I'm your host, Atamadas.

I'm joined by Dane Moore of a minnesota timberwolves podcast

what's it called again dane it's called the dainmore mbba podcast i'm just teasing you of course

my favorite named podcast the dain more uh b a podcast where he breaks down the timbrewolves

he's here in denver covering the series we had a very interesting game one. Minnesota up 11 or 12 points early on. Denver storms back, builds a big lead.
