The over is 4-1 in Timberwolves last 5 road games. The over is 6-1 in Cavaliers last 7 overall. The over is 5-1 in the last 6 meetings in Cleveland and 8-2 in the last 10 meetings.
The Minnesota Timberwolves finally found a way to win a game yesterday, but it’s going to take more than that for me to buy into them, as they’ve been god awful at both ends of the floor and don’t cover numbers. The Cleveland Cavaliers had their chances to win last night despite not being able to make a three and they turned the ball over 19 times. The Timberwolves aren’t good. If the Cavs clean things up a bit, they should cruise in the rematch. I’ll lay the chalk with the Cavaliers at home.
