After Action Report

The Timberwolves snuck past the 76ers 111-106. The better team simply showed up tonight. Timberwolves' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Timberwolves' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. Early returns: the Timberwolves per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
