Locked On Wolves - Daily Podcast On The Minnesota Timberwolves
The Minnesota Timberwolves may have overpaid for Rudy Gobert, but that does not make them one of the worst three general manager or front office jobs in the NBA. Ben Beecken (@bbeecken) explains why the recent Bill Simmons Podcast episode with Ryen Russillo was off-base with assertion. From Anthony Edwards to the top-level talent of Karl-Anthony Towns and Gobert, the Wolves are clearly in a better situation than several other teams across the league.

Minnesota Timberwolves President of Basketball Operations Tim Connelly traded a massive haul of first-round draft picks in the Rudy Gobert trade, but the Wolves may still have a few more picks in their cache than one might expect.

Locked On NBA Off-Season expert Howard Beck joins Locked On Jazz to talk about his perspective on the Rudy Gobert and Donovan Mitchell trades 11 months after they happened. Considering the success of last year and the findings of Lauri Markkanen and Walker Kessler should the Utah Jazz hit the accelerator? What can be learned from the Denver Nuggets and the Miami Heat or should we take nothing since Nikola Jokic and Jimmy Butler are such outlayers. It is a new NBA with much less discrepency from the top to the bottom and how does that impact how you approach winning in the NBA? Finally what will be the power structure of the West in 2029.

Locked On Wolves - Daily Podcast On The Minnesota Timberwolves
If the Minnesota Timberwolves re-sign free agent big man Naz Reid, it likely will indicate a future Karl-Anthony Towns trade, even if it isn't consummated until next summer. Ben Beecken (@bbeecken) explains why the Wolves' cap situation is tenuous, and while they could survive a season with both bigs (plus Rudy Gobert) still on the roster, things become much trickier for the Timberwolves just a year from now. Towns could be traded now, or the Wolves could wait and see what happens this season before making the ultimate decision next summer.

Locked On Wolves - Daily Podcast On The Minnesota Timberwolves
New Minnesota Timberwolves front office boss Tim Connelly sent out several players over the past year, including in the Rudy Gobert trade last offseason and the Mike Conley move at the trade deadline. Ben Beecken (@bbeecken) takes a look at how they all performed this year, including in the playoffs. D'Angelo Russell and Malik Beasley both had mixed results with the Los Angeles Lakers, while Jarred Vanderbilt and another former Wolf and current Phoenix Sun Josh Okogie, both played well for their respective playoff teams.

The Minnesota Timberwolves paid a king's ransom for Rudy Gobert last summer and proceeded to win fewer games than they did the previous season. While Karl-Anthony Towns' extended absence due to injury was a huge reason for the dip, there were several other things that didn't exactly go to plan. Ben Beecken (@bbeecken) breaks down the three worst and most disappointing things about the Wolves' 2022-23 campaign.

Karl-Anthony Towns missed 52 consecutive games in the middle of the 2022-23 NBA season due to a calf strain, putting a massive damper on his season and a ceiling on what the new-look Minnesota Timberwolves could do in their first year with Rudy Gobert. But when Towns was healthy, he struggled to one of the worst all-around shooting years of his career and career-worst rebound and turnover rates. Ben Beecken (@bbeecken) dives into the numbers to try to decipher what happened, and if a bounce-back is in the cards in 2023-24 for KAT and the Wolves.

Star Tribune columnist Patrick Reusse joins host Michael Rand for a look back at the weekend in sports, which included a Target Field-record 29 runs for the Twins in their three-game series against the Cubs. An offense that was struggling is getting a big boost from Alex Kirilloff's return to health. Reusse and Rand also check in on the NBA playoffs, which included interesting second-round conclusions for the Knicks and 76ers. Also add another voice to the Rudy Gobert "worst trade of all time" chorus. The powerhouse Gophers softball team is in the NCAA tournament again. They've made it to 10 straight, excluding the COVID year of 2020. And Za'Darius Smith was right to put his house on the market, after all.
Introduction: The Twins got a sorely needed 4-3, 11 inning win on Wednesday against the Padres. The offense stalled again, getting just two runs in the first nine innings, but starting pitcher Pablo Lopez was excellent and the Twins got clutch hits in the 10th an 11th innings. It was a further reminder of their identity shift this year. 5:00: Star Tribune columnist Chip Scoggins and St. Paul Academy senior Tommy Verhey join Rand for a practical thought exercise. Rand, with the help of Verhey, put together a completely new Twins lineup comprised almost exclusively of players the Twins have traded in recent years. Plus they talk about recent Karl-Anthony Towns comments about the Rudy Gobert trade and examine Chip's column on sports gambling and college sports. 36:00: Not so fast on that new Phoenix Suns TV deal.

No matter how you slice it, Rudy Gobert's first season with the Minnesota Timberwolves was disappointing. From the cost it took to acquire him to his chemistry issues with the Wolves' guards, it was tough sledding for the majority of the season. Ben Beecken (@bbeecken) takes a dive into the numbers to compare this season to past years in Gobert's career, including some surprising numbers that came up as near-career-worsts for the Stifle Tower. Also, lineup data showing his best and worst pairings on the Timberwolves roster.

Dan is joined by TNT commentator Kenny Smith to talk about his new book and the NBA. Dan asks Kenny if Rudy Gobert and KAT can play on the same team.
Introduction: Host Michael Rand noticed a lot of angst over Jaden McDaniels not being named to an All-NBA defensive team on Tuesday. Rand's thought: McDaniels is good, but his time will come. The bigger takeaway from the defensive voting is that Wolves center Rudy Gobert -- a first-team defensive player the last six years and a Defensive Player of the Year three years -- didn't get a single vote to be on this year's team. It underscores that he was far from being the player the Wolves thought they were getting in last summer's blockbuster trade. 8:00: Star Tribune columnist La Velle E. Neal III joins Rand for a three-part conversation: How long will it take Emanuel Reynoso to be back on the field for Minnesota United? Is it a good thing that Byron Buxton seems to be the long-term DH for the Twins? And how much longer will Dalvin Cook be on the Vikings? 28:00: The Twins' offense is still stuck, but the Loons broke out on Tuesday.

On today's episode, Jason kicks things off with a deep dive into Trae Young's heroic performance to keep the Atlanta Hawks' season alive (38 points, 13 assists and the game-winning three pointer in the final seconds). The Boston Celtics may have melted down a bit down the stretch, but Young still took advantage of it. All the 'Trade Trae Young' jabronis can take a seat after this one! Later, Super Producer Rob G (Robert Guerra) checks in to help preview the upcoming round two showdown between the Phoenix Suns and Denver Nuggets. Devin Booker has been the players in these playoffs and Kevin Durant is still an all-time great, but our guys are both picking Nikola Jokic and the Nuggets to win the series. Sticking in the Western Conference, J-Mac and Rob discuss what comes next for the Minnesota Timberwolves and Los Angeles Clippers after they were both bounced out of the playoffs. Would Minnesota look to deal Karl-Anthony Towns in an effort to fix that ghastly Rudy Gobert deal and re-tool around budding superstar Anthony Edwards? Are the Clippers more likely to push all-in for one last bite at the apple or blow up the Paul George-Kawhi Leonard tandem altogether? Finally, the guys close the show by previewing Wednesday night's NBA Playoffs action.
