After Action Report
The Timberwolves ran roughshod over the Knicks 121-96. The tempo dragged the Knicks into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Second-chance points piled up for the Timberwolves; Timberwolves' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Timberwolves locker room is humming, and it showed. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
