Britt Robson On Chris Finch's Plan For Fixing The Defense + Training Camp Breadcrumbs - a podcast by Dane Moore
from 2021-10-01T00:10:31
On today’s show, Britt Robson of The Athletic joins the show to discuss his story on Chris Finch’s plan for fixing the Timberwolves story. Britt and Dane discuss Britt’s reporting on the story — including interviews with Finch, Elston Turner, Jaden McDaniels, amongst other — and just what Timberwolves fane should expect in terms of Finch’s plan to make the Wolves at least a mediocre defensive team. Additionally, Dane and Britt go into some of the other breadcrumbs that have fallen out of the first three days of Timberwolves training camp.
— How Finch has used the Denver Nuggets defensive model with Nikola Jokic as a guideline for what the Wolves will be running— The differences between this scheme and what Tom Thibodeau and Ryan Saunders ran, and what this will ask of Karl-Anthony Towns and the rest of the roster
— The importance of the defensive “low man” role that Jarred Vanderbilt, Jaden McDaniels and Taurean Prince will need to fill— Other audacious Finch plans. Plans that carry a risk, but, if executed, could increase the Wolves ceiling
— The Timberwolves being one of the smallest teams in the NBA, and new defensive coordinator Elston Turner’s experience coaching a smaller roster in HoustonLearn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
