2021/05/06

Anthony Edwards might have played the best game of his young career on Wednesday night. On tonight’s pod we dig into Edwards’ very-full (not empty) 42-point performance against the Grizzlies — that was completely absent of the rookie mistakes that have plagued much of the rookie’s first year in the league. Putting the 30-game run Edwards is on since the All-Star break into perspective. - It’s time to remove the “inefficient scorer” label from Edwards game. The stats back it up. Looking at Edwards’

With what is now a four-game winning streak, the comparison between the momentum this Timberwolves team is generating and the momentum the Phoenix Suns generated in last season’s Bubble is becoming less outlandish.

2021/04/28

I’ve been toying with an idea: Is Karl-Anthony Towns playing the best basketball of his career? Better than his post-All Star break run during the 2018-19 season? Better than the first 18 games of the 2019-20 season when he led the Timberwolves to a 10-8 start? On today’s pod, we dig into that question. Also: Jarred Vanderbilt’s impact in tonight’s win over the Houston and how he might fit into the Wolves’ big picture. And then we check in on the Flab Five tanking standings. (Yes, I’m calling it

If the Timberwolves ever won consecutive games again this season, I promised Kyle Theige (CanisHoopus) that he could come on the pod to celebrate the winning “streak”. Is it a streak if you win two in a row? Sure. The Wolves hadn’t won consecutive games since Christmas. In Wolves World, that’s worth celebrating. We discuss: - How both wins over the Jazz were a carbon copies of one another, and how the Wolves no longer feel dead in the water when they fall down by 15 points early in the game - Is

It’s normally after a Timberwolves loss where questions about the big picture enter the frame. But Tuesday’s win over the Kings left me wondering about the long-term prospects of the Timberwolves defense. Asking the question: How concerned should we be about the Wolves defense? We also saw the upside of the Wolves “outscore you” strategy, and dig into the intrigue there. - Anthony Edwards and D’Angelo Russell going off on the offensive end but leaving much to be desired on the defensive end - How

All good things come to an end. On Sunday night, the Timberwolves one-game winning streak was snapped by the Los Angeles Clippers, and Naz Reid’s 695-shot streak of having never taken a midrange jumper also came to sad end. In remembrance, on today’s pod, we take a look at the shots being taken under Chris Finch. - Yet another blowout loss against one of the league’s premier teams * Including explanation for why the Wolves haven’t been able to hang (audio included) - A look into the shots

If the Minnesota Timberwolves core players are Karl-Anthony Towns, D’Angelo Russell, Anthony Edwards, Malik Beasley and Jaden McDaniels, who of the other 10 players on the roster make sense to be on the team next season?

2021/04/08

Since Chris Finch took over as the head coach, Karl-Anthony Towns has frequently been defending on the perimeter, guarding big wings — and is playing some of his best individual defense of his career. What if this became a full-time thing? What if the Timberwolves traded for Myles Turner? On today’s pod, after surrendering 141 points to the short-handed Indiana Pacers, we discuss what needs to change for the Wolves defensively, and ask if trading for Turner is a path worth considering. - Anthony
