In a track meet, the Timberwolves ran roughshod over the Grizzlies 151-117. The breakneck pace played right into Timberwolves' hands. Timberwolves' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Timberwolves carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one. The Timberwolves locker room is humming, and it showed. Timberwolves' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Garbage time started early.
