In Boston, the Timberwolves blew the doors off the Celtics 129-102. The Timberwolves got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Timberwolves answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Timberwolves' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Timberwolves bench chemistry carried them. Timberwolves' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Garbage time started early.
