After Action Report
The Clippers stunned the Timberwolves 115-111. The Timberwolves had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Clippers came in with something to prove after a loss; Clippers' defenders refused to give up clean looks. Timberwolves' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
