In a track meet, the Timberwolves downed the Suns 114-102. Timberwolves controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. The Timberwolves couldn't shake the cold spell; Timberwolves' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. Timberwolves' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
