Worse, they weren't good on defense either.

The guy I want us to go out and get is Detroit's Monte Morris. He's a good PG at a reasonable price. Detroit is going nowhere give them Moore, J Mac, Shake, or TB Jr plus a second rd pick.

Gobert, Naz, TBJ, Milton, JMcL will at least space the floor better and a little quicker on D.

Wolves really make the same dumb mistakes and the only constants the past three years are Kat, Ant and Finch. ant is going nowhere and Kat is probably staying also unless a desperate team overpays for him but Finch? What are fans scared to lose by firing the guy? The excuse of wanting continuity isn’t working because they make the same dumb mistakes still.it’s time for the Timberwolves and their fans to have higher standards for head coaching.

Watch the 2nd quarter of the Knicks game. That is the reason.

We have some issue to fix clearly. Too many bad 4th quarter from Ant and KAT, bench totally inefficient offensively when you put the wrong guys together.... time to improved the bench before deadline and hope Finch get enough b.... to talk to his leader. I'm afaid it will never happen as Finch want to keep his job as long as possible which mean not making upset KAT or ANT. KAT will not improved his IQ basketball and Ant need more time. Does not fit much right now with Mike or Rudy time line. At this level, we are a second round team, WCF is we very lucky.

Exactly, he is falling every single time. His control, his balance are so bad. Looking like he might break a limb on every play, including passes. Even if he scores, he will have to sprint back to catch up with the play.

Because he usually has the right match up and scores far more often than not.

It's too bad the officials are brutal on him with lack of calls.


He's hooking on every single drive. He gets away with way too much.

I just don't understand Finch's obsession with playing Gobert, SloMo together...those lineups suck offensively.

The stars have let us down but the roles guys have really been disappointing too. No one is stepping up to fill the gaps. Naz has been incredible all years but he has taken a step back, understandable in his case because he has been on fire all year. Anderson has been really killing us with his inability to shoot. Shake has been a bad singing halfway through the season. Jmac has had spurts but is still not enough for what we need. These other teams are getting a lot more production out of their bench guys as of late. Jaden has not taken on any of the significant roles you would hope he would at this point of the season.

His defense seems to have regressed to a degree. He isn't rebounding much better, his offense at times looks a little bitter but its not significant enough to help this team out in any major way. We need more contributions from these guys on top of needing Towns and Ant to be better and smarter.
