This is the pregame locker room availability of swim practice. This is what it is. We go in the locker room pregame and we walk around and people think we're just interviewing people, but we're not. We're just walking around.

Yeah, I agree. And he tried to take that over a little bit late in that game. As you mentioned, more pick and rolls, more isolations against Steven Chenzo. And I think he did a pretty good job getting switches onto him too. There's even a play earlier in that game where he's got Jaden McDaniels on him and he runs around a little pin down and ends up getting it at the top of the key.

And then he ends up going at kind of weaker defenders. The thing is with Minnesota is... They just have an insane amount of strength on the perimeter defensively. Nikhil Alexander Walker is as good. I mean, people talk about McDaniels, who's awesome, and Ant, who fights, and DiVincenzo, who's feisty. Nikhil Alexander Walker is... I love the way that he guards screens.

He gets in this insanely low defensive stance, and he's like a spider. He just springs by a screener, and he always executes the screen coverage properly. He's been struggling with his shot, as every single Timberwolf has, apparently. You want to talk about shot variance, Zach?

The worst shot quality... The most the team has underperformed its shot quality in a single game during the playoffs was Minnesota against the Lakers in that clincher when I think they went one for 100,000 from three. And this is on three-point shot quality. And the second worst was a Memphis game against the Thunder. And then the third worst performance was Minnesota...

game one when they shot five of 29 from three. Eventually, some shots will go in. Eventually, Anthony Edwards is not going to start a game 0 for 11 from the field or whatever he was. Finish strong to his credit. Finish strong to his credit. I do think what Curry's absence allows Minnesota to do is it allows them to make sure that
