After Action Report

The Timberwolves survived the Bobcats 102-98. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Timberwolves' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Timberwolves answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Timberwolves bench chemistry carried them. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
