"Teams that are getting ready to play the Thunder going forward, they are going to install that." 😳 —Brian Windhorst on what led to the Timberwolves' 24-point 4th-quarter comeback against OKC Monday 👀

@WindhorstESPN Jaden Mcdaniels was looking like KD out there also lbvs.

@WindhorstESPN Avg NBA media overreacting

@WindhorstESPN “Teams are going to replicate having Hartenstein and Chet not play”

@WindhorstESPN A lot of teams try the zone vs OKC. Utah recently got destroyed playing zone 80% of the game. The heat played zone a lot vs us. Big difference is Chet and IHart destroy zone defense. Chet missed the entire game and IHart missed the 2nd half last night.

@WindhorstESPN Good luck deploying a 2-3 zone with Chet at the high post and Hartenstein in the dunker spot. Won’t work.

@WindhorstESPN the thunder simply let their foot off the gas pedal thinking the game was over when wolves brought out their bench players. Thunder dominated the wolves the entire game.

@WindhorstESPN I’m surprised more teams don’t utilize zone defenses specially in the current NBA with so many 3 point shots per game. It’s a copy cat league the playoff push is on 100% more teams going to go zone but you need the right lateral movement players to be successful!

@WindhorstESPN Teams are ready to play “REFS”*** going foward.

@WindhorstESPN Damn.. Teams have a Naz/Ant/NAW laying around to install "that"???

@WindhorstESPN There going to install okc not having Chet or IHart?? Also timberwolves have fallen coz of injuries. Have okc not had any?? Crazy that the only discourse OKC gets on national media is how no one’s worried about them
