After Action Report
In Miami, the Timberwolves demolished the Heat 116-96. Timberwolves' offense had its way with the Heat. You could feel the revenge motivation from the Timberwolves; Timberwolves' defenders refused to give up clean looks. Whispers of a Heat locker-room rift aren't helping. The Heat rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Heat · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Heat · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Timberwolves · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
