After Action Report
The Trail Blazers rolled past the Timberwolves 129-102. Trail Blazers torched the Timberwolves on the offensive end. Trail Blazers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Timberwolves answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Trail Blazers bench chemistry carried them. Tonight's Timberwolves utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Never a doubt in this one.
