After Action Report

In a track meet, the Timberwolves ran roughshod over the Rockets 133-109. The Timberwolves got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Timberwolves' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Timberwolves came in with something to prove after a loss. The Timberwolves locker room is humming, and it showed. Garbage time started early.
