NBA Hall of Famer Rick Barry and award winning journalist Cyrus Saatsaz welcome longtime writer for the San Francisco Chronicle and the publication's newest beat reporter covering the Golden State Warriors, Rusty Simmons, to preview the upcoming NBA season! Rusty revealed why the team brass decided to cut back on spending, resulting in the team not signing Paul Millsap and bungling the Kelly Oubre Jr. situation during the offseason. Rusty provided some insight on what he's been seeing during the team practices, including an update on Klay Thompson's recovery and how James Wiseman's added considerable muscle to his frame. Cyrus asked Rick and Rusty their thoughts on a hypothetical trade where Jonathan Kuminga and Wiseman would be traded to the Minnesota Timberwolves for Karl-Anthony Towns with the conversation shifting to how amazing Moses Moody's looked during the preseason games. The crew made predictions for the upcoming season, Rick presented his new NBT² (Nothing But The Truth) for the week and the show wraps up with what drives Rick and Cyrus crazy.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

On today's show, Dane is back with a takeaways from the Timberwolves preseason opener against the New Orleans Pelicans. Any ideas that the Wolves are entering the season with bad vibes after firing their President of Basketball Operations were squashed with a pretty inspired effort from Anthony Edwards, D'Angelo Russell, Karl-Anthony Towns and the rest of the Wolves.

Matt Stroup, Raphielle Johnson and Steve Alexander take a look at at the NBA's Northwest Division for fantasy purposes, hitting some key questions on the Jazz, Nuggets, Blazers, Timberwolves and Thunder. Among the topics discussed on this episode: a rare feat that Mike Conley pulled off last year (and whether he can repeat it at age 34 this season), Michael Porter Jr.'s status as a potential early-round fantasy pick, and Jusuf Nurkic's attempt to bounce back from a somewhat disappointing 2020-21. Plus, our expectations for Karl-Anthony Towns and Malik Beasley in Minnesota, as well as the upside — and downside — for Shai Gilgeous-Alexander in Oklahoma City.

In this episode of Triple Zeros: Reacting to Thursday Night Football and setting up the Week 4 slate. Among the biggest storylines are Andy Reid's returning to Philadelphia as the Chiefs take on the Eagles for the first time since 2017 and Tom Brady's return to Foxboro as his Tampa Bay Buccaneers take on Bill Belichick and the New England Patriots. Plus the Chicago Bears move to Arlington is big news but secondary to needing a win this weekend as Matt Nagy (and several other coaches) could be feeling the heat. Things turn to the NBA as media day on Monday gave us a ton of soundbites and controversy. Ben Simmons still wants out of Philly and Joel Embiid has thoughts. Karl-Anthony Towns sounds tired of it all, and Zion Williamson insists everything is good down in New Orleans. All of that and much more!

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 Houston Learn more about your ad choices.

Introduction: At the outset of the show, host Michael Rand gives a rundown of the convergence of sports seasons that is happening in this moment. Minnesota United plays Wednesday night and this weekend as it tries to make an MLS playoff push. The Vikings have a huge game Sunday against Cleveland, as do the Gophers against Purdue on Saturday. Would you believe that the Gophers men's hockey season starts this weekend? Gophers men's and women's basketball practice is underway, as is training camp for the Wolves and the preseason for the Wild. Meanwhile, the Lynx would still be playing if they hadn't lost Sunday. And the Twins still have five games left before this season is mercifully done. It ... is ... a lot. 7:00: Timberwolves beat writer Chris Hine joins Rand for a deeper examination of the story lines -- and, let's face it, instability -- that will define this season.

Sachin Gupta, who replaced President Gersson Rosas as the team's top personnel decisionmaker when Rosas was fired last week, has a big task ahead. And what does it all mean for Karl-Anthony Towns, who talked openly Monday about all the change he has seen in his time here.

In this episode of Triple Zeros, recapping Thursday Night Football where the Carolina Panthers beat the Houston Texans 24-9 but also lost Christian McCaffrey to a hamstring injury. How long is yet to be determined. Tua Tagovailoa will miss at least one start while Chicago Bears rookie Justin Fields will make his starting debut against the Cleveland Browns. The Detroit Lions doing Detroit Lions things and Rob Gronkowski cleared the air about his study habits. And of course, picks! Things switch over to some quick NBA talk as Ben Simmons isn't the only star seeking a new situation. Oddly enough, the Minnesota Timberwolves are rumored to be interested but could be dealing with their own disgruntled star player in Karl-Anthony Towns. The situation between Zion Williamson and the New Orleans Pelicans is also deteriorating rapidly. Could any of these players be on the move soon?

Intro: When Twins pitcher Joe Ryan was hit in the hand by a batted ball on Tuesday, fans -- and Ryan himself -- immediately feared the worst.

The NBA Eastern Conference is a blood bath this upcoming season. Do the New York Knicks fill out the top half of the east and do they add a second All-star in either Kemba Walker or a vastly improved RJ Barrett? Giannis, Dirk, or KG?

Lastly, we show love to the Hall of Fame class and is Karl-Anthony Towns a number one option on a playoff team?
