    No respect for Draymond on the perimeter, allows for more interior crowding

    Is KAT straight up not a liability anymore? This defense is relentless.

    They have like 4 elite defenders in the starting lineup and then bring in Anderson + NAW off the bench. Gobert was anchoring top defense when everyone else was a liability, but these guys are the opposite.

    They were a dark horse team for me because I liked some things I saw from their lineups last year and they impressed me in the playoffs, but I wasn’t expecting this. They are playing another level of defense right now.

    I was watching the Pelicans game, thinking if a good mid-range shooter keeps getting to their spots for good high percentage shots, the defense would be in shambles unless Finchy does major adjustments.

    Then I remembered it happened with Dejounte in Atlanta because, y’know, I blacked-out that game from my memory LOL

      LOL same

      But in that case, Wolves need to employ something other than drop imo. I don’t get why they stuck to drop. I love how at 2:20, they trapped Ingram who is a great midrange shooter. They could have trapped Murray or tried to force the ball out of his hands, disrupt passing lanes with their length and or do some switching. There are other options. I’m fascinated to see what they’ll do against the Suns since they are supposed to be healthy on Wednesday. KD and Booker feast in midrange

    This didn’t even include the crazy sequence where Draymond and Klay were doing their little tiki-taka passing as Klay runs circles around Draymond screens, and KAT and Rudy just absolutely stifled it. Two 7fters being that mobile and trading everything perfectly was beautiful.

      I know I was trying to find that clip and couldn’t find it :/ Also couldn’t remember when it was 😭

      Do you happen to have a clip or remember when it was?

      I also loved the possession when Saric pump faked 3 times standing in front of Rudy at the rim. He hesitated and travelled. I couldn’t figure out where to get that clip either :(

    Besides having Rudy, they have 3 good PoA defenders at 3 different sizes. Having a 6 ft, 6’5 and 6’9 defenders who can pressure the ball and navigate screens is wild. And KAT only has to be a cherry on top in this defense
