The Minnesota Timberwolves aren't a team I'm eager to lay chalk with, but they're at home with the rest advantage and the Clippers aren't playing well. The Los Angeles Clippers got their boots smoked last night, and they lose in the underdog role by an average of 4.7 points. It's hard to get behind the Clippers with confidence given this week they're having. I don't like it, but give me the Timberwolves and the somewhat reasonable number.
