After Action Report
In Minnesota, the Timberwolves demolished the Raptors 128-98. The Raptors had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Timberwolves answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Timberwolves' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Timberwolves locker room is humming, and it showed. Timberwolves' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
