MINNEAPOLIS— The Minnesota Timberwolves had absolutely no chance in tonight’s game at New Orleans. Or so I thought.
Coming off a brutal loss to one superstar-less Wizards team, where the starters played a combined one million minutes and let lead after lead slip away, the team was staring at a showdown with Anthony Davis and Demarcus Cousins.
I talked about how the fatigue at the end of the game last night clearly played into the loss. With them having to travel the same night to face a rested Pelican bunch today, I didn’t give much thought to the Wolves winning this game.
