After Action Report
The Timberwolves handled the Pistons 97-83. The Pistons couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Timberwolves. The Timberwolves owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Timberwolves' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. The Pistons rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
