After Action Report

In Minnesota, the Timberwolves ran roughshod over the Celtics 118-84. The Timberwolves got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Timberwolves sent shots into the fifth row all night; the Timberwolves ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire. The Timberwolves locker room is humming, and it showed. Timberwolves' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Garbage time started early.
