On today’s show, Britt Robson of The Athletic joins the show to discuss his story on Chris Finch’s plan for fixing the Timberwolves story. Britt and Dane discuss Britt’s reporting on the story — including interviews with Finch, Elston Turner, Jaden McDaniels, amongst other — and just what Timberwolves fane should expect in terms of Finch’s plan to make the Wolves at least a mediocre defensive team. Additionally, Dane and Britt go into some of the other breadcrumbs that have fallen out of the first three days of Timberwolves training camp. — How Finch has used the Denver Nuggets defensive model with Nikola Jokic as a guideline for what the Wolves will be running — The differences between this scheme and what Tom Thibodeau and Ryan Saunders ran, and what this will ask of Karl-Anthony Towns and the rest of the roster — The importance of the defensive “low man” role that Jarred Vanderbilt, Jaden McDaniels and Taurean Prince will need to fill — Other audacious Finch plans. Plans that carry a risk, but, if executed, could increase the Wolves ceiling — The Timberwolves being one of the smallest teams in the NBA, and new defensive coordinator Elston Turner’s experience coaching a smaller roster in Houston Learn more about your ad choices.
