T-wolves at Nuggets
(NBA) Timberwolves (MIN) vs. Nuggets (DEN),
Point Spread: 3.50 | -110.00 Timberwolves (MIN) (Away)
Result: Win
Denver might wish this one to be postponed rather than face the T-wolves, who've won the first two meetings this season. Keep in mind this was also the playoff matchup last spring that ended Denver's reign as NBA champ, as the Nuggets were a step slow across the floor to deal with the Minnesota athleticism. We saw this again a few weeks ago at Ball Arena, when the visiting Wolves rolled into town and cruised to a 115-95 win over a mostly full-strength Nuggets, with Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray available. Again, Denver had no answer for Ant Edwards, who scored 29. Recent back-to-back wins over the Suns and Pistons showcased Minnesota at its best, and we see nothing different in the fundamentals from the last meeting...or the meeting before. Play T-wolves
