Game: New Jersey Nets @ Minnesota Timberwolves
Graded Selection: 2* New Jersey Nets -3
Analysis:
The Target Center will be the site of today’s contest between the host Minnesota Timberwolves and the visiting New Jersey Nets. The Timberwolves have been costly to their backers this season going 10-25 ATS overall on their home floor including 6-24 ATS as a home pup and 5-13 ATS as a home underdog of 6 points or less. This series has seen the Timberwolves cover eight of the last ten but they will certainly need some of that past luck here because they have been nothing short of terrible at home this season. They are 3-12 ATS in home games versus teams who attempt 18 or more 3 point shots per game on the season and 4-13 ATS in home games versus teams committing <=14 turnovers per game. Even though the Nets allow 101.9 points per game on the road this season we know that the T-Wolves are 3-12 ATS versus teams allowing 99 points or more per game during the second half of the season this season. These two teams have met once this season in Jersey with the Nets winning 113 to 84 as a seven-point home favorite. You could be thinking revenge for such a humiliating defeat but the Timberwolves are 12-23 ATS in home games revenging a loss where their opponent scored 100 or more points and 4-12 ATS in home games revenging a road loss versus opponent this season. Finally we have an NBA System that tells us to play against Western Conference home teams that have lost at least three straight versus Eastern Conference foes and now host an Eastern Conference team, these teams are 9-34-3 ATS and fail to cover the spread by 4.8 points per game. Lay the points with the Nets as they get the win and cover over the Timberwolves on Sunday afternoon.
