After Action Report

The Lakers ran roughshod over the Timberwolves 142-122. The Timberwolves had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Lakers' old heads steadied the ship in the swings; Timberwolves' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.

What tipped it

  • Timberwolves · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Timberwolves · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Timberwolves · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
  • Timberwolves · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
