The Golden State Warriors made a major statement in Wednesday night's Game 1 win over the Minnesota Timberwolves in the Western Conference Semifinals. In a game that saw Warriors star Stephen Curry exit early due to a hamstring injury, they still stayed in control, winning 99-88.

So too did NBA analyst Charles Barkley, who was also critical of Edwards’ performance. "The worst thing that ever happened to Anthony Edwards game was him becoming a good three point shooter,” Barkley said. Edwards was just 1-5 from 3-point range, and the Timberwolves scored just 88 points.

Minnesota's star is on a path of destruction of the league's icons. First was LeBron James, and now comes Steph Curry.
