After Action Report
In a track meet, the Timberwolves ran roughshod over the Hawks 129-97. The breakneck pace played right into Timberwolves' hands. The Timberwolves steamroller is in full effect right now; Hawks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Timberwolves locker room is humming, and it showed. It was over by halftime.
