Wolves 121, Mavericks 87: Just Like Old Times

A life-sucking, low energy, fatigue-generating performance at Target Center against a team that had no business looking like they were on the same playing field.
The Mavs went into Wednesday down Kyrie Irving, Luka Doncic, Dante Exum, and Dereck Lively. It was sure to be a heavy dose of Wolves killer Tim Hardaway Jr. (16.3 points per game in his career against the Wolves).
