00:00 We're going to preview to the two most surprising teams in the NBA, the Minnesota Timberwolves
00:04 against the Oklahoma City Thunder, the Timberwolves best defense in the NBA.
00:08 Honestly, by a country mile, they have been unbelievable on defense.
00:13 And then Shea Gilgis-Alexander, who is fourth right now in MVP odds, I think deservingly.
00:17 So everyone is wondering, will the Oklahoma City Thunder use these bazillion picks they
00:23 have to acquire a star, a marquee talent to put on the court with Shea and with Chet?
00:29 How do you break down this game between the T-Wolves and the Thunder?
00:34 I think you're going to have a great matchup for two teams.
00:37 And let's be honest, it's playing as well or better than anyone in the NBA.
00:41 But when you look at it, to me, I'm going to take the Minnesota Timberwolves on the
00:45 money line here.
00:46 I just think this is a team that's the best defensive team defensively in the NBA.
00:51 I think what you're getting out of Rudy Gobert is the best out of Rudy Gobert, I would dare
00:55 say, guys, in an extremely long time.
00:58 They haven't kind of figured out how to play together.
01:00 So to me, this is a game where I am going to lean to the Minnesota Timberwolves, plus
01:06 two and a half points on the road.
01:08 I think this is going to be a good spot for them.
01:10 And I do think the play of Anthony Edwards is another player that we should have talked
01:15 about in the last segment as regards to being in that MVP conversation.
01:20 And he's one of the ten best players in the NBA.
01:21 Let's just put it to bed right now.
01:23 Let's put it to bed right now.
01:25 One of the ten best players in the NBA, the way he could score at will, but it's been
01:29 the defense of Ant that I've been really impressed with.
01:32 Give me the two and a half points I'm going to take for the Minnesota Timberwolves on
01:35 the road tonight.
