Two bottom-dwellers meet for the second time in two weeks. Seattle went in to Minnesota and notched the win on March 2nd. Losing to Seattle at home can't be sitting well with the Timberwolves and we think they bring a bit extra here as a result in an effort to return the favor. Seattle has in fact won all three games this season in this matchup so that gives us even more confidence in Minnesota's effort tonight. The T-Wolves are 18-7 ATS the past two seasons on the road playing with double-revenge. Seattle has dropped six straight games and nine of their last ten overall. The T-Wolves have just four road wins this season, but two of them have come in their last two road games! While not good, the Wolves have the better defense and we think they take this one. We also like the OVER given the state of these two defenses. Minnesota is allwoing 104.4 per game in division games while Seattle allows 102.1. Over their last five games, Minnesota is allowing 103.2 while Seattle is allowing 114.8! In games with a line of +3 to -3, the Wolves are 24-10 OVER the past two seasons. Minny and the OVER here.
