Timberwolves' balanced five covered every spot on the floor; the Timberwolves carried the swagger of a recent blowout 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. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
