After Action Report

The Timberwolves rolled past the Wizards 120-96. The Wizards had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Timberwolves carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; Timberwolves' defenders refused to give up clean looks. Timberwolves' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. It was over by halftime.
