Minnesota Timberwolves head coach Chris Finch called out star guard Anthony Edwards for his lack of energy in the team's 99-88 home defeat to the Golden State Warriors in Game 1 of the Western Conference semifinals

"You're the leader of the team, and you've gotta come out and set the tone," Finch said, per NBA TV. "If your shot's not going, you still have to carry the energy. If I have to talk to guys about having the right energy coming into an opening second-round game, then we're not on the same page."

Edwards scored 23 points in the defeat but went 9-of-22 from the field and 1-of-5 from three. He had just one point in the first half.

"It starts with Anthony. He struggled early and the light went out," Finch said, according to The Athletic's Jon Krawczynski.

Finch called the team's decision-making in transition "diabolical," per ESPN's Dave McMenamin.

The Timberwolves struggled to shoot the ball overall. They went 5-of-29 from three and missed all 15 of their first-half attempts.

"It didn't look like us at all. It didn't feel like us at all," Finch said, per Krawczynski.

Minnesota can tie up the playoff series with a victory Thursday.
