With multiple starters coming off of the injury report, the Brooklyn Nets could be on the verge of defeating the Minnesota Timberwolves.

Yet, the key for Minnesota could lie in their defensive potential, particularly the matchup between Bridges and Timberwolves defensive standout Jaden McDaniels. Should McDaniels prove himself capable of keeping Bridges relatively quiet, the Timberwolves could maintain their current playoff position. This is a major boost for the Nets, who have had to rely on their collective abilities more than ever now that they aren’t able to rely on Kevin Durant or Kyrie Irving offensively on a nightly basis.

The Nets nearly pulled off an upset against the Bucks on Thursday night. Can they bounce back against the Timberwolves? Here's my betting preview.

The win puts Long Island in striking distance of the G League record for consecutive wins. “I think it kind of starts with him when he has Dru Smith and David Duke with him that he’s preaching the same message that we are here, working on the same concepts.” The win gives Long Island a 22-3 regular season record with only seven games remaining before post-season begins on March 28. Led by Chris Chiozza, who finished with 25 points, 12 assists and five steals, Long Island dominated things early but Maine used an 11-2 run in the fourth quarter, taking its first lead with 3:12 to play. and Dru Smith who combined for 30 points in Brooklyn’s loss to the [Milwaukee Bucks](https://www.brewhoop.com), as well as top scorer Kaiser Gates. the Maine

The Nets end up splitting the Milwaukee-Minnesota back-to-back, and remain tied with the After allowing just 43 points in the second-half up to that point, after repeatedly executing switches and forcing various Timberwolves to drive into multiple bodies when they stepped inside the arc, the Nets went bozo-mode on the very last possession of regulation. Brooklyn would score just five measly points throughout the rest of regulation, Nic Claxton fouled out in the middle of it, and what looked like it what would be a Nets win going away turned into a nail-biter. [Minnesota Timberwolves](https://www.canishoopus.com) was something of a “prove it” game for the [Brooklyn Nets](https://www.netsdaily.com). Only, the Timberwolves successfully challenged the foul call, and O’Neale would not get to shoot those free throws; it turned out to be a major turning point. But overall, the mentality is just ‘get in the lane and break down the defense.’” The two-time Net did just that throughout the second half. But in the second half, he continuously got to the paint and made the right play, one of which was this thunderous dunk: There’s a reason Gobert was Minnesota’s leading scorer after the first two quarters, a constant beneficiary of dribble penetration and lobs from Mike Conley and Kyle Anderson. A few hours later, the C-team Nets got within three points of Milwaukee in the fourth quarter before bowing out of a surprisingly fun contest. His array of drop-killing pull-up jumpers and corner threes led to 20 first half points for him, although zero rebounds and zero assists in that time-frame made for a funny-looking stat line. But on Thursday afternoon (perhaps because of the Nets’ semi-waving of the white flag), the Bucks ruled out Giannis Antetokounmpo.

Mikal Bridges, Spencer Dinwiddie and the Nets clawed out a thriller 124-123 overtime win over the Timberwolves Friday night.

However, a hot shooting stretch from Bridges and others opened up the floor in the third and Dinwiddie took full advantage, exploding for 17 points in the second half. With Minnesota keying on Bridges, Spencer Dinwiddie took the reins of the offense in the second half and overtime. With the Wolves face-guarding Bridges in overtime, the Nets leaned into Dinwiddie in isolation for nearly the entire period. With Nic Claxton in foul trouble, Brooklyn leaned into small-ball lineups with Royce O’Neale and Dorian Finney-Smith at the five, a move that proved effective in the third quarter and overtime. Rudy Gobert did the majority of the Wolves’ damage in the first half, scoring 14 points on 7-of-9 shooting. After trailing by eight at the half, Brooklyn outscored the Wolves by 17 points in the third to take control of the game.

“In the halfcourt you start to go elephant hunting and you’re just trying to manipulate the game,” Dinwiddie said. “But regardless of the defensive switches it really had more to do with focus and attention to detail. But that’s when they finally tightened the screws and strung together some stops. “Honestly I just think the focus and attention to detail. “We’re a young group,” Nets coach Jacque Vaughn said.
