The Timberwolves host the Warriors at Target Center for Game 1 of the Western Conference semi-finals. The Wolves hit the ground running in the first round, disposing of the Lakers 4-1 without being in danger throughout the series. Buoyed by a solid squad and rigorous defense, Chris Finch's men showed impressive maturity and constant intensity. Semi-finalists in the West last season, they seem determined to go one step further this year. Their athletic freshness, combined with the depth of their bench, could prove decisive against opponents who have become more worn down over the years.

The Warriors, for their part, struggled against the Rockets in the first round. Steve Kerr's men had to dig deep to snatch qualification, winning 4-3 after leading 3-1. A seven-game winning streak that could well prove decisive in the run-up to the second round, where a rested Minnesota side with positive momentum awaits. With several of its key players tired, Golden State will have to draw on its playoff experience to try and get out of the wolf trap.

Minnesota Timberwolves - Golden State Warriors Key Points

  1. Minnesota dispatched the Lakers fairly calmly (4-1).
  2. Minnesota had 6 days off before Game 1.
  3. Golden State was pushed to the limit by Houston (4-3).
  4. Golden State had just one day's rest before Game 1.

Our Minnesota Timberwolves vs Golden State Warriors Prediction

The Timberwolves are the favorites in this series, thanks to their serene qualification in five games against the Lakers, which gave them six days' rest before Game 1. This freshness contrasts sharply with the situation of the Warriors, who had to battle all the way to Game 7 against Houston and enjoyed just one day's rest. Golden State, tired from a longer series, may find it hard to compete from the outset. Consequently, the Wolves have what it takes to come out on top in Game 1. Our prediction for Minnesota Timberwolves vs Golden State Warriors: Timberwolves win!
