This is an 8* WEST-COAST EXPRESS on the Minnesota Timberwolves.
While we wouldn't be completely shocked by an outright victory, we will in the end recommend grabbing as many points as you can. There is literally only one way the Wolves can move this season and that's up as they'd finish dead last in the league a year ago. Minnesota will be extra motivated today as well as it looks to win one for Flip Saunders after the coach finally succumbed to cancer last week. The Wolves have a nice mix of veteran experience and explosive young talent. Kevin Garnett is back in Minnesota for another year and he's joined by Andre Miller, and Tayshaun Prince, the trio have a combined 29 years of experience. These three will be tasked to influence Andrew Wiggins, No. 1 overall pick Karl-Anthony Towns and slam dunk champion Zach LaVine. The Lakers were 21-61 last season and will once again be led by Kobe Bryant, who will be looking to mentor nine players who have three seasons or fewer of NBA experience. Bryant has been a shell of his former self the last two years because of injury and already comes into the regular season banged up after suffering a lower-leg contusion in the final preseason contest. To say this is a "revenge" game would be a bit of an understatement, the Lakers have had the Wolves number for a few years now, having won 29 of the last 34 in the series and 15 of the last 17 at the Staples Center, a situational factor that we can also take advantage of. We think the WOLVES depth will prove to be the difference in the end.
