How The Wolves Might Matchup With The Thunder In The Season Opener

On today’s show, Dane is joined by Andrew Schlecht — who covers the Oklahoma City Thunder for The Athletic — to discuss the Wolves and Thunder matching up twice in the first three games of the regular season. Not a game preview, but in light of the schedule coming out, this conversation serves as a way to think about how the two teams matchup with each other.

— The Wolves soft schedule to start the season

— How do OKC fans feel about opening the season in Minnesota? Do they think the Wolves are good?

— The Chet Holmgren homecoming angle

— Understanding who exactly is gonna start/be in the rotation for the Thunder?

— Who guards who? How are the Wolves going to matchup with the Thunder and how will the Thunder chose to matchup with the Wolves

— Will Finch put Gobert on Holmgren, and if so, would that be what the Thunder would prefer (pulling Gobert away from the basket)?
