After Action Report

The Timberwolves buried the SuperSonics 135-114. Timberwolves' offense had its way with the SuperSonics. You could feel the revenge motivation from the Timberwolves; the Timberwolves bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Timberwolves bench chemistry carried them. 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.

What tipped it

  • SuperSonics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • SuperSonics · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Timberwolves · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
  • Timberwolves · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
