  1. I wish someone would shoot well against the timberwolves…feel like having the league's best defense has a part to play in why teams shoot poorly against then. This was never stated in this pod segment.

  2. Blaming poor opponent shooting as if Jaden isn’t a beast who defends every teams best player and lowers their shooting, then when he goes to bench NAW is there to hound them. It’s not off nights from other teams, it’s all around great D from the wings around Rudy.

    These Wolves are the 2020-21 Utah Jazz with Ant instead of Donovan, KAT upgrading Bojan and Jaden upgrading Oneale.

  3. During a conversation about their #1 defense, did that guy just say "teams are shooting really poorly against the Timberwolves, I want to see teams shoot well against the Timberwolves before I say the Timberwolves are good"?

  4. Who would have thunk that the #1 defense in the league would cause poor shooting, durrrr. What a f’ing idiot lol

  5. That's how san antonio had the best defense in 2016. All 82 games the opponents shot poorly 😂

  6. Saying that the #1 defense (by a lot) has been pretty good is pretty casual sounding 😅

  7. Teams aren’t making open shots against the wolves because they are getting worked the whole game. Credit the wolves for not letting teams find their rhythm

  8. Who is this Seth guy and what is he talking about?

    Is it not the excellent defense by Rudy, Ant, Jaden McDaniels, KAT, NAW and Kyle Anderson!?!?

    How do you put this down to luck that shooting percentages are down? Watch the game, the Wolves are literally hounding teams on the perimeter, over pressing and forcing players to take contested 3 point shots or force inside against Rudy.

  9. Wait til someone has a good shooting night against them first?? 😂😂😂 🤡 that’s why they’re the best Defense in the league
