Why should you want to watch tonight’s game, Timberwolves v.s Nuggets?

Tonight, the 9th seeded Denver Nuggets will be on the road to face off against the 8th seeded Timberwolves. This is the last game of each teams’ season, not only is this the last game of each teams’ season, but whoever wins tonight will have a spot in the playoffs.

So, there’s a lot at stake tonight. The last time the Nuggets made it to the playoffs it was during the 2012-2013 season, and for the Timberwolves it was all the way back in 2004. So, the eagerness to make the playoffs is definitely there for both teams, being that it’s been so long.

The Timberwolves now have their star player Jimmy Butler and Nuggets guard, Gary Harris is also back from injury. Harris adds more depth to this Nuggets team, and Butler is a player that the Timberwolves have been needing for a while now. When Butler was in the line-up the Timberwolves were seeded 3rd in the west. Once Butler went down, the Timberwolves slid all the way to the 8th spot. So, Butler makes all the difference. He’s the main reason why the Timberwolves will get this win tonight at home.

The Timberwolves have been one of the most talked about teams when it comes to making the playoffs. The time is now. They’re playing at home, and they have everyone back. Karl Anthony Towns, Andrew Wiggins and Jimmy Butler have to show up along with the other Timberwolves players, because the Nuggets will be ready to play. The x-factor in tonight’s’ game is Timberwolves guard Andrew Wiggins. If Wiggins plays a Wiggins like game the Timberwolves should win this one, but if Wiggins doesn’t show up the Nuggets can leave Minnesota with a win.

The Nuggets have been playing quality basketball as of lately. They just beat the Blazers, so they’re still on a high. This team is tough and their talented. In no way, they should be counted out in tonight’s game. These teams are evenly matched, but we’ve see how good this T-Wolves team is with Butler in the lineup. Meanwhile, the Nuggets have been in and out the playoff seedings all season. This game will be a great way to kick off the NBA playoffs. This game won’t be on any of the major stations, but it’s definitely game of the night.
