Summary

On today’s show, Dane is joined by Britt Robson from MinnPost to attempt to attack the topic of what will happen when Karl-Anthony Towns and Rudy Gobert return from injury. The Wolves recent play — a 3-game winning streak at the time of our recording — has been stylistically different, most notably in Anthony Edwards’ play. How the Wolves are able to reintegrate Towns and Gobert to the roll the Wolves are currently on will come to define this season, and maybe the Gobert trade as a whole. Topics include... — Why the KAT and Gobert reintegration will be equal parts tricky and critical to success — How Edwards and Russell have functioned with Naz Reid at center — Might the Wolves try playing the same schematically once KAT and Gobert return? Specifically, might they try Gobert up in coverage to maintain the fly-around mentality? — The hell of a task that Chris Finch has in front of him — Would you give D’Angelo Russell a one-year, $26M extension today?

0:29.1	I said, let's just turn the mics on, start going before we start talking and give it away.
0:33.9	But I'm excited because the wolves have played an enjoyable brand of basketball, these last three games, which feeds a whole bunch of fodder, right?
0:43.8	And just general enjoyment.
0:45.9	Right.
0:46.3	Yet we know change is coming simultaneously with this.
0:51.4	And change can be for the good.
0:53.3	Obviously, a lot of people are concerned about the bad.
0:55.4	That's kind of the philosophical question here.
0:57.9	Obviously, the three wins in a row have come with Rudy Gaubert,
1:01.3	sidelined, Kat as well, who's missed the past 10 games.
1:05.3	And I just really enjoy these type of conversations because it's critical.
1:09.6	Whatever is going to happen right now is going to be definitive in where this team
1:14.5	goes, not just for the rest of this season, but I think really, you know, going forward,
1:20.3	bigger picture.
1:21.1	And it's a change that has to work because if it doesn't work fairly seamlessly within a
1:27.1	reasonable amount of time,
