Minnesota Timberwolves @ Toronto Raptors

Toronto had made a great run when the season started. The power that Turkogly added to this team was amazing, combining a power shoot behind the arc to a power shoot in the paint.

Despite these 2 starters, Bosh and Turkogly, this team had also the improvement of their other players, which give them a extremely power game, with great rebounders adding that power to the offense shots behind the arc.

They struggled during 5 games, but turned around, winning the last two games on the road, including a blowout win on Chicago, where they're the underdog.

So, despite this team had suffered a letdown spot due to lack of accuracy, they are finally coming back and nothing better than receiving one of the worst teams on the league, to show their supporters that they are definitely playoff runners material.

Minnesota has their moment passing, taking 2 wins in L4 games. Great moment for a team with a 3-17 record. However, even with merit, this team takes advantage on some "sleaziness" of their opponents, and I don't think that they are able to keep this run, as they are 4-0 ATS in L4.

The truth is, this team is struggling a lot on their offense, and can't make the difference on the defense either. So, I think it will be really hard for Minnesota to keep the pace here and if the Raptors' defense doesn't work, I still believe in a double digits win here, as the offense can make this game an easy winner by themselves.
