After Action Report

The Timberwolves snuck past the Spurs 117-113. The Spurs had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Timberwolves couldn't shake the cold spell; Timberwolves' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Spurs looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. The Spurs rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
