Summary

In the Timberwolves second-to-last game of the season, they seemed to run out of whatever good vibes they were running on. Saturday’s loss to the Celtics signaled much of the good JuJu that had been fueling team has either expired or been put on ice until next year — but it also opened up a chance to greatly improve their lottery odds in the final game of the season against Dallas. On today’s pod we discuss: - How the Timberwolves lottery odds will be impacted by Sunday’s results - Another disappointing loss for a team that is “not a tanking team” - Decision time for Rosas on the Rubio and DLo pairing. Does it matter that the Rubio-DLo numbers have been better under Finch than they were under Saunders? - How deciding Jaden McDaniels’ position is a sliding door decision for the Wolves this summer Sign up for Dane's Patreon ($5 a month) at: Patreon.com/DaneMooreNBA Learn more about your ad choices.

Tonight's was by 16 points to a depleted Boston Celtics team that rested many of

for you today on the pod. This is what I'm thinking. Let's one talk a little bit about a team
