After Action Report

The Rockets upended the Timberwolves 113-105. The Timberwolves had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Rockets ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; Timberwolves' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Rockets bench chemistry carried them. Tonight's Timberwolves utilization choices clashed with the team identity. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
