I hate to be so negative, but I honestly don't know who has been "guarding" Thompson the last five minutes when he scored 13 points, because whoever it was, was never near him! Anyone know who the no-defense guy is?

There ya go, Rubio. If your shot is not falling, take it to the rim!

Ugly 2nd half. Non-existent bench, Pek continues to have trouble finishing (did he get too big?), and Rubio has lost the little confidence he had in his shot. Yuck. Gotta bounce back on Friday night.

Martin had him a few of those times...

Well, at least I didn't pay for tickets to this game like Lip did. It's all I've got.

I was afraid of this, Either Thompson or Curry getting ridiculously hot like one of them tends to do every couple of games.

Well, the importance of this game was to gauge where we stand in the West. We obviously have work to do, whether it's getting Turiaf and Bud back, developing some young players, giving time for chemistry to gel, making a trade, or whatever.

So we are not ready to compete for a top-4 seed just yet. But the Mavs game ought to show if we are ready to compete for a playoff spot.

Go Shabazz......about time we see him......i mean, he won't make the subs worse....

[Porckchop]

And Wolves fans hated the idea of Martin on this team becuz of his lack of defense.. Remember, when there are nites where noones hitting their shots u should be thankful for a consistent scorer. Defense be damned. Plenty of guys on this team known for their defense that can go cold offensively for games at a time.

The blame for this game has to go on our big 3 (Love, Rubio, Pek) if those 3 can't do the things that need to be done, then we will lose. They shot 16-44. Terrible!!!! Yep, we can blame second stringers as much as we like, but when our best players can't score, we are not a good team.
