Less than three minutes in, Smith replaces Jefferson (presumably because Jefferson allowed a few baskets down low early). Clippers got to 6-1, a Doleac post move, then a Gomes break get it to 6-5.
The Wolves have built a double-figure lead (58-47) midway through the third. Doleac and Gomes (a double-double already) have been very active this quarter. The LA crowd is booing the Clips.
With the Wolves down 84-78 late in the game (2:13 left), Jefferson has made some great defensive plays. But Telfair keeps making some bad decisions and failing to finish at the rim.
This is an ugly team to watch... yes we could have a lot more wins right now but we cant close out games at all, and until we can do that we wont be anywhere near successful
