After Action Report
The Nuggets shocked the Timberwolves 122-101. The tempo dragged the Timberwolves into a rhythm they couldn't survive. You could feel the revenge motivation from the Nuggets; the Timberwolves came in with something to prove after a loss. The Nuggets bench chemistry carried them. Timberwolves' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
