    Thoughts on Wolves/Celtics PK Friday Night

    think there may be a nice sized bet to be made on this game, anyone got any opinion here?

    agree with the Raps being terrible, just hate going against Friday night home dogs. something about Friday nights make bad teams play decent.

    This game kind of jumped out to me. Line isn't out yet, probably waiting on the status of Barrea, Ray, Pek, etc., but my guess is it will be close to a pickem. Can't get much of a read on it though. Minnesota is just barely hanging in there for that final playoff spot.

    Yeah Denver has no right being 8.5 point favs over anyone on the road. But you never feel safe taking the Bobcats.

    I think the Wolves will win, so I'm taking the Celtics.

    Kind of liking the Wolves here, especially if they can get Pek and Barrea back. Minnesota needs this game just as much as Boston does, if not more. They are sitting 2.5 games out of the 8th spot. They have a pretty "easy" upcoming schedule ahead: BOS, @POR, @SAC, GS, @NO, PHX. By the looks of that schedule, I think they won't fade out of this race like a lot of people expect MIN to.

    KG's return to MIN, crowd shoudl be pumped.

    EDIT: Just checked out the BOS schedule, and oh boy do they need this one bad if they want to win that Atlantic Division to avoid MIA or CHI in Round 1. After they play Minni tomorrow, they play MIA, SA, @CHI, @INDI, PHILI, @MIA. My guess, and this is just a guess, but they really need this game, because MIN is the only non-playoff team they are playing for the next 2 weeks. I really hope BOS just free falls here near the end of the season, I'd rather see Monta and Jennings in the playoffs than these old guys.

    I'm going to wait and see the status of Beasley, Barrea, and Pek before I make any decisions.

    Not only that, but probably their easiest game. They cant afford to blow it here and have to go up against all of them after that with the stronger possibility of more losses. Itll be easier to take a loss down the road with one more win on your record than that loss down the road being compounded on top of one you had a better chance of beating (if that made any sense)

    I guess the part that really troubles me is the Wolves can shoot wherever and arent forced into the paint like Jazz was the other night. Add to that Boston will have problems with Gasol on 2nd chance shots. Add to that Celtics beat Wolves at home last meeting. Both are coming off a day of rest.

    If I had to call it Id say Wolves look good here over the Celtics, but it depends on which Celtics team comes to play.

    EDIT - Mixxed up the Rockets/ Grizzlies game here with Gasol reference lol ^^^

    Doesn't matter who's missing from the wolves, I took celtics +1.5, bet at your own peril. Save yourselves.
