loves FG's are sort of deceiving.. like 9 of those shots were just attempted tip-ins in a group of 6 players. we need to run a lot more plays for him, hes got a sweet jumper. his post game is solid too.. not sure why we're deferring from him so much.

If the Lakers had Aleksandar Pavlovic and the Timberwolves had Kobe Bryant, the Timberwolves would have won tonight.

Good run for your T-Wolves, stay positive fellas your team is doing it the right way. The Triangle looked better than I thought it would be. The only thing I saw is when Sessions is running it he tends to rush a little, he has to remember it's a tempo controlled offense. Big Al looks to be warming up, once him and Love get in sync it's going to happen for you guys.

Good game by Al and Love on the boards, too bad no one else helped. Corey Brewer made up for sucking ass at shooting with that dunk...especially being on Fisher.

Overall a pretty good game. I think Rambis left Sasha in as to gift wrap victory for his former team. Seriously, why did he get minutes over Ellington, Brewer, and Wilkins?

Flynn easily should've had 3-4 more assists. There were many missed open looks and tip ins.

Brewer's dunk was amazing. My girlfriend got mad at me because I went "UUUUHHHHHOOO
WWWW" too loud after the dunk. (haha, try reading that out of context).

Geawd, that's an ugly term. LA burns down over a poorly played wins, much less losses. Glad that's not even in the lexicon over here.

OJ Mayo is one of the best defenders in the league, hes a two way player and hes a great passer and playmaker.

Number 2 on SC Top 10

Announcer: You can't posterize a Laker at Staples Center, can you?

I didn't see the game, but I've watched the replay of Brewer's dunk about 15 times and WOW it was good. Maybe we will be seeing him in the dunk contest? If Gerald Green can get in, so can Corey.

I think I have to disagree with you. At this point in his career, Love is terrible in the post. There was a reason he was a league leader in getting his shot blocked last year, he can't jump in traffic and he has no post moves. His jump shot seems a little better, but only when there is no defender around. On offense his game still seems to be mostly reacting well to broken plays and offensive rebounding. These are good skills, but I haven't seen much more from him yet.

I was at the game, I usually try to catch the Wolves when they're in town. The Corey Brewer dunk was amazing, I want him on the Lakers, but the Lakers don't have anything worth trading that I would want on the Wolves.
