After Action Report
The Timberwolves ran roughshod over the Rockets 143-89. The Rockets had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Rockets' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends. The Timberwolves locker room is humming, and it showed. The Rockets rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. It was over by halftime.
