Denver Nuggets Form
Denver go into this game on the back of a big win that gives them the chance to knot up the series before heading home.
The Nuggets, who went 57-25 in the regular season to finish second in the Western Conference, made straightforward progress through the first round of the playoffs.
They beat the Los Angeles Lakers 114-103 and 101-99 at home, before heading to LA to take the third meeting, 112-105.
Denver lost 119-108 in Game 4, but they immediately rebounded at home with a series-clinching 108-106 victory over the Lakers in Game 5.
The Nuggets failed to follow that up as they suffered back-to-back home defeats to Minnesota, losing 106-99 and 106-80, but they hit back in Game 3 with a 117-90 blowout win.
Minnesota Timberwolves Form
Minnesota enter this matchup looking to restore a two-game cushion in the series before heading back out on the road.
The Timberwolves, who finished third in the Western Conference with a 56-26 record, sent a message to their postseason rivals with a stunning series sweep of Phoenix in the first round.
They opened the series with a couple of home wins over the Suns, winning 120-95 and 105-93.
Minnesota wasted no time in wrapping things up, as they went out on the road to win 126-109 and 122-16 in Phoenix.
The Timberwolves red-hot form then continued on the road in the first two games of this series as they won 106-99 and 106-80 in Denver, but that run was finally ended by a 117-90 defeat on Friday.
Verdict
Denver dominated in Game 3, but we are giving Minnesota the benefit of the doubt.
Aside from that loss they have been excellent in the playoffs so far, and this Timberwolves team has routinely covered against the Nuggets.
