Spurs try their best to stay on the same level, but it’s hard to say they can do it. The team simply snatches victories, respectively, reinforcement is required. San Antonio played two games against Sacramento. In the first meeting, Gregg Popovich’s charges were not ready for pressure from the opponent (115-132). In the next match hosts played more confidently, as they entered the floor with special motivation, which helped to take revenge (120-106). The Spurs are preparing for a confrontation with a far from convenient opponent, because Atlanta has significantly improved this season, so we will have something to see.
Recently, Minnesota started having problems on the road, which has resulted in a losing streak of four games. The team could not cope with Arizona (2:5) and also suffered two devastating defeats from Colorado (1:5 and 0:6). The Wild can’t show their attacking potential due to defensive failures. Also, the Wilds could not cope with the outsider of the Western Division in the person of San Jose, losing 3:4 in the shootout. The team could not keep the advantage, giving the opponent a chance to level the score, which it took advantage of. Thanks to a large number of points scored, “Minnesota” has risen to the third line in the table and now has 44 points in the account.
