What's the opportunity cost, if any, of Minnesota waiting on LeBron James to make his decision. Talked with @brittrobson about that and the internal options the Wolves have to play PF if LeBron in fact does not come to Minnesota. Original post

Thought this was a good take from @ChristopherHine on the relativity of being a "winning player" versus a "losing player". Chris, who has covered Andrew Wiggins, Karl-Anthony Towns, Anthony Edwards (and now LaMelo Ball), knows those labels can change quickly. Original post

Talked with @ChristopherHine about his interview with Chris Finch in Vegas. And here we got into what Chris thinks excites Finch most about the LaMelo Ball addition. Original post

Good question from @adukeMN, asking Isaiah Evans why he chose the number the 33. "I just need a constant reminder. I need a chip on my shoulder every day I wake up. When I put this jersey on, it's a subtle reminder." (Evans was the 33rd pick in the draft.) Original post

Joan Beringer had an impressive first summer league game. But Zyon Pullin has clearly been the Wolves' best player out here -- and one of the best players in the entire summer league. Original post

Today's show w/ @KyleTheige - Joan Beringer's summer league opener + Beringer's importance this season (3:00) - What we saw from Rocco Zikarksky, Zyon Pullin, Trey Kaufman-Renn + Enrique Freeman (19:00) - Is this Wolves team going to win 50+ games next season? (38:00) Original post

Some thoughts I had about 6'11" Joan Beringer "playing the 4" next to 7'4" Rocco Zikarsky for the summer league Wolves. And what from this experiment could actually be relevant for next season. Original post

Today's show w/ @JaceFrederick - The LeBron James holding pattern (3:00) - Which teams in the West have gotten better/worse this offseason? (28:00) - What is most intriguing about the Wolves summer league squad? (55:00) Original post

Big week. Thanks for listening. Not sure how we dropped a spot ha. But 8th-most listened to basketball podcast in the world feels pretty good. Original post

Was great to have @brittrobson back on the show today Original post

I've told this story before. But thought it made sense to share again, with the departure of Naz Reid. Original post

At a minmum, LaMelo Ball is going to have a big impact on the energy Anthony Edwards has to burn during the course of a game -- and the course of the season. Original post

A key is LaMelo helping Rudy on offense as much as Rudy is going to protect LaMelo on defense. Original post

Here's @JaceFrederick on how Anthony Edwards is going to benefit from playing next to LaMelo Ball. Did you know Anthony Edwards led the league on catch-and-shoot 3p% last season? Original post

Asked @tmetcalf11 about the caliber of shooter he sees Wolves 2nd round draft pick Isaiah Evans to be. Also great context in here about why Evans shot 42% from 3 his freshman year and 36% from deep as a sophomore. Original post

Well, I guess we’ll see if this is right Original post

The skillsets this Wolves team was clearly lacking, LaMelo Ball possesses. Original post

Today's show w/ @KyleTheige - The Wolves get LaMelo Ball + The 2nd timeline is here (2:00) - Still needing a PF + How might the Wolves round out the rest of the roster (23:00) Original post

Here's what Anthony Edwards's future in Minnesota looks like from a salary cap and what he can get paid standpoint. Original post

I think next season in Minnesota, now without Julius Randle, the Wolves are really going to need to reimagine how they play offense next season. Original post

Chris Finch on the Micah Nori hiring in Portland... "I just know this: There's 30 of these jobs. They're hard to get." Original post

Talked about the Wolves being $33M beneath the 1st apron and how they now have a $33M trade exception from the Julius Randle trade. Original post

Compared the 5 year, $112M contract Ayo Dosunmu just signed to similar contracts around the league. Original post

Talked with @JaceFrederick about what trade exceptions are and are not in the NBA right now -- and how it's relevant to the $33M trade exception the Wolves generated in the Julius Randle trade. Original post

My thoughts on Derrick White as an option for Minnesota. Original post

Asked @KyleTheige what his offseason plan would look like if he was running the Wolves Original post

I was already in on Sergio De Larrea, but now just learned his nickname in Spain is “Larry” Original post

Am I wrong here, or are early 2nd round picks now pretty clearly more valuable than late 1st round picks? Original post
