Second-chance points piled up for the Timberwolves; Timberwolves' outside barrage was a constant threat. The Timberwolves bench chemistry carried them. Timberwolves' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.

What tipped it

  • Nets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Timberwolves · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Timberwolves · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
