After Action Report

The Timberwolves held off the Clippers 105-98. Timberwolves' offense had its way with the Clippers. You could feel the revenge motivation from the Timberwolves; the Timberwolves bent the defense out of shape from deep. Timberwolves' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • Clippers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Clippers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Timberwolves · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
