The Minnesota Timberwolves are arguably the worst defensive team in the NBA as they try to survive on defense without Ricky Rubio. I'm not sure Rubio's defensive presence would've mattered much against John Wall Tuesday night. The Washington Wizards' star just dismantled the Wolves' defense in a completely surgical way.
Running the floor, setting guys up in transition, and finding an open Rasual Butler over and over again were the norm for Wall as he dropped 21 points and a career-high 17 assists in their 109-94 victory. That's the second time in five games that he's dished out that career-high of 17 assists.
