The Minnesota Timberwolves mortgaged their future when they traded for Rudy Gobert, and after a scuffle with Kyle Anderson during game 82, Gobert is going to be suspended for their Play-In matchup vs the Lakers, who have been one of the top teams since the All-Star break.
Based on the star power that the Lakers bring (LeBron & AD), and what the Timberwolves provide in terms of Ant-Man, KAT, and recent drama..this Play-In game sounds like the one to watch. We're also getting Pelicans/Thunder in the 9/10 matchup on the Western Conference side, and Heat/Hawks, Raptors Bulls in the East.
Kravitz and I react to the Play-In matchups, plus Suns/Clippers, Kings/Warriors in the podcast clip below. Plus, our Old Takes Exposed, captured from our Bold Weekend Predictions from last Friday.
