After Action Report
In Houston, the Timberwolves stunned the Rockets 130-124. The tempo dragged the Rockets into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The Timberwolves pushed the pace until the other side broke; Rockets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Timberwolves bench chemistry carried them. Tonight's Rockets utilization choices clashed with the team identity. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
