Keys to a victory:

1) contain Kevin Love
2) Limit turnovers
3) Rebounding
4) Make some damn 3's

Why can't we have 3 players run in for rebounds usually its just Gortat while everyone just watches the ball float. :(

Yeah, I noticed the same. Duds in the flow now unlike his first 10 games or so where he couldn't hit anything.

Id love to see Dragic improve on his ft and shoot around 80% not 73 he's shooting so far this season.

Sooner or later Dragic will dish out 20+ assists.
