Summary

On today’s show, we react to the Wolves Game 2 loss in Memphis on Tuesday evening. In a 28-point loss, obviously a lot went wrong for the Wolves. But we try to distinguish if what worked for the Grizzlies in this game are temporary or permanent solutions. Those topics include: — Karl-Anthony Towns’ foul trouble and how that empowered Memphis to effectively go small (taking Steven Adams out of the rotation) — Anthony Edwards’ lack of offensive rhythm and poor shot selection — D’Angelo Russell’s in ability to get his offense going again — After surviving on the glass in Game 1, struggling to defensively rebound in Game 2 — Naz Reid and the minutes KAT is off the floor in this series — The value of being able to go home and play in front of the Target Center crowd Learn more about your ad choices.

0:48.3	I mean, that's Memphis's blueprint to win games in this series.
0:50.7	You know, duplicate that four times and they'll win.
0:56.8	The potential catch there, though, if you're a Grizzlies fan, is that it's probably pretty unlikely that all three of the Wolves big three simultaneously have that type of
1:02.7	letdown in another game and that the others simultaneously won't do their job on the glass and on
1:08.8	the margins. I mean, yes, it's possible that Cat gets in foul trouble in another game
1:14.0	or that Ant struggles with the shot selection again,
