Timberwolves-Lakers Recap
[Game Links: Timberwolves Boxscore | Lakers Boxscore | Team Comparison | Highlights] Timberwoles hand Lakers their 4th straight loss By: Timberwolves.com Posted November 28, 2014 HOT: Andrew Wiggins. The 19 year old was matched up against the NBA's 3rd all time leading scorer Kobe Bryant, and the rookie held his own against the Mamba. Wiggins led the Timberwoves with 20 points on 8-of-13 shooting from the fied in the win over the Lakers. Wiggins also finished with 7 rebounds, 2 assist, and a season high 3 blocked shots in 35 minutes of action. NOT: Nick Young. Minnesota was able to really pull away late in the 4th thanks to the questionable shots taken by Nick Young. Swaggy P went 0-of-8 from the floor in the final five minutes as they Wolves were able to turn his bricks into fast break points to give them a comfortable lead. The Lakers depend on Young to carry the scoring oad when Bryant is resting but tonight he failed to do so when it mattered. Quotable: "I see myself when I see that young buck (Wiggins) out on the court. He's got all the tools of a great talent." Lakers SG Kobe Bryant X-Factor: Kevin Martin. K-Mart has grown into his 6th man role as of late because Flip Saunders has given him the green light to shoot at will with the 2nd unit. Martin finished with 16 points and 3 assist in just 18 minutes off the bench. His shooting was impressive going 6-of-10 from the floor, 1-of-1 from three, and 3-of-3 from the free throw line. Rookie Watch: Julius Randle and Zach LaVine. Randle finished with 4 points and 3 rebounds in 20 minutes off the pine for the Lakers. LaVine was the Timberwolves 3rd leading scorer with 13 points, 4 rebounds, and 4 assist in 32 minutes.

Timberwolves-Blazers
[Game Links: Timberwolves Boxscore | Trail Blazers Boxscore | Team Comparison | Highlights] Lillard drops 40 as Blazers top Timberwolves 113-112 By: Timberwolves.com Posted November 30, 2014 HOT: Damian Lillard. Lillard had a field day against the Timberwolves finishing with a season high 40 points in the nail-bitting win. Lillard went 12-of-22 from the floor including 12-of-13 from the free throw line. Not only was he scoring the rock, he was dishing it out as he finished with a team high 9 assist. Portland rode the 3rd year point guard all game as he played a game high 42 minutes. NOT: Minnesota's point guard's defense. As stated above, Lillard dropped 40 points on the Timberwolves point guards as they had no answers for him. Zach LaVine and Mo Williams had good games on the offensive end, but they played no defense as Lillard attacked the paint at will constantly blowing past them with ease all night long. Quotable: "I feel he's one of the best point guards in the league but you guys keep under rating him." Blazers SG Wes Matthews X-Factor: LaMarcus Aldridge. LMA didn't have any eye popping numbers, but he did fill the stat sheet up while Lillard out on a scoring show. Aldridge finished with 19 points, 9 rebounds, 2 assist, and 3 steals in 36 minutes. This was a night where LMA could take a back seat and enjoy the show. Rookie Watch: Andrew Wiggins and Zach LaVine. Minnesota's rookie duo combined for 43 points, 13 rebounds, and 13 assist in the losing effort. Wiggins finished with 22 points, 9 rebounds, and 6 assist while LaVine finished with 21 points, 4 rebounds, and 7 assist. On Tap: Los Angeles Clippers (13-3) Top Performers -- 8-7 (22|30|22|38|112) Shabazz Muhammad: 23 Points - 6 Rebounds - 2 Steals - 9/17 FG - 2-4 3PT Andrew Wiggins: 22 Points - 9 Rebounds - 6 Assists - 6/14 FG - 9/10 FT Zach LaVine: 21 Points - 4 Rebounds - 7 Assist - 7/11 FG Kevin Martin: 16 Points - 2 Steals - 6/12 FG - 4/6 3PT 8-9 (37|26|19|31|113) Damian Lillard: 40 Points - 3 Rebounds - 9 Assist - 12/22 FG - 12/13 FT LaMarcus Aldridge: 19 Points - 9 Rebounds - 3 Steals - 9/17 FG Wes Matthews: 18 Points - 5 Assist - 3 Steals - 6/11 FG - 3-7 3PT Nicolas Batum: 10 Points - 6 Rebounds - 3 Assist - 4/8 FG |

