On today’s podcast, Britt Robson of The Athletic joins the show to discuss the Minnesota Timberwolves’ downward spiral that has followed their explosion in Phoenix. A week that began with a loss to the Thunder at home, a blowout against the Mavericks, a standing pat trade deadline, a win that felt like a loss against the Rockets, and a blowout against the Rockets in the rematch. We discuss: - Deflating losses that point back to questions about leadership - How the Wolves could pivot off of their core of Towns, Russell, Edwards and Beasley if that is deemed necessary - Jaden McDaniels and the future of the power forward position - A bottom of the league rampant with tanking and the Wolves mired in the mix of it - Monday’s opponent, the Brooklyn Nets, and their championship odds - Britt’s three MVP candidates versus Dane’s three MVP candidates Submit your Blue Wire Hustle application here: http://bwhustle.com/join Sign up for Dane's Patreon ($5 a month) at: Patreon.com/DaneMooreNBA Learn more about your ad choices.
