition. The Timberwolves strive to beat the Warriors in the second round in the past few seasons, the Timberwolves have been one of the most anticipated teams in the league, and their performance in the playoffs has also been impressive. Last season, they beat the Phoenix Suns led by Kevin Durant in the first round and the Denver Nuggets led by Nikola Jokic in the second round. Unfortunately, in the Western Conference Finals, the Dallas Mavericks are too strong for them.

This year, the Timberwolves have beaten strong teams like Luca Doncic and LeBron James and are working hard to beat the Warriors. The Timberwolves have created many advantages on the court with their physical fitness and athletic talent, which is hard for the Warriors to beat.

The Warriors beat the Timberwolves three times in the regular season, but in the playoffs, none of these became irrelevant. Despite their extensive postseason experience, the Timberwolves also have talent, and this series may end up playing six or seven games. Edwards and the Timberwolves will be well prepared for any challenges in the next round.
