Prediction
You have to give the Minnesota Timberwolves credit for making it this far. The strides that this franchise has made this season are encouraging. Anthony Edwards is a budding superstar and has really been exactly what Karl-Anthony Towns has needed next to him.
Still, this series is more about the Grizzlies’ greatness than it is about the Wolves. And there’s nothing wrong with that. The Grizzlies are in the midst of a special season and it will continue moving forward into the second round.
Could it all click for the Wolves in one game to extend this series to five games? Absolutely.
However, I’m not betting on that happening. Grizzlies should win this series with ease.
