About this episode
The Minnesota Timberwolves defensive scheme is officially changing under Chris Finch. We saw the early signals of change in the first game after the All-Star break against the New Orleans Pelicans on Thursday and saw a whole new level of change against the Portland Trailblazers on Saturday. On today’s pod we get into the breadcrumbs of the change and why it’s important. The Wolves history of awful team defense in Karl-Anthony Towns’ career Finch believing a “bend but don’t break” defensive philosophy is not best for this roster (audio included) Finch’s willingness to use KAT as a perimeter defender and how that shifts the Wolves defensive balance KAT’s excitement level for doing something defensively he’s always felt he could do but has never been asked to do (audio included) Juancho Hernangomez and Jaylen Nowell making cases to be a part of the rotation going forward Sign up for Dane's Patreon ($5 a month) at: Patreon.com/DaneMooreNBA Learn more about your ad choices.
