After Action Report
The Timberwolves blew the doors off the Grizzlies 126-86. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Timberwolves cashed in. The Timberwolves owned the glass, generating extra possessions; shots just aren't falling for the Timberwolves lately. The Timberwolves locker room is humming, and it showed. Grizzlies' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Garbage time started early.
