As time passed, the next game of the Western Conference Finals came again.

The Timberwolves all shifted positions this time, and they flew to the Moda Center, the home of the Portlanders.

The Trail Blazers, who returned to the home court, obviously gained a lot of confidence. This is their territory, and they are of course more confident that they can recover their previous defeat.

This time the Trail Blazers fans were also very supportive. Before the game, many people crowded and waited at the entrance of the arena. Even though many people did not buy tickets, they all chose to help the team under the big screen outside the arena.

A city team in a remote area like Minneapolis has a completely different basketball atmosphere from Portland.

Portland is an important city in the northwest of the United States, especially after the Seattle team is gone, it has become the largest city in the northwest of the NBA territory, and the Nike headquarters is located here, which makes the basketball culture of the city quite different.

Therefore, after the Timberwolves entered the away game, they were also surprised by the opponent's city atmosphere.

However, this did not affect the performance of the players.

The Trail Blazers played well in the first half of this game.

Cj. McCollum, who had been silent for two games before, finally showed his performance. He entered the basket one after another and succeeded in breaking through, and he continued to respond with three-pointers.

Lillard also played very stable. He did not rush to attack in the first quarter, but kept looking for his personal status. After finding that McCollum had a good hand, he also actively passed the ball to McCollum.

In the second quarter, Lillard finally got his touch.

He shot from outside the three-point line one after another. Even though Zhao Feiyang had been keeping one-on-one guard, Lillard still threw three three-pointers under the interference of this intensity.

At the end of the first half, he scored 16 points and 9 assists.

Compared with the performance of the Trail Blazers, the Timberwolves were quite "unacceptable" in the first half. Zhao Feiyang didn't feel good. Especially in the first quarter, he only scored 6 out of 2 shots. The ball was not scored even once.

After head coach Norman Thomas noticed his state, he also chose to replace him to rest, and Kevin Martin went up to cooperate with Zach LaVine.

Martin still played steadily, making 4 of 2 three-pointers, and also broke into the basket and scored two layups.

LaVine didn't score much before. After switching to McCollum, he has been restricting the opponent and didn't put more energy on offense.

In this game, he finally found a little feeling. He seized several opportunities on the court to break into the opponent to win, and scored double digits with his own breakthroughs and dunks.

The best performer was Dwight Howard.

After the Trail Blazers were completely unable to pose a threat to himself, Howard continued to attack the basket in the interior. A three-pointer.

Intermission time passed quickly.

After the second half, Zhao Feiyang made his debut again.

In the third quarter, Lillard and Zhao Feiyang continued to seek opportunities for confrontation. The two used various scoring methods and constantly seized one-on-one opportunities to compete against each other.

Unfortunately, at the last moment of the match, Zhao Feiyang still had the upper hand.
