Wolves coach Rick Adelman was back, as were two injured players, but Los Angeles spoiled the home team's good feelings.

What was pathetic was the reffing. It was obvious with 3 minutes left there was no way the refs were going to let the Wolves win. I mean how hard does Rubio have to get hit to get a foul called. Maybe if someone hit him with a chair or something they would call a foul. The NBA is just like the WWE just entertainment not a real sport as the rules depend on who you are. Going back to just watching college basketball.

I tore myself away from a very entertaining Wild game to watch parts of the Wolves game--just long enough to see multiple clear HARD fouls against the wolves not called by the NBA refs. Then I turned back to the wild game to watch the NHL refs call a penalty with just a couple of minutes left on what may be the best team in the league--the blackhawks. There's just no getting around it--NBA refereeing is horrible. I have advertisers are taking note--no way a fan can sit through a game on TV with such horrible one sided refereeing. Rubio, Shed, Barea etc. are getting hammered with no calls made. It doesn't even matter when it's a home game anymore! Sorry wolves--I won't be buying a ticket, I can barely stomach watching a game for more than a few minutes anymore!

Rubio is hurting the wolves with his bad shooting,, c'mon and easy layup that would be the difference between win or loose and he missed it... ugh

Hey the T-wolves lost but at least we saw a beautiful pass between the legs from Rubio. Winning is overrated. lol

Too much dribbling by Berea. Poor shooting by Rubio including ANOTHER blown wide open lay up. Disappearing act by Williams. Inexplicable substitution pulling Shved and putting in Rubio. Going under instead of over screens. Referee favoritism for the California icons. When does spring training start?

Can someone explain to me what might possibly be going through the mind of Steimsma when he took out Grant Hill? I detest thuggish play like that from any player! I sure hope he is gone after this season.

I am wondering when Blake Griffin will finally establish his pivot foot. Every 50/50 call went Clippers way tonight in the last 3 minutes. Regardless- Rubio looked quicker and more aggressive. Progress.......

Replays of the Steamer - Hill showed that Hill inadvertently caught Steamer with his left elbow right in the chin. Steamer then made the push. He wasn't coming in with a push. His arms went out as soon as Hill caught him in the chin with an elbow. Recall he was just jacked in the chin a second before by Barnes and was probably still a little hot. Not a smart or good move but he was just....steaming...for lack of a better word.
