YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheWolvesWatchPodcast Well, that was a pretty good way to start the season. The Wolves beat Miami 131–106, Anthony Edwards dropped 45 points and nine threes, and LaMelo Ball put up 21 points in his Minnesota debut. Meanwhile, Giannis scored 35 in his first game for the Heat, and it still wasn't close.

Watch on YouTube: ⁠https://www.youtube.com/@TheWolvesWatchPodcast The first full Timberwolves episode of the season is here. Dan and Rikki react to everything that came out of Wolves Media Day, including the “good vibes” around the team, the players’ renewed commitment to defense, and whether what we heard actually changes how we feel about the season. We talk roster construction, Jaden McDaniels and Jonathan Kuminga fitting into the Wolves’ best group, why this team reminds Rikki of some of the Chris Paul-era Rockets and Suns teams, and why so many players seem genuinely excited to be in Minnesota. Plus: GOATEE RUDY, Jaylen Clark’s surprisingly great interview, Trey Lyles in the hyperbolic chamber, and Jaden McDaniels asking the important question: What Would Rudy Do?

Watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheWolvesWatchPodcast The Wolves Watch is a podcast about the Minnesota Timberwolves and the NBA, hosted by longtime friends Dan and Rikki. We've been watching the Wolves together since 2008 and recording the conversation since 2019. Come hang out with us. This week, Dan and Rikki go through the Western Conference and make their over/under picks for every team heading into the 2026-27 season.

The Wolves Watch is officially live on YouTube! For our inaugural livestream, Dan and Rikki work through the Eastern Conference's over/under win totals ahead of the 2026–27 NBA season. Are the Knicks and Celtics still regular-season juggernauts? Can the Sixers' collection of stars actually fit together? Is Toronto's addition of Kawhi Leonard a steal? And what happens when teams like Detroit, Orlando, Milwaukee, and Brooklyn face a changing NBA incentive structure? We cover every team in the Eastern Conference, make our projections, and find plenty of places to disagree—including some very strong opinions about Philadelphia. Coming Sunday: Eastern Conference Over/Unders, Part II—the Western Conference edition. Watch and join the conversation on YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/@TheWolvesWatchPodcast
