After Action Report
The Pistons handled the Timberwolves 109-97. Pistons' scorers couldn't be contained. Pistons' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; Timberwolves' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. Whispers of a Timberwolves locker-room rift aren't helping. Survive-and-advance type win.
What tipped it
- Timberwolves · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
