Awesome to have Ricky back. We need to toughen up quickly with Jordan and Griffin in town and put a body on them. This one is gonna be tough but I believe we can pull it out. Absolute BS if Tyus isn't getting at least equal to Dunn minutes tonight. He has outplayed him and helped this team more, hopefully Dunn is primarily backing up the 2 and Tyus is backing the point.

Even with Ricky, Paul always torches us. And Griffins looks like himself again.Clips defense are so good right now. This coud be ugly very quickly. Still hope for a W

CP3 tends to benefit from Rubio helping slightly too much.

Generally seems like a bad matchup for us when it comes to the starting lineups, as Deandre and Griffin may be too strong for Dieng and KAT, and LaVine should have a lot of trouble running through all the screens set up for Reddick.

Still, I hope they have a bad day on their back-to-back and that we use it to our advantage and win this!

I hope I'm wrong but this one feels like it will be ugly. I just don't like the matchups.

This matchup is akin to the okc game, but worse.

The bigs will have their hands full and they will have bigger defenders on wiggs all game.

Need one of those lavine in a bottle type game.

All I want is the refs to call the game equally. They're most likely going to beat us anyway but them getting favorable calls from the refs is like getting kicked in the groin after falling down a set of stairs.

I was looking for Clippers vs Wolves thread but I found only that Ricky is coming back which will make even stronger pack than last time almost blow out win if wasn't that inexperienced close outs. I am confident in tonight good performance of starting 5 and at least 3 in the mood bench players. Clips are tough and huge they could out glass Wolves from whom they yet need to prove they have better shooters.
