Re: Warriors vs Timberwolves - Game 1
I don't like how Jimmy's moving at the end of the game... dude looks like he can barely walk. Give him and Draymond off game 2, just let the young guys play and lose by whatever.
edit: Wolves open Game 2 as -9 point favorites.

Re: Warriors vs Timberwolves - Game 1
Wow the Warriors are now -150 favorites to win the series... even with this win, that's def not what I expected given Steph's injury. Maybe Vegas has some knowledge of the injury that we don't.

I wouldn’t mind punting game 2 but damn the wolves are so out of sync with their shots that I wouldn’t want them to find their rhythm making the series even harder moving forward.

Yeah, he's still limited.
Worst case, there will be a game 5 which will be next Wednesday, that gives Curry a week if it's minor, hopefully he doesn't have to come back earlier then he needs to.

That's the thing... they pulled it, and they just put it back up at -150 Warriors +130 Wolves. What do they know?

Steph has an outside shot of getting back for game 5 hopefully back by game 6? Idk that seems crazy that we’d be favorites now.

It's already been bet down to -120 lol...

edit: now both sides even at -110... I expect Minni will be favored again soon lol
edit2: Wolves now -130 Warriors +110
edit3: Wolves now -150 Warriors +130... This is about what I expected to see when the game ended.

Agreed. Maybe junking up a game with the backups screws up their rhythm even more lol

Yea I think they should try to make it another rock fight but if it gets away early then you can sit them early.
At least Pat looked serviceable to eat some minutes. Jk might be able to eat some minutes. We almost saw some minutes from key.

Damn, gutsy win but if Curry misses two or more games, it’s looking grim.

Re: Warriors vs Timberwolves - Game 1
Think the wolves will be going away from the Julius and Rudy pairing. They played lot better with naz in for either of them.

I'd be shocked if he missed less than 2 games.
