After Action Report
The Pistons buried the Timberwolves 143-90. Pistons' offense had its way with the Timberwolves. The Pistons carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one; the Timberwolves couldn't shake the cold spell. The Pistons bench chemistry carried them. Never a doubt in this one.
