Tough call here.

On paper, Thunder should probably take Minny out in 5.

But Minny has been pretty dominant in the paint and if the Thunder are vulnerable anywhere...it's in the paint.

Also, Minny is an excellent defensive team (as are the Thunder).

It's the playoffs, refs tend to swallow their whistles more. I think it's likely to get a bit physical and that, imo, favors Minny.

Wolves in 6.

Hmmmmm, Ant Man is a baller, plus Minny has some experience now making it to the West finals last year, I think it’s gonna be a dog fight…

Minnesota will struggle to keep up. OKC will likely have one average to below-average offensive output performance, and Minny will get a win because of that. Other than that, I see OKC just totally overwhelming Minnesota

Wolves in 6, because I am going to back my team.

First time in the playoffs Wolves have not had a significant size advantage, interested to see impact of that.
