Jim and Todd talk about the Timberwolves preseason so far. Was their main weakness exposed by Detroit? The Dodgers are in danger of being swept by the Brewers. Ohtani looks lost. What is the Twins…
Jim SouhanGuestTodd BergethHostThey were up against a good team from the east in the Detroit Pistons, and a big and physical team, uh, with Duran and others who can, uh, really be physical, and they kinda beat the Timberwolves up a little bit.
This has to be, I think, probably the number one concern for this team is where are they gonna get the, the rebounding and the physical, uh, the defensive, uh, rebounding and so forth.
Uh, we don't know how he's gonna match up if he has to play heavy minutes against real NBA teams.
Uh, f- balancing playing hard, going after everything, and staying out of foul trouble, that's gonna be a big key to his young career.
Last night, the Wolves scored 38 points in the first quarter against, again, as you said, a very good defensive team.
The starters lit it up in the first quarter, and honestly after that, they just played lousy.
And I, you know, part of it was they started mixing up the rotations, started mixing in some deep bench players.
So, uh, I think you saw a glimpse of what this offense can be in the first quarter, and then you saw bad basketball after that.
