SAN FRANCISCO – For the first 24 minutes Sunday night, the Timberwolves couldn't get out of their own way against the Golden State Warriors.
They committed too many turnovers and they allowed the Warriors to grab too many offensive rebounds. The Wolves led by three at halftime, but the game was in their control; if they cleaned up their issues they could win easily.
The Wolves once again showed why this season might be different from years past, as they came out with a renewed focus in the second half and pulled away in the third quarter for a 116-110 victory, their sixth consecutive win.
