They’ve been aggressive. They’ve got above average or elite personnel at every position defensively, with the possible exception of Towns, but he’s been much improved defensively as well this year. They been running good schemes, covering each other’s backs, rotating on the perimeter, getting in passing lanes and playing phenomenal on ball defense. Jaden McDaniels is criminally underrated. I don’t understand how he wasn’t in the dpoy conversation last year. He guards the best player on the opposing team almost every night and really throws them off their game.

Their frontcourt is huge: KAT at PF and Gobert at Center. Gobert is known as a defensive center, and he contributes 14 points a game for a 38 mil salary. I think that’s a good chunk of it, but I don’t know the Wolves well
