He hits it and ties the game at 60. Mobley gets it done on the offensive end and the Clipper quickly regain the lead.

After a Clipper turnover and two quick scores by the Wolves, they take their first lead of the night.

Ross will enter the game for Thornton with a little less than half of the quarter to play. Thornton is only 1-9 from the field.

Thomas hits a 3. Deficit cut to 4 before Al Jefferson scores on a tip in.

Mobley just picked up his 4th foul. :nonono:

Thornton is back in the game. Jefferson is really going off now.

Jefferson gives Thornton a hard foul and the rookie will head to the line. Wolves up 8.

Randy Foye just hit the longball and we're now in a 10-point hole. Clippers are totally coming undone in the 3rd quarter.

104-83 Wolves win. Forgettable 2nd half performance by the Clippers who only managed to score 27 points (12 in the entire 4th quarter). Thornton never found his shot going 1-15 (that's going to hurt a few of my fantasy teams :( ) Craig Smith was a beast in the 2nd half finishing with 21 points. Al Jefferson had a slow start but ended the game with 25 points and 11 rebounds. Chris & Corey please come back soon.

I saw Thorton scoring his 33 the other day, man what a steal for you guys, I think the flu caught up to him though going 1-15, but he did get to the line which is a positive sign from a rookie.

When Brand, Livingston and your top pick gets back....I don't even want to think of the nastiness that will ensue.

Looks like we had a nightmare second half. I thought we were the ones that would win by 20. Can't do much when we are short handed.

From the box score looks like we got beat in every category.

I don't see why, we're 5-2 over our last 7 including wins over GSW and Phoenix.
Thriving on mediocrity since '89.

I was aware that the Twolves had been playing much better than earlier in the season. With us being under maned that really doesn't help. We played a good first half and a horrible second half.

we'll gladly take you extra ping pong balls if you'd like!

nbalp didn't broadcast the game tonight but at the half it appeared we'd have this one in the bag. that was until we threw up another stinker of a 3rd quarter.

i hope kaman is healthy by monday. i've got some real good seats for when the clippers make their annual trip to the garden!
