A little bit turnover prone to start, but seems to have calmed down.

Hopefully the bench can not suck today

Josh Smith with a couple of dream shakes on his way to 2 points in the post.

Josh Smith has put in some time with The Dream at points in his career. Good to see him put it to some use.

Was hesitant about Luc starting but he made a nice corner 3 and was trying hard. Let's see if our bench can continue the form from the last game.

Austin is such an awful PG, Doc needs to figure out that whole issue with the bench and no real PG

but if our team's bench doesn't know what they're doing, the other team doesn't know either!

yea, that was kinda dumb

The bench really does not have a plan of how they play though, they just kind of do random. They obviously can't run the same plays as the starters because the bench talent doesn't make sense for those plays, but it would be nice to have some idea of a plan

totally. honestly i wouldn't care so much if they were winging it if they were 4/5 or 5/5 of our best bench defenders. there's an element of chaos creation that you can get when everyone's deflecting/stealing/blocking the ball non-stop and those can lead to some easy points.

with jamal/pierce, not so much.

Nice to see Lance starting to show some signs of confidence.

I was hoping paul would be better but the reality is he has passed his time.

Jamal needs to stay on the bench for our collective sanity.

btw doc saying wes johnson needs to be a better defender is just incredible

Jamal Crawford apparently sets the gold standard for defense.

Jamal is "instant offense", so he gets a pass.

Mbah has been much better than Johnson when it comes to not fouling. Fouling too much on defense is not helpful for the team

Off Mbah a Moute's deflection of the ball, Griffin dives on the floor to get the ball going the other way for 2 points.

Milph and the studio team was trumpeting that the Clippers were outrebounding their opponent for the 1st time this season during the contest, but according to ESPN.com, the team finished with the same exact number of rebounds as the T-Wolves: 32 defensive rebounds, 7 offensive rebounds, and 39 total rebounds.
