After Action Report
The Timberwolves snuck past the Knicks 101-98. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Timberwolves' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends; Timberwolves' defenders refused to give up clean looks. Timberwolves' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
What tipped it
- Timberwolves · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Timberwolves · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
