    I think Orlando is just playing against good teams. Denver does worry me though as they have clearly quit.

    It is past time for Mitch and Jim to "politely" suggest to Byron that he focus strictly on developing the younger guys.

    Philly still hanging, but will lose in the 4th.

    Wolves tied in the second, looking decent.

    Rubio has such outstanding vision; hitting his jumper tonight. I see Wiggins post up on the left block and that great 1st step he showed in college translating as he goes right around the defender, draws contract and goes to the line for 2 FT's

    Sixers lost, but not surprising. Would be nice for the Wolves to get a win, we are desperately in need of tank help.

    Of course Sixers lost... but the Wolves look pretty good I have to say. Better than us for sure. Too bad their schedule is so awful. They can win this against the other LA team.

    This has to be a sick joke. Hassan Whiteside just got in a fight with Alex Len, which means he will almost certainly be suspended for MIami's next game, which is against the Lakers. First OKC without Westbrook, now Miami without Whiteside. Meanwhile Lin can't miss and Tarik Black is glued to the bench. Just nothing going the Lakers way these days.

    Goodness gracious, Minnesota. They only posted up Wiggins 1 time in the last 2 or so minutes and had 1 good look that was generated off a screen they ran for Neal.

    Looking like another game where MIN is right there but will fall short. These close losses are hurting the Lakers, hope they turn it around soon.

    The previous position Garnett through such a beautiful post-entry pass to Wiggins; all Wiggins did was elevate and get fouled. The next possession Wiggins has to RECOGNIZE the double team, pass it back out to re-post or give somebody an open jumper.
