On Wednesday night at Capital One Arena in downtown Washington D.C., the Minnesota Timberwolves looked to snap their seven-game losing streak against the Washington Wizards and bounce back from their embarrassing 128-125 loss to the Charlotte Hornets.
Chris Finch seemed to understand the importance of shaking off what happened Monday night at Target Center as just not even a minute into the game as the Wolves coach called timeout after two defensive miscues led to two dunks for the Wizards.
After the timeout, the Wolves defense settled into the game only allowing 20 more points over the remaining 11 minutes of the quarter as the Wolves led by six after the first frame.
