Description
On today's pod, Britt Robson (The Athletic) joins to discuss why what Karl-Anthony Towns showed in the first two games is more reason for optimism than the two blowout losses in Los Angeles are reason for pessimism. We unpack Britt's most recent column that acknowledges the devastating, albeit expected, losses but also praises KAT's best defense of his career and Ryan Saunders' ability to expand his coaching blueprint.
From there, we get into what the complicated plan might be in this KAT-less interim. The trappings of the D'Angelo Russell and Malik Beasley pairing. Britt's assertion that Ricky Rubio needs to start. Dane's assertion that Josh Okogie is the path to defensive competence. And just what the heck is going on in the frontcourt -- between Naz Reid, Juancho Hernangomez, Jake Layman and Jarred Vanderbilt.
