After Action Report
The Timberwolves survived the Bobcats 107-104. The Bobcats couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Timberwolves. The Timberwolves played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; Timberwolves' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Timberwolves locker room is humming, and it showed. Tonight's Bobcats utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Timberwolves · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
- Timberwolves · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Bobcats · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Bobcats · Block Party Multiple shot-blockers turn the paint into a no-fly zone.
