After Action Report
In Minnesota, the Timberwolves demolished the Knicks 117-97. The tempo dragged the Knicks into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Timberwolves' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; the Knicks owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Knicks rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
