I thought Memphis would play Steven Adams this game because of his screening that gets Ja downhill
What Memphis is doing instead is bringing both of their bigs up to set screens on both the left and right, and Ja is taking the path of least resistance. – 9:51 PM

When was the last time Morant used a highway screen for an easy layup? Or for an early butt screen for an uncontested bucket? In other words, Steven Adams specialties. I agree with @SethPartnow and his tweet last week, not playing Adams was and is a mistake. They r not the same. – 9:22 PM

Asked about Steven Adams role in Game 5, Taylor Jenkins played coy about what that role would be.
My theory is that we will see Adams in this game, not only for offensive rebounding purposes but also to get Ja Morant going downhill with his screening ability. – 5:57 PM

Before Game 5, I wrote about how important it is for the Timberwolves to rebound well if they want to win, and how Steven Adams being off the floor makes Memphis at least a little weaker at the thing it does best in the league. startribune.com/timberwolves-g… – 12:38 PM
