Any time you have a 27 point lead at halftime, things are probably going well.
Any time you get to stack blowout wins, things are probably going well.
And any time those wins both come against conference opponents and in particular in LA, you guessed it, things are probably going well.
Tonight’s blowout by the Minnesota Timberwolves over the Los Angeles Clippers wasn’t close at any point, which was great news for an Eastern Standard Time member, and moved remarkably quickly. There was almost no point after the first slate where this game felt like anything more than a YMCA pickup game.
