Very quietly, the Minnesota Timberwolves have been the best bet in the NBA the last three weeks, and we look for them to continue their improvement with a big win over a New Orleans Hornets team that is considered one of the elite clubs in the league.

The Timberwolves are 9-1-1 against the spread in their last 11 games. Furthermore, they did win straight up in the push, which was a two-point win over an up-and-coming Milwaukee Bucks team, and they also played well in the lone ATS loss, a three-point defeat to the Miami Heat.

This recent hot streak vs. the number has now put Minnesota over .500 ATS for the season at 20-19-1, and they are also now 4-1 straight up in their last five home games with a nice average winning margin of +11.6 points per game.

Meanwhile, the Hornets may be 26-13 SU, but they have been a disappointment for their supporters this season, going just 17-20-2 ATS. They do enter this contest on a three-game winning streak, but keep in mind those three wins all came from teams from the weaker Eastern Conference.

Finally, New Orleans is playing short handed right now without David West and Tyson Chandler, and we look for the hot T-Wolves to take advantage of this fact.
