Wolves 125, Warriors 119: Scraping By

We’ve seen it many, many times before, including the loss in Memphis two nights ago, and tonight we saw it again. Minnesota have always had a real problem with playing down to their opponents. When a team is devoid of talent like the Wolves are, they simply can’t afford to drop games against bad teams. And make no mistake, this Golden State Warriors team is bad.

So bad in fact that even on a night that the Wolves had 17 turnovers and missed nine free throws they still couldn’t climb over the line. Four quarters of sloppiness couldn’t seperate the two squads, but Minnesota was able to scrape over the line in overtime.
