Everything seemed to fall the New Orleans Pelicans' way Friday night, as they scored 80 points in the first half and beat the Minnesota Timberwolves 139-91.
The Timberwolves experienced the proverbial adding of insult to injury, losing to the Orlando Magic in overtime after point guard Ricky Rubio left the game with a sprained ankle.
Kevin Martin hit a would-be game winning three-pointer with just seconds remaining, but Chicago's Jimmy Butler drew a foul and hit both free throws to give the Bulls a 106-105 victory.
