Minnesota in FQ has been an amazing stat

[Wineguy]

I know against the Spurs it is tough to mention, but look at the past. They are a covering machine. Just passing on info and hope I don't jinx them tonight.

Well, a little late for this game. Minnesota is the best 1st quarter team in the league, but guess who is second!!

I expect the Spurs to come out fast after the loss to the Grizzlies. I don't really bet quarters anymore (used to take the Suns all the time when Nash played for them), but if I did this game is probably not a great spot for either team, but I would lean towards the Spurs here.

I tailed, thanks! :toast:

Me too except I played the ML(+265). God Damn T-Wolves get out-scored 18-4 in the last 5 minutes.

That was close, but held true. Nice thinking!

For the future, San Antonio is the best in the league at home in first quarter margins (+6.2)

I wished I'd have spotted this thread earlier....

Had no idea of the stats you speak of, but you must get them somewhere??? Glad it held up tonight? I have ridden this money train for awhile. What are the other top first quarter teams? Home and away? I think New Orleans up there? And Toronto? And Phoenix?
