This is not a game that we are gonna win from deep. Our whole team is off. We gotta keep owning the paint.

Yes, that is the point of the big line up right. We do a reasonable job on D and take it to them in the paint. No paint no game.

Wolves 53% overall, but only 28% from 3. 92% from the line. Over 70% from 2.

When I was kid I was huge wrestling fan. Bubba Dudley would get on the mic and talk for a while. His tag partner Devon Dudley would get on the mic and say “oh my Brother, TESTIFY.” Reading what you wrote it made that pop into my head :).

Great 3rd quarter, they continue to put pedal to the metal on the fourth and make it a statement win!

Best 3rd quarter of all time! Are we going to p*s this one away like the other games? Need to score 22 pts in the 4th quarter to win this one.

;). He blocked one too. Also I don’t know if you noticed but his defense is better than advertised. :). Monte Morris is a huge get.

Just lose the 4th quarter by 16 or less. That's all we have to do.

Marvelous third quarter but we all know how these big leads can melt like a snowman on the Vegas Strip. Let's play with the same energy in the 4th, tough defense and good offense and we should be able to withstand the Clippers even if they get hot.

20 point lead and the ball with 9 minutes to go. This has to be a win.
