27-22 Clippers after 1.

We're ahead, but it should be by more. Minny is only shooting 32% from the field. We have the rebound advantage at 14-9, but need to do a better job at denying 2nd chance opportunities. We also could do better at closing out on their shooters. Perimeter shooting isn't a strong point of Minny's, but you don't want them to gain any confidence either. We've had that happen last season against the Wolves when Derrick Williams went off against us.

We need to ease up on the turnovers.
