It’s 1-1 in the Western Conference semifinal series between the Minnesota Timberwolves and San Antonio Spurs. Although Minnesota won Game 1, their 38-point thrashing at the hands of the Spurs in their latest game tells us San Antonio will be going for the kill again in Game 3. So our Timberwolves vs Spurs match prediction is backing a Spurs win tonight.
The Timberwolves impressed in Game 1, taking a slender but series-defining 104-102 win in Game 1 of the semifinals. However, Game 2 was the real test, and Minnesota failed it miserably.
Not only did they lose 133-95 to the Spurs, but San Antonio also won all four quarters, forcing both Anthony Edwards and Julius Randle to just 12 points each. In truth, they’ve met thrice this season, with the Minnesota Timberwolves winning three. However, no lead was nearly as big as the latest Spurs win.
Just as with the Blazers in the quarterfinal, San Antonio will be looking to close out this series in the next three games, starting with their first win of the season in this stadium. After their total dominance over Minnesota on Wednesday, we’re confident the Spurs can win at 1.50 odds.
