Important for Minnesota to get started with a win in Game 1 home floor situation. Timberwolves looking to shake the 0-3 regular season series record which saw them shoot just 29.6% from three point range and score just 102.7 ppg. Figure those numbers gain some positive traction here especially from leading scorer SG Anthony Edwards who posted just 14.2 ppg (his lowest output vs. any Western Conference team). Overall size, physical and defensive advantages all point toward Minnesota and all can be difference makers here. Interesting to note that when Minnesota’s quartet of Edwards, PG Mike Conley Jr. / PF Karl Anthony-Towns and C Rudy Gobert have been on the floor together this season the team ranks #3 in offensive efficiency. Return of KAT for a few games now figures to bring enhanced continuity and it lengthens the T-Wolves solid rotation. Playoff experience narrative a bit overblown since Conley Jr. & Gobert have an abundance of post season games under their belts as does reserve PF Kyle Anderson (51). Home atmosphere for opening game figures to be up a few notches to frenzied college type which Timberwolves are likely to feed off of. Minnesota likely to be in highly motivated & sense of urgency mindset seeking to change this year’s previous outcomes. Certainly good enough fundamentally to do so and situational aspects pull them through by more than the slim asking price.
