Summary

On today’s show, Dane is joined by Jace Frederick from the St. Paul Pioneer Press to take stock of where the Wolves are three games into their five-game road trip. Much of the focus of this episode is on the inconsistency of this team right now and specifically the role Chris Finch can (or can not) be expected to bring in terms of motivation. Topics include... — How much of the Wolves sporadic effort falls on Chris Finch? — Gregg Popovich philosophy on player motivation — What type of wing defender is missing from this Wolves wing roster? — If the Wolves could add any player in the NBA not on a rookie contract who makes between $9 and $11 million, who would you choose?
