On today’s show, Dane is joined by Timberwolves beat writer Jace Frederick from the Pioneer Press to look at the Wolves through the lens of how they matchup against the other expected Western Conference playoff teams. Dane and Jace also get into the latest on Karl-Anthony Towns’s injury timetable and discuss the one fly in the ointment left in Anthony Edwards’s offensive game. Topics include...

— Reacting to Tim Connelly’s public comments on the process of navigating KAT’s calf strain

— Discussing what Rudy Gobert needs in support defensively to be the most impactful version of himself, regardless of how the opponent tries to attack them

— Ranking the expected Western Conference playoff teams from who the Wolves should most want to catch in a playoff series to who they should least want to catch in the playoffs

— Going through the flaws in Ant’s offensive game that he has worked through over the first 2.5 years of his career and the one element of his offensive game that still needs to be ironed out
