00:00Game number two, another road team here that was getting double digits.
00:03That was the Timberwolves in game number one.
00:05Ant-Man played, Ant-Man conquered.
00:071-0 series lead for the Minnesota Timberwolves.
00:09And now we see those spreads, Joe, that were 13 and 14 and a half.
00:13They're down to 9 and a half across the board.
00:15The total of 215 and a half.
00:17Game number two in San Antonio, probably a must win for the Spurs.
00:21What's the spread line for you here?
00:23Well, I got to tell you, right?
00:25I mean, that one was, Donnie, 13 and a half as much as 14 prior to the tip there.
00:32And then, of course, Anthony Edwards was ruled in and the market went crazy.
00:35But they still closed right around 9 and a half, 10-point favorite in that first game the Spurs did.
00:41And they lost outright.
00:44And that's where Minnesota comes into play.
00:46Obviously, this is we're in round two of the postseason.
00:49Minnesota has been there and done this.
00:52Now, for three straight years, they've made it to the Western Conference Finals, right?
00:56Round two is no big deal for them, no matter who's on the court.
01:00The Spurs had to learn that lesson the hard way in game one.
01:04It is going to take a collective team effort because Minnesota will outwill them.
01:09The interesting part is that we were expecting a lot of points in that first game,
01:14and we didn't get them, Donnie.
01:16We barely got over 200 total points in the game.
01:19We've seen the total start to creep back down in this one.
01:23And I think that's right because in no way does Minnesota want to speed up and go, you know,
01:29running back and forth here and get into a firefight with San Antonio.
01:32They're going to make it ugly.
01:34They're going to slow the tempo down.
01:35I think this total could be dropping even more throughout this series.
