Wolves at Hawks: Trying to Beat a Bad Eastern Conference Team
The Timberwolves enter tonight’s contest against the Atlanta Hawks with little to prove. The Hawks are a league worst 14-35 and are losers of three in a row. Meanwhile the Wolves are 32-20, a single game behind the third place San Antonio Spurs and ready for a difficult back-to-back tomorrow night against the Toronto Raptors. On paper this is a night in which the Wolves should demonstrate that they’re the better team. But if the first 52 games of the season are any predictor: buckle up for a barn burner.
