Nelson, Warriors hit the road to Minnesota
Basketball Betting Lines
04/07/2010 -
(Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Don Nelson failed in his first chance to become the NBA's
all-time winningest coach last night in Washington. Now the veteran mentor
will try again when his Golden State Warriors visit the hapless Minnesota Timberwolves.
JaVale McGee set new career-highs with 25 points and 15 rebounds on Tuesday,
as the Wizards denied Nelson his historic win with a 112-94 rout of Golden
State.
McGee's previous bests were 20 points and 12 rebounds, and his performance
helped keep Nelson at 1,332 career wins, which is tied with Lenny Wilkens for
first all-time among NBA head coaches.
Stephen Curry tallied a team-high 27 points for Golden State, which had won
two straight and four of six. Corey Maggette added 20 points for the Warriors
while Monta Ellis sat out his fifth straight game with the flu.
"It was a game at halftime that was going to be very difficult to win," Nelson
said. "We took our licks today. I wish I could have rested some guys more, but
you have to have five guys on the court at all times. If I could have had
three, I would have done it."
This might be the best opportunity the Warriors will have to give Nelson his
record-breaking win. Minnesota is a Western Conference-worst 15-62 on the
season and lost for the 18th time in 19 games on Sunday in Oklahoma City when
Kevin Durant scored 40 points to set a new franchise single-season record in
scoring, as the Thunder defeated Minnesota, 116-108, at the Ford Center.
Jonny Flynn and Ryan Gomes led the Timberwolves with 22 points apiece. Corey
Brewer added 18 points, Al Jefferson 16 and Damien Wilkins 12 in defeat.
"We had opportunities to cut it even closer than that but we missed some easy
shots inside. We were right there, I was happy with they played in the second
half," said T'Wolves coach Kurt Rambis.
Golden State is a dreadful 6-32 on the road this season but one of those wins
came in Minneapolis back on Jan. 6. Overall, the Warriors are 2-0 vs. the
Wolves this year and will be aiming to sweep the season series from Minnesota
for the first time since 1991-92.
