On today’s show, Dane is joined by Chris Hine from the Star Tribune to discuss a loss so bad to the Portland Trailblazers that you can’t help but deeply question the trajectory of this team as currently constructed. With that, topics today include...

— Were the 52 games the Wolves played without Karl-Anthony Towns at all relevant to solving the puzzle at hand?

— Why this season has made conversations about a potential Karl-Anthony Towns trade not seem inappropriate

— If you have to play offense one way with Gobert, can KAT, Ant and Rudy all do it together?

— Are the Wolves pot-committed to a bad hand?

— With lots of negative focus on Towns and Gobert, how much of this season is also on Edwards and Finch?

— Chris discusses what went into getting the quote from Gobert about the officiating when he was in Phoenix on Wednesday
