00:00Minnesota wins comfortably by 24 and now a stronger favorite outright at minus 330.

00:06That's all well and good, but what really stands out to me, DRS, entering yesterday,

00:11Minnesota to win this series in the distance in seven games was the most likely outcome,

00:16the shortest price in the series correct score odds at three to one.

00:21Now what's the shortest number for this series to only go five games at plus 152?

00:26Yeah, and I thought that was ridiculous that it was going to go seven games yesterday,

00:30and that's what the sports books thought at that point.

00:31Well, if you think Steph Curry's coming back and being healthy for game five, it probably goes to seven.

00:35But if any indication in game number two of how the Warriors are going to play the rest of the series,

00:39it's certainly not going seven games, and it might just go five at this point.

00:43Also understand this, Minnesota knows they just got to win one game in San Francisco.

00:46Boy, that game three is going to be really pivotal because if you get one of those games again,

00:50115-100, the Minnesota Timberwolves, all that air gets let out of the building in San Francisco.

00:55They're going to give you their best punch in game number three as a chance to get back into the series

00:59and buy more time for Steph Curry if they need it.

01:02So I'm looking forward to that first quarter, first half in San Francisco this weekend

01:06just to see how they come out and play.
