Until last night’s win in Brooklyn, the Timberwolves hadn’t won on the road since early April, hadn’t outscored an opponent in regulation on the road since early March, hadn’t outscored a 2014 playoff team in regulation on the road since January.
Minnesota should feel good about beating the Nets in Brooklyn without needing an extra period to do it.
So you can understand why Ricky Rubio would have been a little rattled by Nikola Pekovic saying, “We’re going to forget this win.”
