The last time the Timberwolves beat the Celtics in Boston, March 2005, a good portion of the team was just starting to dominate its grade school basketball circuits.
Futility in Boston is something generations of Wolves teams have in common, and it's something this season's squad continued with a 121-109 loss at TD Garden on Friday night.
The Wolves and Celtics traded runs for most of the night until Boston took over in the fourth quarter. The Celtics had 12 second-chance points in the fourth and 20 on the night as they buried the lackadaisical Wolves.
