After Action Report

The Timberwolves survived the Jazz 104-101. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Timberwolves sent shots into the fifth row all night; the Timberwolves played with the chip of a recent gutting loss. The Timberwolves locker room is humming, and it showed. Timberwolves' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
