Wolves: Ant leading with prove-'em wrong attitude
Briefly

The Minnesota Timberwolves are leading their playoff series against the Los Angeles Lakers 3-1, driven by star guard Anthony Edwards' exceptional play and motivation stemming from external doubts about their abilities. Coach Chris Finch highlighted Edwards' knack for rising to the moment, asserting that doubting him isn't wise. The Timberwolves, seen as underdogs, embrace their role and play with a chip on their shoulder, aiming to prove critics wrong as they approach a potential series win against a more favored opponent.
Our motivation has been from people doubting us outside of our team. Like Ant said, we weren't picked to win this thing. We weren't picked to do anything in the postseason.
I've been with him long enough to know that doubting him is not a really good strategy. He always wants to prove you wrong, and so sometimes he'll figure things out faster than you think he will.
