Timberwolves look to crank up defense vs. Pacers | |
When asked about what needs to be fixed about his team's defense, Minnesota Timberwolves coach Tom Thibodeau gave a succinct two-word answer. "A lot," Thibodeau told reporters after Saturday's 140-136 loss in Dallas when Jimmy Butler sat out to rest. Butler is expected to play Monday and the Timberwolves hope to start getting some improved defense when they host the Indiana Pacers. MORE | |
