Patrick Reusse on the Timberwolves, Twins TV and a trip down memory lane

On Monday’s Daily Delivery podcast, host Michael Rand and Star Tribune columnist Patrick Reusse broke down the Wolves’ Game 1 victory and set up Game 2. They also talked plenty about the Twins and some more obscure teams from Minnesota’s past.

Star Tribune columnist Patrick Reusse joins host Michael Rand for a look back at the weekend in sports, which of course starts with the Timberwolves’ impressive Game 1 conference semifinal victory over the Nuggets. Anthony Edwards was tremendous, as was the defense. It puts Denver in a must-win situation going into Game 2 on Monday.

Reusse and Rand also get into the Twins’ 12-game winning streak, which ended Sunday, plus the history of past streaks and the mess that is the team’s TV situation.

And somehow a discussion of PWHL Minnesota led to remembering the Minneapolis Lakers.
