After Action Report

In Minnesota, the Timberwolves took care of the Bulls 119-109. Timberwolves' scorers couldn't be contained. Timberwolves' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Timberwolves steamroller is in full effect right now. The Timberwolves locker room is humming, and it showed. Timberwolves' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

What tipped it

  • Timberwolves · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • 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.
  • Bulls · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
