Playoff Series Preview: #6 Timberwolves vs. #1 Thunder

The Minnesota Timberwolves are back in the Western Conference Finals. For the second year in a row, the Wolves are just four wins away from the NBA Finals. Their opponent is the 68-win Oklahoma City Thunder.

The Timberwolves took down the Los Angeles Lakers and Golden State Warriors in just five games, but this series will be a much bigger test of what kind of team they are as the Thunder present far more challenges than either of the Wolves' previous two opponents.

The series begins on Tuesday with the series airing completely on ESPN or ABC.
