The Wolves may benefit from implementing big-to-big pick-and-roll plays to disorient the Mavs defense as observed in selective moments during the game. Exploiting favorable matchups for Anthony Edwards and Karl-Anthony Towns could be key, along with introducing a curveball strategy like a hybrid zone defense to keep the Mavs guessing.
