After Action Report

The Timberwolves blew the doors off the Mavericks 134-95. The Timberwolves got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Timberwolves' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Timberwolves' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Mavericks looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Mavericks' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.

What tipped it

  • Timberwolves · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Mavericks · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Mavericks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
