In context
Lowehe's been doing it already. Like if I got a small on me randomly, like I'm going right to the rim and they're feeding him the ball.
DuncanYeah, so like they are already, again it's preseason so checking boxes is going to be aggressive but it's like good to see sound process on that front to where we can't hit these slips we can't hit these duck ends or seals already we have some side to side flow with our two star guards and just and i'll also just know i think dame more and others have hit on this it feels like they've already thrown like 30 lobs in
Duncanthe preseason already like the vibes just generally seem to be high and so i'm also glad you hit on kind of the defensive strengths of like the perimeter guys so far like i'm also keeping an eye on how attentive these guys are going to be off the ball because the lineup is constructed in a way that you would imagine there's going to be more switching one through four with rudy kind of roaming the back line it's not enough to
Duncanswitch you still do have to be active you still have to plug gaps still got to be ready for relocations and cuts and things like that it's very early but i've been encouraged that has to sustain as we get into regular season basketball for the wolves but they very much have top three offense top six top seven defense potential so i hope they hit it Did you say top three offense?
DuncanThey can. I think the three -point rate is certainly going to be up there. Anthony Edwards is incredibly good. Lamelle's going to juice the transition attack, and this is a Wolves team that have guys that can get out, but historically haven't been a great transition team throughout this era at the very least.
DuncanI think it's on the table.
