Saturday NBA sees an interconference matchup between one of the worst teams out East (or more realistically, the worst team out East) and a team looking to prove this season isn’t a complete disappointment with improved play out West.
*All statistics, rankings, standings and records are accurate as of this writing at 5:00 p.m. ET on Thursday, Jan. 26.
Brooklyn nets
The Brooklyn nets are averaging 105.8 points per contest on the season. That number is 13th in the NBA, but they’re trending in the wrong direction.
For much of the year, this team was a threat to put up 110 points on a nightly basis because of it’s pace. Brooklyn plays at the fasted pace in the Association.

The problem is that pace does not a good offense make. There’s still efficiency to take into account, which Brooklyn is regular one of the worst in that category.
Speaking of efficiency, the defensive side of the court doesn’t get any better. The Nets are the worst team in the league in terms of defensive efficiency.

On the year, this group is allowing teams to post 114.7 points per game. You can’t disregard pace entirely when figuring out why that number is so high, but better defensive efficiency would help their cause.
Minnesota Timberwolves
The Minnesota Timberwolves enter this contest scoring 103.5 points per game. That number is only good enough for 19th in the league.
Defensively this group is a bit better. It allows opponents to score 104.6 points per contest.
Even though that puts the ‘Wolves at a net negative in terms of average point margin, it is an improved 12th in the league, placing them in the Association’s upper half.

Minnesota made the news this week because fans across the league were disappointed to learn that back-to-back Slam Dunk Champion Zach LaVine is not going to be defending his title.
It’s true that this is a bummer for fans of wicked throwdowns on All-Star Saturday, but for fans of the Timberwolves, this is a good sign.
LaVine, who is having a career year, wants to focus on improving his game — not just his dunks.
In a fast-paced game against the Nets, look for him to be a potential game-high scorer.

Free Brooklyn Nets vs. Minnesota Timberwolves NBA Prediction:
Neither of these teams have been great against the spread as of late. But with this one being set at double-digits, we’re taking the underdog to at least keep things respectable with their ability to put the ball in the bucket — even if just because of their pace.
