My first game thread, No Ricky in end of game situations.
Pretty clear ole Pork is the MVP of this one fellas. I'll give a shout out to Wiggins for doing his part.

Good job!

But I fear we have an LST complaint coming down the road regarding minutes... ;-)

Small sample size but the hypothesis is doing well 2-0 in close games and the jazz had bad possessions down the stretch against the wolves.

Small sample size though

I was worried about that. First game thibs didn't trust his bench. Not like they did anything in the small minutes they got.

I think there's been a lil bit of "here we go again" attitude amongst the players in these end of game situations. ( can't really blame em) hopefully this gives them a confidence boost to play a lil more loose feeling like it might be their time to get a few bounces to go their way.

How about that Wiggins? Motor and all. I'll take it, he's a 4th quarter beast.

Yawn, just another Sunday. Oh wait, holy crap, we just beat a potential top 4 or 5 NBA team on the road! Yes!

- Game ball obviously goes to Wiggins. Awesome 4th quarter. He got up a lot of 3's again too. He also bottled up Paul George, so he got 'er done on both ends.

- For all of KAT's struggles, you look up and he ends the game with 27 and 12. As J-Pete said, he just has to let the damn game come to him. His defense on Adams....yikes. Just got man handled in there.

- Butler's role is starting to come into focus. I think he realizes that KAT and Wig are probably the two more naturally gifted scorers, but he's the better play maker. So he's finding himself facilitating more than scoring. Still, he made a couple of awful turnovers again tonight and missed a couple of wide open shots.

- I'm OK with what Thibs did tonight with minutes. That is a huge road win against a division rival. He can't do that every night obviously, but it was justified tonight.

- Westbrook made some ridiculous shots. I mean those 3's are line drive balls that he was hitting off the dribble. Karma was finally on our side when Andrew hit his own ridiculous shot to seal the deal.

- I'm starting to appreciate Taj and how he defends vs. Dieng.

Big win!
