With Jimmy Butler out and the Timberwolves on a SEGABABA after a blowout loss to the Rockets in Houston, I thought the Bulls had a decent chance of stealing a win on Saturday night in Minnesota. The Bulls were competitive for three quarters, but their offense fell apart amid a barrage of Jamal Crawford 3-pointers to start the fourth quarter and the game turned into a rout. When the dust settled, the Timberwolves earned a 122-104 win.
The Bulls started poorly and fell behind by 12 points in the first quarter, but they reversed course with a monster 38-point second quarter.
