After Action Report

In Phoenix, the Timberwolves ran roughshod over the Suns 126-92. The Timberwolves got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Timberwolves owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Timberwolves pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Timberwolves bench chemistry carried them. Tonight's Suns utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Never a doubt in this one.
