We should win this one. We just need to keep playing well and build off that win against the Lakers. We want positive momentum going into the playoffs.

I've grown kind of fond of Motown Willie.

For as well as we played and as poor as the Twolves shot we're only up 26-20. Pekovic killed us in the 1st. I hope that we can build up a nice lead at some point.

26-20 Clippers after 1. Solid first, but it seems that we could have done better given the start. It's great to see both Blake and Paul active early. Paul has 4 points and 6 assists, while Blake has 10 points on 5 of 8 shooting.

I wish Odom would shoot better from the free throw line this year

I was a little surprised that Hollins didn't get called there, but sure enough he gets called on the 2nd shot contest.

I'm glad Blake is back in, we need some offense. Crawford isn't really shooting for some reason.

Minny is already in the penalty? 7:40 to go in the 2nd.

Clippers coming up with some steals resulting in dunk by Blake Griffin. I can't believe he has 17 points already.
