Minnesota at Memphis

The puzzling Minnesota Timberwolves, who have not made the playoffs for a long, long time, but have been projected to do so and failed the last couple of years, may finally be coming of age. They head to Memphis with a 14-10 record on the season. Memphis has really fallen apart. They fired their coach and have seen a lot of in-fighting and malcontent, often a product of a good team in decline. It has all hit them full force. The Grizzlies' 5-1 start has been left in the dust of a 2-14 game stretch since then, and they have not put one in the win column since November 7, enduring 11 straight losses. I think Minnesota is going to be like a cat pouncing on a woulded bird and take care of business here as a short road favorite. Make the play on Minnesota.
