Don't look now, but the Minnesota Timberwolves, who have been largely written off for the better part of this season, are looking like a team that could once again pose real playoff problems a year after making their Western Conference finals run.

A familiar scene played out Wednesday evening in Denver: The Timberwolves ran the Nuggets off the floor. Minnesota dominated its 115-95 victory from start to finish to improve to 3-0 this season against Denver. The Wolves have beaten Nikola Jokic and Co. five straight times dating back to last year’s second-round playoff series.
