Milwaukee opened up with a 4-point loss at New Orleans while Minnesota was also a loser in their opener, so both teams looking to carve out their first win of the season. The biggest concern for the Bucks right now and this affects teams more on the road than at home, is depth. The top five scorers scored all but 11 points in their opener, which isn't going to get it done in this league especially on the road. The T-Wolves lost a 1-point heartbreaker to the Kings and will be trying to get the bad taste out of their mouths. Newcomer Wesley Johnson from Syracuse was an immediate contributor with 13 points and Michael Beasley had 17, so some young players are stepping in and up. The favorite has only cashed two of the last eight in this series, so I like Minnesota in this one.
