11/2 Timberwolves @ Warriors Rapid Reactions
Final Score: Warriors: 116, Timberwolves: 99 Timberwolves: Minnesota held with the Warriors for most of the game, but the Warriors made their typical fourth quarter run to put Minnesota away. However, the Timberwolves’ play up until the halfway mark in the fourth was encouraging. Minnesota was not shy from the three-point line. The Wolves attempted …
10/29 Lakers @ Timberwolves Rapid Reactions
Final Score: Timberwolves: 124, Lakers: 120 Timberwolves: It was a much better night for the Timberwolves after a putrid showing last Friday night against the Bucks. Minnesota’s offense was firing on all cylinders. The defense was a different story, but the offense was enough against the Lakers. Butler was on fire in the four quarter. …
10/28 Wizards @ Clippers Rapid Reactions
Final Score: Wizards 104, Clippers 136 Washington Wizards: What in the world is going on with this Wizards team? Hey! The rebounding wasn’t an issue! You wan’t to know why? Because there practically weren’t any to grab! The Clippers shot a blistering 54% from the field and 55% from beyond the arc. Washington had one …
10/28 Jazz @ Mavericks Rapid Reactions
Final Score: Jazz 113, Mavericks 104 Utah Jazz: Georges Niang. Have you heard that name before? If not, remember it, because he’s been ballin’ for the Utah Jazz and will only be getting more minutes as the season progresses if he continues to play at the level that he is. Niang’s basketball IQ is high, …
10/26 Bucks @ Timberwolves Rapid Reactions
Final Score: Bucks: 125, Timberwolves: 95 Timberwolves: What a brutal showing. This isn’t the way Minnesota wanted to play in front of a solid Target Center showing on a Friday night. There is so much going on around the team, that everyone is starting to wonder how long the drama can go on. While the …
10/26 Mavericks vs Raptors Rapid Reactions
Final Score: Dallas 107, Toronto 116 Toronto Raptors Pascal Siakam is one of the most underrated players in the NBA. The big man can take you outside and knock it down as well as put it on the floor. Siakam relentlessly runs the floor and is a quality passer for a big. Danny Green is …
10/25 Nuggets @ Lakers Rapid Reactions
Final score: Lakers 121, Nuggets 114 Los Angeles Lakers It seems like the panic and overreactions from the season-opening three-game skid are gone now. That’s not two wins in a row for the Lakers, both without Brandon Ingram and Rajon Rondo in the lineup. This was their first home victory, and it came against a …
10/25 Celtics vs Thunder Rapid Reactions
Final Score: Boston 101, OKC 95 Oklahoma City Thunder Donovan changed up the starting lineup tonight. Not exactly the change Thunder fans were expecting, but Grant blended in nicely. Can Ferguson do anything right offensively? The defensive frenzy OKC put on display in the first half was nice to see. While Boston was simply missing …
10/24 Wizards @ Warriors Rapid Reactions
Final Score: Wizards 122, Warriors 144 Washington Wizards: Same reaction, different game, right? Four games in, the Wizards own the worst rebounding differential in the NBA. Tonight, Washington had neither Dwight Howard or Ian Mahimi to start at center, technically giving Jason Smith the “start”, although he only saw 11 minutes. Maybe it’s Thomas Bryant …
