And that's game! Finally, first road win. Tobias aka All-Business doing it all once again, glad that he is back on track.

Missed the game tonight, but the West coast trip pretty much went as expected. Glad we managed to salvage something.

Not to nitpick a win, but every time Dre has a game with zero blocks I just kinda shake my head. I want that defensive awareness lightbulb to go off. Ah well, win is a win.

Two years ago we weren't a .500 team with a full lineup. Now we're a .500 team when missing our most important player. I'll take it.

There were a lot of things to be encouraged by in this win. At the top of my list is Jon Leuer coming off the bench to chip in 14 pts 10 boards. He's a gem! I'm looking for him to create a number of mismatches for other teams. Drummond continues to ball. The combo of Mook & Harris doing work. My only concern with those two is the lack of rebounding but that's partly because of all the closing out they did on shooters.

Going back home with a .500 record is respectable. Let's keeping growing and trending in a positive direction

Jon has been solid overall but his shooting has been disappointing. 29% 3pt shooting so far this season...not good. Alot of his misses are way off too.

That's a legit concern; however his 91% from the line suggests he's got touch and his 38% from three last year suggests he has the range. I'm optimistic his accuracy from three will improve with minutes and as the season goes on. When Reggie returns there will be more wide open looks, which could result in gimmes from range.

I think percentages are looked at way too closely this time of year, I think judging on 3pt % etc isnt very useful until near Christmas

Fact we won a road game ,as bad as we have been, and it was on a b2b is encouraging.

TH needs to get used to those pull up jump shots, i think SVG is making it a point for him to get to the rim, but at times the jump shot is open and he forces it to the rim trying to finish a difficult shot.

KCP continues to play impressive basketball, while not particularly a efficient night, he's shooting 38% on the season and 43% from 3 in the month of November. His hustle and defense as always was on display , if he continues this level of play, we are definitely going to regret not signing him to 20 mil.

Leur- Low key

Dre- As Cow mentioned, he didn't have 1 block this game which is worry some, but at the same time doesn't mean he didn't alter shots. What frustrates the most about Dre, is he's probably the worst double teaming big in terms of timing and cutting off the passing lane to his guy. Just absolutely no clue what he's doing. Offensively he looked real frustrated last night, but he has to relize that he's not a efficient offensive option. Also for some reason he's stopped attacking the rim of the bounce which i thought he could do all day on Gasol. All in All decent game by dre

Honestly was in and out of this game as been busy, so only got few glimpses and updated reports. If anyones got a replay. Would love to watch

especially with players like leuer who don't take a lot of threes. before the game vs the spurs he was shooting 39% on the year, he went 0/6 in his last two games and now he's at 29%.

In case you missed the game like I did to watch U of M blow it, I found the whole game here.
