Wolves Drop High Scoring Game to Spurs, 122-114.

It was an admirable effort by the Timberwolves, but in the end, the Spurs showed their class and won going away, 122-114.

There are a lot of things we could focus on tonight: A defense that gave up 122 points and over 50 percent shooting, an offense that scored 114 on nearly 50 percent themselves, the Wolves inability to cope with Kawhi Leonard, the role fatigue played as Tom Thibodeau once again rode his starters for heavy minutes, you name it.

But let’s start with the turnovers, which killed the Wolves, especially in the third quarter as their tenuous lead disappeared under a hail of mis-handlings that led to baskets at the other end.
