After Action Report
In Sacramento, the Kings buried the Timberwolves 124-81. The Timberwolves had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Kings owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Timberwolves are in a full-on tailspin. The Kings locker room is humming, and it showed. Kings' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Never a doubt in this one.
