After Action Report

The Timberwolves demolished the Bobcats 116-85. Every possession went the Timberwolves way. The Timberwolves owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Bobcats' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends. The Timberwolves locker room is humming, and it showed. Timberwolves' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Never a doubt in this one.
