Re: GAME THREAD: Wolves vs Portland 12-12-22
Pathetic. We just don't play hard. Jmac and Naz are about the only ones.
Austin Rivers and Forbes need to be DNP every game. Just play Moore, those guys add nothing.
Ant has been garbage all game. Ton of missed layups and fts. A cool -27 tonight. Yikes.

I think he's a decent coach, but it's clear he has some serious flaws.
This team needs structure with how many guys we have with questionable bbiq. He let's them do the free flowing offense and refuses to call timeouts to stop big runs.
They should see if Snyder is interested in the job, IMO

Think he'd be a great fit.

A lot of people were concerned the minute we made that terrible trade.
KAT is gone this off-season. Finch and DLo probably are gone too.

Just move the team. Clean slate, scrub the Wolves from NBA history. As far as anyone is concerned the last Minnesota basketball team moved to LA in like the 60s.
In all seriousness we might see long term improvement if he goes. I don't think Finch is a terrible coach, though he's had more than a few head scratching moves, but this stubborn determination to run a free flowing offensive system when our team is stocked to the gills with absolute single digit IQ smoothbrains is approaching Thibs levels of absurd.
They need a set structure with clearly defined roles...why is that so difficult to grasp?

Re: GAME THREAD: Wolves vs Portland 12-12-22
The Butler trade, the Russell trade and now the Gobert trade. It doesn't matter who is in charge, this franchise is never on the right side of these deals.

Imagine giving away 6 picks and 3,4 decent role players just to keep getting outrebounded by 15. Even I was thinking Gobert will heĺp with that part, but the team refuses to care it seems

Re: GAME THREAD: Wolves vs Portland 12-12-22
I don't understand how Jaden can continue to put up duds like this -- 2 points 1 rebound in 28 minutes? He has length and some developing skills to be sure, but he just doesn't have a nose for the ball.

Re: GAME THREAD: Wolves vs Portland 12-12-22
Going forward this team needs to get physical, smart players. We got so many guys who do not know how to boxout and put a body on anyone. It's crazy, its like we went all finesse. We need to fill the roster out with a lot more grit.

I wouldn’t be surprised if the team was better without D LO and KAT.
Too many spoiled wanna be alpha dogs on the team and nobody actually willing to do the dirty work. The team severly lacks dirty hustle players like Vanderbilt and Beverly.
