This is the name more NBA podcast brought to you by Blue Wire podcast coming at you Thursday, March 24th, the day after the wolves just lost.

0:22.8

To the Phoenix Suns, I'm joined as I am most Thursdays, I guess, by Britt Robson of Minpost.

0:29.3

Who this morning wrote an article on Anthony Edwards, Britt, we were just talking before

0:36.4

each on the mic's on about how this kind of feels like the story of the moment, at least player specific with this Wolves team right now is, is Anthony Edwards.

0:46.3

And kind of the mystery that surrounds what exactly is going on with him right now.

0:55.3

You dug into that extensively in your column today for people who haven't yet read it.

In fact, if the injury is the entirety of the reason for his decline, then I would say he's doing a marvelous job retaining, you know, what he has.

2:42.0

But does it, don't you kind of wonder what that looks like when Anthony Edwards and Chris Finch sit down in Finch's office and have this conversation.

2:52.3
