I have been thinking a lot about what happened in Game 1 on Sunday in Houston. Here are 10 quick thoughts about the game and the series moving forward:
1. The Wolves did an excellent job on the glass, an area they can help close the gap on an elite pace and space team like the Rockets. They won the battle of the boards, 47-37, in the first game of the series and need to keep crushing Houston in the rebounding column. Getting second chance opportunities will be key; they had 11 offensive rebounds in Game 1.
