Lineups<\/strong><\/h2><p><strong>Can the Warriors survive without Curry again?<\/strong><\/p><p>Stephen Curry was on fire in Game 1. He had nailed 3 triples en route to a 15-point performance with just around 30% of the game done. But after he made a floater around mid-range, the guard felt something was off with his hamstring. <\/p><p>He left the game with around 8 minutes left in the second quarter and never returned to the match. The Dubs managed to extend their lead to 13 points by the end of the first despite his absence. Their dynamic defense limited the Wolves to a mere 31 points in 24 minutes.<\/p><p>The Dubs then had a humongous 36-29 third quarter. By then, the Timberwolves had dug too big a hole. They managed a 9-point advantage in the fourth quarter, but it was too little, too late. Buddy Hield filled Curry&rsquo;s void with 24 points.&nbsp;after an explosive 33-point game in the deciding game of the first round,<\/p><p>Jimmy Butler had an all-around 20-point, 11-rebound,&nbsp; and 8-assist performance. Meanwhile, Draymond Green, who has averaged single figures thus far, pitched in with 18 points. Gary Payton II was huge again as he snatched 4 steals of the benhc.<\/p><p>For the Timberwolves, Anthony Edwards led the way with 23 points, while Naz Reid was terrific with 19 points off the bench. Julius Randle had 18 points while Jaden McDaniels had 12, but it wasn&rsquo;t enough in the end. <\/p><p>Minnesota made just 5 triples compared to 18 by the Dubs. They need to evaluate their horrible play in Game 1 and need to be more assertive against a switch-heavy Warriors defense.<\/p><p><strong>Timberwolves Expected Starting Lineup<\/strong><\/p><p><strong>PG:<\/strong> Mike Conley | <strong>SG: <\/strong>Anthony Edwards |<strong> SF: <\/strong>Jaden McDaniels | <strong>PF: <\/strong>Julius Randle | <strong>C: R<\/strong>udy Gobert<\/p><p><strong>Key bench players<\/strong>: <strong>SG<\/strong>: Donte DiVincenzo, <strong>SG: <\/strong>Nickeil Alexander-Walker, <strong>C: <\/strong>Naz Reid<\/p><p><strong>Injuries\/Updates:<\/strong> Nothing significant to report<\/p><p><strong>Warriors Expected Starting Lineup<\/strong><\/p><p><strong>PG: <\/strong>Stephen Curry | <strong>SG: <\/strong>Brandin Podziemski | <strong>SG<\/strong>: Buddy Hield | <strong>SF<\/strong>: Jimmy Butler<strong> <\/strong>| <strong>PF\/C: <\/strong>Draymond Green<\/p><p><strong>Key bench players<\/strong>: <strong>SG\/SF: <\/strong>Moses Moody, <strong>PG<\/strong>: Gary Payton II, <strong>SF: <\/strong>Jonathan Kuminga, <strong>C: <\/strong>Quinten Post<\/p><p><strong>Injuries\/Updates<\/strong>: Stephen Curry is QUESTIONABLE.<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Minnesota Timberwolves vs Golden State Warriors Total Over\/Under Prediction- NBA Betting Picks<\/strong><\/h2><p>The first game produced just 187 points.

The former bet cleared with flying colors, but the latter just by a whisker. <\/p><p>At any rate, I see the scoring going up in Game 2, but how much? The bookmakers have brought down the identical odds to around 201-202 for understandable reasons.

I am currently an NBA Predictions Writer on The Playoffs. I enjoy this job because it helps keep me in the loop about the game I love while fulfilling the pleasure I derive from stats.
