After Action Report
The Timberwolves ran roughshod over the Celtics 145-107. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Timberwolves cashed in. Second-chance points piled up for the Timberwolves; Celtics' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends. The Timberwolves locker room is humming, and it showed. Garbage time started early.
