After Action Report
The Timberwolves ran roughshod over the Rockets 128-98. Timberwolves' scorers couldn't be contained. The Timberwolves came in with something to prove after a loss; the Timberwolves bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Timberwolves locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Timberwolves per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Garbage time started early.
