Where were you when Joe Ingles tickled the twine on two straight mid range jumpers?

Felt like the Wolves pivoted to a pretty natural place last night in the absence of Anthony Edwards.
Lift the defensive intensity and connectivity, ramp up the pace, and then let their scorers capitalize on those things.
Here's how:

@JakePaynting Need a 20 minute breakdown detailing Jaden’s hate for Booker

Really important win there for the Wolves. Lots of fun things.
Give me your favorite thing and I might break it down for Howls And Growls tonight ⬇️
English
@BrandonBeck4 Yeah he’s been insanely good defensively without really hurting them offensively
English
Very fun game for a lot of guys here. Randle at the top of that list, but the periphery guys all contributing as well.

Mike Conley this season has been the biggest beneficiary in terms of minutes when Anthony Edwards doesn't play, but that was pre-trade deadline.
Expect Julius, Jaden, Ayo, Donte to shoot considerably more, with Naz and Julius to score more efficiently on higher volume.
English
The Wolves have a -33.6 net rating when Rudy Gobert and Kyle Anderson play together.
They've ran that duo in every game.
They were a -10 together last night in a 13 point loss.
This all feels predictably untenable.
Here's why:

Thought there was legitimacy in playing SloMo in a specialized role in the non-Gobert minutes, but didn’t think Finch would fall back into his bad SloMo habits so readily.
25 minutes with Gobert in 5 games (-24.9 net rating) before tonight’s disaster. Just not a good pairing.
English
I think Gobert having a really bad night in like 90% of the games against these western conference playoff teams is an under the radar issue. Been completely ineffective against OKC, SAS, HOU, DEN and LAL.

Anthony Edwards was in his post-up bag last night.
Not only is that a testament to his improvement in that area this season, it brings a different element to Minnesota's offense that they really need right now.

Really liked this lineup. Had only played a single possession together before tonight, but it makes sense to me in a bunch of different ways and I hope we see it sprinkled in a bit more regularly going forward.

Rudy Gobert almost always shares the floor with at least one of Naz Reid or Julius Randle -- Gobert has played 4137 possessions this season, and only 68 of those possessions have come with both Randle and Reid on the bench. But tonight, Finch appears to be closing with both Randle and Reid on the bench. An interesting closing lineup that accounted for how small Golden State was playing while still keeping Gobert's size out there. Gobert McDaniels Dosunmu Edwards DiVincenzo
English
Gobert shut off Golden State's water offensively in the last quarter here. They'd been rolling while he was on the bench but he's putting out fires everywhere right now.
English
@ChrisLoupos Same man. I feel like they could really work that into their plans more often like this.
English
@JakePaynting Love having them spam the shit out of him in the post
English
In the last two seasons, McDaniels has averaged 19.6 points per game (22 games) when one of Randle or Edwards isn't playing.
There's a usage and I think mental block there for him when he plays next to two high usage guys that just seems to go away when he's forced to do more.
Shea Butter@ButtaSports
I wish Jaden would just decide for himself he’s going to be the 2nd option offensively on the team and show the world how gifted he truly is when he is aggressive and confident We need Jaden McBuckets to go and take that role instead of waiting for it
English
Y’all are awesome, man.

A minuscule achievement in the grand scheme of things, but one nonetheless. Appreciate everybody who has subscribed over the offseason. We’re gonna get this thing pumping this season. @howlsandgrowlshoops?si=J2t6eYveIeRTmpuc" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">youtube.com/@howlsandgrowl…
