Q4
MIN 120 LAL 105
The start of this quarter doomed the Lakers as Minnesota built a 12-point lead. Gauging how this game went, it looked like it was going to go down-to-the-wire. But, the Timberwolve just pulled away and did all the little things to win. Goodness, gracious, even with an integral piece in Rondo back, the Lakers still have issues, especially since they're not a team to come from behind unless LeBron's on the court. More to come in the full recap.
Q3
MIN 84 LAL 82
Strong finish to the quarter after a slow start even though the Lakers still trail. They had a solid start this quarter, scoring five quick points. Then, they just fizzled out and the T'Wolves just controlled the pace for the majority of the game after a quick timeout. Give credit where its due. Neither team wants the other to pile up points and build and insurmountable. This is setting up a tightly contested 4th quarter. The Lakers hung around and got themselves back in the game.
