On today’s show, Jake Fischer of Bleacher Report joins to highlight the many Minnesota Timberwolves-related anecdotes from his new book “Built To Lose: How The NBA’s Tanking Era Changed The League Forever”. The ties from the Philadelphia 76ers to the Houston Rockets and even to the acquisition of Andrew Wiggins and selection of Karl-Anthony Towns are abundant.

  • Sachin Gupta’s role in The Process with Sam Hinkie
  • The impact the lottery odds flattening might have had on the Timberwolves not tanking this season
  • Flip Saunders motivations going into the 2015 Draft in regards to Jahlil Okafor versus Karl-Anthony Towns
  • And much more
