Finch’s record against lottery teams is abysmal, it’s shocking really.

We couldn't get anything closer to the basket???

What kind of a play call was that.

Another 4th qtr collapse. Just like it used to be.

This, unfortunately many here just look that he has the best coaching record in franchise history and they think he’s good. On another franchise like Bucks or celtics he would be on the hot seat for his horrible coaching decisions and his horrible offense.

Well deserved loss. We play with fire too many games. TO, poor shoot selection. This team seems clueless in many 4th quarter. And Whem Mike does not play, it's even worse.

I wish we had a great coach, we have almost everything else but a great coach that can calm them down and makes great decisions in close games. And a backup pg.

10.5 point favorites and lose outright. Garbage loss to a garbage team.

Plenty of blame to go around. But Finch deserves a ton for that lineup at the beginning of the fourth.

Congrats to the Spurs, they earned it. Amazing shooting in the 4th and we again played like cheeks. Major issues with this team and offense. The defense did let us down tonight but the offense is anemic and easily stopped in the 4th. Big time issue.

Right now we are not close to the Thunder or Clippers as far as a top team in the conference. We have fallen off significantly. We are playing like a play-in team. Monday could get very ugly, I zero confidence in our ability to hang in any game that is close down the stretch.

Maybe we can see a massive turn around after the all-star break, we are in a major funk right now.

I also don't understand why Gobert was in that last play. Maybe just to block Wemby? Ant has to make his move way earlier. He gives up the ball with no time left. How many time we seen this situation 9.2 sec left. Make your move as soon as possible. If you missed the shot then foul the rebounder. You way still have a chance to tie with a 3. These are extremely basic end of game approaches.

These losses have been a collective effort. The team as a whole has been crumbling. This isn't on one person.

Well the head coach is shell shocked on the sidelines so in clutch moments this team does dumb things.

silver lining is this is happening before the trade deadline
Wolves have limited ability to make any meaningful move, but at least the FO will be less likely to be complacent

Agree with that. This game basically tell us that we should move anyone other than Gobert, Towns, Ant, Conley, NAW to improve the team. Certainly makes it easier to move JMcD, KA, Naz, and Finch.

We can hopefully improve our bench and get a competent backup pg but we will still have Finch and that means in the playoffs this team will make dumb decisions late and give up big leads in the fourth quarter because Finch is on the sidelines not knowing what to do to calm this team down when the opponent is on a run or draw up the right plays down the stretch or make the right substitutions or call a timely time out. Finch is an extremely MID head coach. The team record is better but his team is still making the same dumb mistakes his whole coaching tenure.

There is no way we don't make some roster moves soon lmao. Gobert-Naz-Anderson-Milton-McLaughlin on the floor together was comedy. Literally one of the most offensively inept groups I've ever seen.
