After Action Report
The Timberwolves pulled away from the Trail Blazers 114-100. Timberwolves' scorers couldn't be contained. Timberwolves' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Timberwolves bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Trail Blazers looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger.
What tipped it
- Timberwolves · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Trail Blazers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Trail Blazers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
