Prediction:

The Timberwolves had the best defensive efficiency in the league last season, and their overall strength has risen significantly. In their last game, the Timberwolves dominated the tough Clippers, winning by a 28-point margin.
This season, the Warriors have lost Thompson, and their dynasty is effectively over. New acquisition Melton is out for the season. Since the end of November, the Warriors’ performance has declined, especially on the defensive end.
Facing a back-to-back opponent, the Timberwolves should take advantage of their strength on the wings. I expect the Timberwolves to stop the Warriors.

Pick: Timberwolves +1.5 (bet365)
