After Action Report
The Timberwolves blew the doors off the Trail Blazers 140-114. Timberwolves controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. The Timberwolves answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Timberwolves' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
