After Action Report
The Timberwolves rolled past the Spurs 124-101. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Timberwolves cashed in. The Spurs owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Spurs answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Timberwolves bench chemistry carried them. Spurs' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Never a doubt in this one.
