    Dallas Mavericks news: Everything will be on the line for the Minnesota Timberwolves on Tuesday night as they look to stave off elimination in Game 4 of the Western Conference Finals. For their part, however, the Mavs enter this contest with a much more confident mindset after amassing a 3-0 lead in the series.

    Kyrie Irving knows how much pressure the Wolves will face on Tuesday night, and he’s sent them a stern reminder about the harsh reality they’re facing in this win-or-go-home contest.

    Dallas Mavericks News: Kyrie Irving’s Message for Timberwolves

    During Tuesday morning’s shootaround, Irving dropped a special message for the Timberwolves and their hopes to avoid elimination in Game 4. Kyrie is adamant that all the pressure will be on Minnesota:

    “This is their Super Bowl. It’s just a normal game for us,” he said.

    You have to note, though, that no other team in NBA history has ever come back from a 3-0 deficit. In a way, you could also say that there is no longer any pressure on the Wolves since nobody expects them to win this series anyway. To a certain extent, it’s the Mavs who are under pressure to close out this series as soon as possible, especially since the Boston Celtics have already booked their place in the NBA Finals.

    Kyrie and Co. are well aware of this narrative as well and surely, they won’t be taking their foot off the gas as they look to put an end to their opponents’ misery tonight.
