After Action Report
In Minnesota, the Timberwolves outlasted the Bulls 110-97. Timberwolves controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. Timberwolves' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; Bulls' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends. The Timberwolves locker room is humming, and it showed. Timberwolves' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
