After Action Report
In a track meet, the Timberwolves rolled past the Jazz 118-94. The breakneck pace played right into Timberwolves' hands. Shots just aren't falling for the Timberwolves lately; the Timberwolves pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Timberwolves locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Timberwolves per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Never a doubt in this one.
