00:00let's discuss the short lines tonight we'll focus on those uh as you mentioned the pistons jumping
00:05for joy after uh clinching their division which is certainly incredible to think that they hadn't
00:10done this in like 20 years but they did and uh so i mean look they're not on cruise control
00:15necessarily but they are three and a half point favorites minnesota jockeying as you mentioned
00:20for position they're plus three and a half i believe anthony edwards is back tonight is am
00:24i right about that or no i know he didn't play this weekend total of 225 he actually he is
00:30technically
00:31back um he is still questionable tag with that knee injury that he's been nursing over the last three
00:36weeks of the season um i i think that he probably will play in this game uh which is indicating
00:42of
00:42the spread i think this would be a higher like five and a half six point spread depending on if
00:46or maybe even a little lower than that if edwards did end up sitting but i think edwards is probably
00:50going to be in the lineup here probably not playing a full complement of minutes but you're still
00:53dealing with injuries on the uh piston side obviously no kate cunningham still they do get
00:57duran harris thompson and duncan robinson back so most of that starting lineup is back in the rotation
01:02it's been a lot of games down the stretch here for the pistons and as you mentioned there i got
01:05the
01:05celtics right on their heels but i think that the pistons are still going to lock up the number one
01:09seed
01:09um i kind of like the timberwolves with the points here i feel like this game just means a tiny
01:13bit more
01:14for this team on the road don't have don't really necessarily want to there specifically but i'm going to
01:19kind of target a prop here i really love io disumu here uh the rebounds and assist line at nine
01:24and a
01:24half um he has been awesome since he got traded mid-season from the bulls getting inserted as kind
01:29of a six man to start off when he joined this team and now he is in the starting rotation
01:33i love this
01:34line even more obviously if edwards sits out but the other night first triple double for this team
01:38i've been chasing that since he joined them and missed out unfortunately but um his involvement with
01:42the offense and how he facilitates rebounds from the guard position i think is going to be on full
01:46display in a very defensive battle with one of the best defensive teams at home in the pistons so
01:51really like the sumus props i also think like you mentioned edwards will play but look for a little
01:55bit of a minutes restriction possibly and i kind of leave with the wolves with the points here just
01:58because like i said and like you mentioned this western conference race right in the middle of the
02:02thick of things right there every single one of these dubs matters so i think the wolves are going
02:05to come out with some intensity tonight
02:07you
