BREAKING DOWN A BREAKDOWN

The Wolves led by three points, then showed how many mistakes can be crammed into 37 seconds:

First: The Wolves allowed Boston a short jumper and two layups before a third layup went in. That's 86-85, 23 seconds left.

Next: The Wolves failed to get an inbounds pass in bounds.

And then: The Wolves gave up a layup that missed and a putback that didn't. It's 87-86, 16 seconds left.

And finally: The Wolves nearly failed on another inbounds pass, then threw one into a double-team. Next came a steal. Final, 87-86
