After Action Report
The Clippers survived the Timberwolves 119-117. The breakneck pace played right into Clippers' hands. Clippers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Clippers bent the defense out of shape from deep.
What tipped it
- Timberwolves · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Timberwolves · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Clippers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
