Where do they go from here?
All season, the Timberwolves have been proud of the fact that they can move on quickly from a loss, that they don't let one bad night bleed into the next game.
Saturday's Game 4 will test their mettle like no other loss as they attempt to rebound from a Game 3 collapse that tied for the fourth-largest blown lead (26 points) in NBA postseason history.
The Memphis Grizzlies' 104-95 victory at Target Center gave them a 2-1 lead in the Western Conference first-round playoff series.
The Wolves' attempt to turn things around began shortly after Thursday's calamity, when the two of the team's leaders, coach Chris Finch and point guard Patrick Beverley, came out with a forward-looking, upbeat attitude that ran counter to the anger and disappointment emanating from the fan base.
