A few nights ago, after a rather impressive victory over defending NBA champion Denver, Timberwolves coach Chris Finch chose to challenge a challenge over the usual compliments:
Do it again, he said.
Stack some victories, repeat the good effort, continue to move the ball. And that brings us to Target Center on Saturday against a Utah team that had lost three of four coming into Minneapolis.
The Wolves, led by Karl-Anthony Towns, broke open a tie game with a 15-2 run in the third quarter on the way to a 123-95 victory, the team's second straight and the Wolves' first winning streak of the young season.
