Summary

On today’s show, Dane is joined by Britt Robson from MinnPost to talk about how the Wolves’s defense was exposed by the Kings’s 5-out offense in overtime on Monday night, all while acknowledging that result came in the backdrop of a marvelous January. A marvelous January specifically fueled by the now-unambiguous leap of Anthony Edwards. Topics today range from... — Detailing how the Kings’s 5-out offense exposed the Wolves’s defense and what the Wolves can do to counter spread offenses going forward — Going through what playoff teams in the West might try a spread offense against the Wolves in a playoff series — Anthony Edwards’s excellent January and the growth he’s showing that isn’t fully captured by the box score — Rudy Gobert playing more in the dunker spot — What has fueled D’Angelo Russell’s greatly improved shooting this season, comparing it to the Tyler Herro role in Miami — Where the Ant-DLo-Rudy trio has improved defensively, overtime of the Kings game notwithstanding — What Chris Finch means when he says Jaden McDaniels has “shit in his blood” and the lower-key growth we’ve seen from the Wolves’s other 2020 first round pick Sign up today for a 14-day free trial of Aura’s digital security at Aura.com/Dane Learn more about your ad choices.
