    Books making a statement

    Minnesota only -4.5 at home? This line should be -6

    Dallas covers and wins

    Minnesota has been underachieving early season. They have lots of depth and should be a good home team going forward. I'd take Minnesota here. Dallas will likely have trouble containg Love.

    not one team in the league can contain love. guy is an absolute beast....

    this is 1 of 82 games on an nba schedule. in my opinion, breaking down matchups is irrelevant during the regular season. most of these guys pick and choose when they want to play hard. in the playoffs is when i think analyzing that type of information is more meaningful.

    i know im likely in the minority here, but im all about the situational angles in the nba....

    Timberwolves already beaten them twice this season. I think it will be hard to beat them 3 times in a row.

    You're right. One game can go either way if fatigue and motivational factors come into play. I'm very much into situational angles as well, but power rankings and positional team depth means quite a bit to me, too. Dallas is old team and quite a bit better at home. I see Minnesota clear favorite to take this one at home. Possibly by double digits.

    Dallas has had some trouble against teams with dominant big men on the road. Love will do some damage down low and get some open looks for good jump shots for rest of the team. Of course, Dallas might win this. Who knows. I think it's just more likely minnesota covers.

    Dallas handed them the game on a silver platter. Minnesota sucks, and always will

    Minny are fukking horrible.. Been saying it for a couple weeks now. I thought at the start of the season this was a playoff team but clearly they aren't, at least not in today's West.
