TWolves stumble to the finish line vs injured Clips, snap losing streak. They did respond to Ant’s callout, playing tougher on D. Ant was mostly cold, pressing, but did make a big 3 w 2 mins left. THIS TEAM WILL FIND ITSELF, CONTEND.After last season's deep playoff run to the Western Conference Finals, there was serious hope that the Timberwolves could have similar success this season.
Through 19 games, the Wolves hold a 9-10 record, which puts them in 11th place in the Western Conference standings. Late November is still far too early to talk about the playoffs, but that is one spot outside of the Play-In Tournament. It would be a bit naive to expect a team to hit the ground running after trading such a significant player like Towns, but the Timberwolves need to start reeling off some wins if they have any hope of being a contender. A performance like last night's win over the Clippers was far from pretty, but it's the type of game that good teams find a way to win at home.
Bayless credited Minnesota's defense, which allowed only 92 points to the Clippers. That is the fewest points Minnesota has allowed all season, which now gives them something to build on heading into Monday's game against the Lakers.
