After Action Report
The Clippers buried the Timberwolves 117-77. The tempo dragged the Timberwolves into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The Clippers carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. The Clippers bench chemistry carried them. The Timberwolves rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. It was over by halftime.
