Summary

On today's show, Dane is joined by Wolves beat writer Chris Hine to discuss Chris' recent article on what Anthony Edwards has done to drive up the volume of free throws he is taking this season. Dane and Chris also get into just how much better the Wolves No. 1 defense has been than even other top-5 defenses in the NBA. Also some conversation on the Wolves schedule lightening up a bit over the next few weeks -- and how that lays out a roadmap to the Wolves potentially finishing as the No. 1 seed in the Western Conference.
