This is the dayne more Mbaugh podcast brought to you by Blue Wire podcasts coming at

Thursday night after the Timberwolves lost to the Golden State Warriors.

Final score Wolves 115, Warriors 124.

Even in a loss tonight, we got a lot we can get to.

Kat played what I thought was one of his best games of the year, Poison the Post.

We unfortunately also have to talk about D'Ango Russell getting hurt tonight, what life might look like if Dilo is to miss some time here.

We should out on Jared Vanderbilt too.

We've seen Vando play like this all season, but he really showed out tonight on the national stage, just doing his thing.

And I think people nationwide, they got to see what Vando's been doing all year in Minnesota.

And then also three-point shooting. We'll hit on that too. The wolves only made 23% of their

threes tonight while the Warriors hit 58% of theirs. I do want to start with Cat, though.

He's a player because he is so good that I feel like I tend to pick at knits with him. And even though

this performance from Kat came in a loss, I still want to lead with it because I want to give

him credit. I don't think I have any knits to pick with that performance from Kat. I thought the first

half from him was as much poise as we've seen from Kat in any game this season while he was just kind of working in the post.

It wasn't just dominating physically, but he was doing it with, he was being dominant with Kraft.

We, we know how the game plan goes with Kat. Like teams are either going to load up on him with that weird

floating double or they're going to try and defend him straight up and trying to defend cat straight up

with one man like the warriors did tonight is just straight up a bad idea cat is proving that every time

every time a team has tried to come out and guard Kat that way,

every time Kat punishes it in the first half,

and then we see the team go away from it in the second half.
