*** Official Wolves vs. Clippers Game Thread 11/29 ***

[Jimi_Thing]

Hope everyone had a Merry Thanksgiving. Back to reality as our favorite team hosts the Los Angeles Clippers.

LOS ANGELES CLIPPERS

- Kawhi Leonard - OUT
- PJ Tucker - OUT
- Kobe Brown - OUT
- Norman Powell - GTD

MINNESOTA TIMBERWOLVES

- Joe Ingles - OUT
- Coach Finch - LOST

The day after Thanksgiving. A game after another embarrassing loss. Do the Wolves show up tonight with their head on straight or as fucked as ever? I say AS FUCKED AS EVER!

[weimy froob]

powell out tonight.

If there is a reason to be optimistic about the Wolves: Their last seven games have included clutch time, meaning they're not getting blown out. Changes/adjustments have to be made, but players who say they're not far off have evidence to back that up.

Zubac 20/20 dead ahead. Clips by 16.

An ESPN television audience. Let's do it. It's time for this team to GEL .

[somuchyummy]

harden i think dropped 42 in the last game - so at his age, let's hope it's just an odd burst and not some trend.

[somuchyummy]

jimi. i know it's fitting now. but i beg you to lose the taxidermy abomination. at some point it becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy.

[boxter432]

Get big lead.
Huck a pile of threes and miss. Turn the ball over.
Lead gone.

Rinse and repeat.

[somuchyummy]

4 mins without a point.

[somuchyummy]

three of those minutes had our pure PG Conley at the helm.

[somuchyummy]

i will give them credit for this. we didn't allow 30 in the first. yay to D.

[weimy froob]

time for the rookie to get some minutes.

[feekdogg]

Man this Clippers squad is just chock full of vagabond role players.

[weimy froob]

nickeil continuing with his stellar play tonight. the second unit is pushing the lead.

[somuchyummy]

Man this Clippers squad is just chock full of vagabond role players.

we're lucky powell is out tonight. he usually vagabonds the hell out of us.

[feekdogg]

And Jaden's dead.

[weimy froob]

jaden gets fouled hard, but he shakes it off and hits the FTs.

[YBBR]

Let's go!

[YBBR]

The spaced out Julius just really doesn't work. Thats not his game. You couldn't get a more open 3 point shot than for him.

[YBBR]

Nice pass by Jaden

[Bob Wiley]

Does this game count in the standings?

[YBBR]

Does this game count in the standings?

Yep

[YBBR]

Man this Clippers squad is just chock full of vagabond role players.

Lol this made me laugh. They're basically a step up from common, run of the mill hobos!

[weimy froob]

zero minutes for dillingham.

[YBBR]

zero minutes for dillingham.

The new caged lion.

[weimy froob]

the last time the wolves have had the lead at the half? the game in sacramento two weeks ago.

[weimy froob]

three straight turnovers to start the half. luckily the clippers missed the three to take the lead. now Ant for an and one.

[boxter432]

Another ten pt lead gone in minutes.

[weimy froob]

ugly basketball to start this quarter.

[YBBR]

ugly basketball to start this quarter.

The starters need another offensive threat. They just do. Offense feels like it stagnates.

[YBBR]

Got a 3. Would have liked to see Jaden just keep attacking with that ball. He had some room to operate
