That was way closer than necessary.

The Kings were up 102 to 91 with just over three minutes left to go, but careless mistakes and terrible time management allowed the Wolves to come back and have a good chance of winning or at least sending the game to OT.  Fortunately, Rudy Gay hit a huge three in the final minute, the Kings hit their free throws, and J.J. Barea's deep three to tie at the buzzer was well short.
