This is the Danemore NBA podcast, brought to you by Blue Wire Podcasts.

0:18.0

It is Tuesday, October 26th. Minnesota Timberwolves are two and one.

0:22.8

They play the Milwaukee Bucks on Wednesday in Milwaukee.

0:26.8

I have Britt Robson, a Minpost here to join me for this episode to just kind of talk

0:32.1

about these three games that have transpired.

0:35.6

I think mostly will probably, well, what is most recently on our minds is what happened in the third game, which was a loss to those pelicans.

0:43.8

Britt, I literally just finished reading your column off of that game and off of what's happened thus far five minutes ago.

1:49.3

And so he's the most valuable player on the team in terms of success this season.

1:56.4

And I was hoping and still have hope.

2:00.6

I mean, people can evolve, but it was disappointing to see yet another game where

2:07.5

Kat played to the refs almost right out of the gate from the opening whistle.

2:14.0

The first time he went went to you know the cup

2:19.5

okoge got a nice rebound perfect outlet pass you know uh half the court length cat caught it
