The Timberwolves ran roughshod over the SuperSonics 132-110. The SuperSonics had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Timberwolves' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Timberwolves' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. 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.