Griffin finished with 28 points, 4 rebounds, 2 steals, and 2 assist. NOT: Nikola Pekovic. With a majority of Minnesota's players having sucess, Nikola Pekovic struggled going up against DeAndre Jordan. In 32 minutes, Pekovic finished 3-of-12 fom the field for 6 points and a season low 3 rebounds. Another number that stands out is pek had the same amout of turnovers has he did rebounds with three. Quotable: "I told J.J. to try his best to tip it me and I would try to do something with it. Didn't expect to be wide opened like that though." Clippers PF Blake Griffin X-Factor: J.J. Reddick. Reddick stepped up with CP3 having a horrible game shooting the ball. Reddick finished with 28 points, 4 rebounds, and 3 steals in 37 minutes for the Clippers. Reddick went 11-of-18 from the field and knocked down four of his 8 three point attempts in the victory. Rookie Watch: Andrew Wiggins and Zach LaVine. Wiggins had a quiet night scoring the ball (11) but he did pull down a career high 13 rebounds and pitched in with 4 assist and 3 steals in 35 minutes.

Thunder/Knicks Trade
Thunder/Knicks Complete 4-Player Deal Associated Press -- In a trade nobody saw coming, the Oklahoma City Thunder have trade point guard Reggie Jackson to the New York Knicks in exchange for shooting guard Iman Shumpert. The Thunder will also send Lance Thomas to the Knicks while Pablo Prigioni is headed to the Thunder with Shumpert. After not being able to reach an extension with Jackson before the October 31st deadline, the Thunder brass felt that Jackson would bolt this summer for a max contract, So decided to move him while they could get something in return for the 4th year point guard out of Boston College. In 18 games for the Thunder, Jackson averaged 12.6 ppg, 3.1 rpg, and 4.7 apg while shooting 43% from the field and 26% from three. The Knicks, whoa are 9-10 and in 6th place out East, will finally have some stability at the point guard spot with Jackson and they hope to make a run for a top seed in the East now. For the Thunder, they get a defensive minded two guard to pair in the backcourt with Russel Westbrook. Shumpert was off to a slow start with the Knicks averaging 10.2 ppg, 4.0 rpg, and 2.6 apg while onyl shooting 40% from the floor and a career low 24% from three. Incoming PG Reggie Jackson SF Lance Thomas Incoming SG Iman Shumpert PG Pablo Prigioni |

Timberwolves-Rockets Recap 12/5/14
[Game Links: Rockets Boxscore | Timberwolves Boxscore | Team Comparison | Highlights] Houston too much for Minnesota in 100-92 victory By: Timberwolves.com Posted December 5, 2014 HOT: James Harden. Harden really loves to play against the Timberwolves and it shows after his big performance. After dropping 46 points on them back in November, the Bearded One finished with 36 tonight in the win. Harden went 11-of-22 from the foor and a perfect 11-of-11 from the charity stripe while pitching in 4 rebounds and 5 assist in 36 minutes. The duo of he and Howard was too much for the Timberwolves to overcome. NOT: Shabazz Muhammad. Muhammad had a nice game on the offensive end of the floor with 13 points and 5 rebounds, but he just decided not to show up at all on the defensive end. Muhammad was the man with the job to guard Harden and he failed as he let Harden go off. The former Bruin was put on him after Wiggins had a tough out the first game between the two team, but Muhammad didn't fare any better this time. Quotable: "We've got to play better team defense on the elite scorers in this league. Can't do it with just one guy." Timberwolves coach Flip Saunders X-Factor: Dwight Howard. D12 had his way against Minnesota's bigs all game on his way to a 27 point and 18 rebound performance. Howard finished 12-of-23 from the floor with 2 steals and 2 blocked shots in 36 minutes. Howard showed off an improved post game and didn't have to rely on scoring at the free throw line. Rookie Watch: Nick Johnson. The Rockets 1st round pick played 15 minutes off the bench and scored 5 points to go along with 2 assist and 2 steals while shooting 20of-3 from the floor in his limited time on the court. On Tap: San Antonio Spurs (14-5) Top Performers -- 12-7 (19|24|27|30|100) James Harden: 36 Points - 4 Rebounds - 5 Assist - 11/22 FG - 11/11 FT Dwight Howard: 27 Points - 18 Rebounds - 2 Steals - 2 Blocks - 12/23 FG Jason Terry: 12 Points - 3 Rebounds - 2 Steals - 5/11 FG - 2/5 3PT Isaiah Canaan: 9 Points - 7 Assist - 3/8 FG - 3/5 3PT 9-9 (21|22|15|34|92) Mo Williams: 20 Points - 5 Rebounds - 3 Assist - 7/16 FG - 3/11 3PT Kevin Martin: 14 Points - 5 Rebounds - 5 Assist - 5/11 FG Thad Young: 14 Points - 2 Steals - 4/9 FG - 5/5 FT Shabazz Muhammad: 13 Points - 5 Rebounds - 6/10 FG Last edited by Jumpman14; 01-03-2015 at 04:52 PM. |
