Everything makes more sense after a win — at least for a moment. The Minnesota Timberwolves’ 4th quarter comeback against the New York Knicks on Wednesday highlighted what the Wolves are hopefully evolving into. On today’s pod we discuss:
- Chris Finch’s heaping of praise on the “special” defense Jaden McDaniels has been playing lately
- McDaniels’ mean streak propelling him to confront matchups against Luka Doncic, James Harden and Julius Randle
- How the Wolves came back from 11 down in the 4th quarter to squeeze out a cluster of a late-game win in a battle of Anthony Edwards versus Julius Randle
- The budding friendship and on-court synergy of Edwards and Malik Beasley
- Edwards explains how the presence of himself, Beasley and D’Angelo Russell can free Karl-Anthony Towns from the endless cycle of double teams he receives in the post
