After Action Report
The Timberwolves edged the Celtics 120-113. The Timberwolves got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Timberwolves' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; Celtics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. Timberwolves' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
What tipped it
- Celtics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Celtics · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
- Celtics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
