Mavs-Wolves Game 5 Preview and Pick
A crucial game 5 is on the schedule for the NBA.
The Mavericks and Timberwolves will face off in game 5 of their playoff series on Sunday at 11:30 AM ET. Minnesota has a 3-1 lead in the series, and can close it out with a win on their home court.
The Timberwolves have been the better team in this series, but the Mavericks have shown that they can be a tough opponent. Dallas has won two of the three games in Minnesota, and they will be looking to force a game 6 with a win on Sunday.
The key to the game for the Timberwolves will be to continue to play with the same energy and intensity that they have shown in the first four games of the series. They will also need to be able to make shots from the outside, as the Mavericks have been one of the best defensive teams in the NBA this season.
The Mavericks will need to find a way to get more production from their bench. They have been outscored by the Timberwolves' bench in every game of the series, and they will need to find a way to change that if they want to win on Sunday.
This is a crucial game for both teams. A win for the Timberwolves would give them a chance to close out the series at home in game 6. A win for the Mavericks would force a game 7, and give them a chance to extend their season.
