The Wolves won last night by 14 points and they are a much better team than the Blazers to lose this one. Still, the Blazers are playing with a chip on their shoulders as they have lost the last 4 games by an average margin of 28 points. Therefore, this will be another easy win for Minnesota but the Blazers will be close enough to cover the +17.5 spread.
