The Minnesota Timberwolves executed a perfect defensive plan as they shut down Nikola Jokic and the defending champion Denver Nuggets. Ben Beecken (@bbeecken) explains how the Wolves got it done, including Karl-Anthony Towns’ strong two-way game, Rudy Gobert’s continued strong start to the season, and the adversity that both KAT and Anthony Edwards overcame during the game.

Is there a way to hear the post game podcast the night of, or is the next day the way you guys are going this year?
I love this version of KAT. He was out there fighting for rebounds, playing defense and fighting for easy buckets under the rim and attacking instead of just hanging out and taking jumpers the whole game. I think this is where he can really help the team flourish. They beat the piss out of the nuggets with their size and length. This is what Connelly's vision was for being a tough team in the west. Playing bully ball and knocking other teams around with size and being physical. People who don't know anything about basketball will say good offense beats good defense but the celtics and warriors went to the finals being the #1 and #2 in defense respectively. All of the best teams are tough on defense. Miami scrapped their way through to the finals with ferocious defense. It can carry a team.
Everything clicked last night. Big shout out to Mike Conley for what he did in the 3rd quarter to keep our squad in it.
Denver was a bit fatigued, but a good Wolves win regardless.
ANT played fine, but he was the worst of the 5 starters. Definitely not a stud this game. I am loving his improved FT shooting so far.
The Wolves are so lucky to have Naz Reed
