Minnesota is pulling away....as they should. Them and The Kings have drastically underacheived this year IMO.

You gotta give it up for these guys. At least they didn't quit. The fought back and made the Jazz a little uncomfortable. This is with our best players out and a couple D leaguers. If they gave the same effort as the last three quarters, they might win a few games. I guess I prefer it this way. Pa-ting!

I'm not sure Minnesota is underachieving. Remember how crappy OKC was with Durant and Westbrook the first 2 years? It takes young guys time to develop & learn how to win in this league even if they are #1 picks. I do think Mitchell is the wrong coach for that team tho.
Go Suns!

Brooklyn has no incentive to lose, while the Lakers have no incentive to win.

I could easily see them finishing - 1. Lakers, 2. 76ers, 3. Suns, 4. Nets, 5. Timberwolves

Watched (had the game on) while at work today. Didn't get a whole lot of time to really analyze what was going on.

Effort sucked in the first half hence the quick hockey line change.

Markieff took 22 shots. Made just 8. One more week of him hopefully.

How did Orlando Johnson end up with more mins than Len?

When Joe Ingles is blowing by people you know there wasn't much defense being played by anyone.

I am glad they didn't upset the ping pong balls so I guess we'll take it.

Not bad. I'd take it. It would give us a decent shot at number one. Of course with the Suns' luck, we'd get pick number 4 or 5.
