Minnesota Timberwolves - 1.95Golden State Warriors

It is not easy to have a 0-3 result in a series, but you don't want to believe that a team like the Timberwolves will lose so easily. Before this series, the Minnesota team looked good, defeating the Suns and later defeating the NBA champions over 7 games. So far in this series, the Timberwolves have been unluckily losing, but if they continue to fight, they may have a good chance of winning.

I don't expect both series to end in a sweep, especially since the Mavs were considered underdogs in the first place. Edwards believes in a comeback and stated that there will be a fight, but the main reason why I am going with the Wolves is because all 3 games were close and Lively suffered an injury. He was one of the key players, the rotation between Gafford and Lively was almost perfect, and now Powell, who is very poor, will get more minutes and the team will suffer. Also, I don't expect Luka, with his injuries, to play as perfectly as before.
