Connelly and Finch clearly said multiple times that it will take time and it will work. Meaning they could be an effective team. From the small sample, looks like it will. I would give it the entire season. It seems Ant's the one that needs to learn how to navigate with the pair.
I am not going into all those reasons why it could work again. Maybe Connelly does intended to trade Towns at some point for other reasons. Until then, we can win with both of the on the team.
"Experiment" is just for those that sh*t on it right away, because maybe an analogy attached to science could get them to stop trashing everything before giving it time (which is doubtful).
Also, it's mainly because when you buck the current trend, you sometimes need to massage the perception, so that those that lack vision in the media can have something to write about. I think it's a great idea and for one was excited that the Wolves finally understood that small market teams can't chase trends, they will always have less resources to pull it off than bigger market teams.
The only way to get new trends (i.e. how small ball became a thing) is to try something different and be successful at it. Whatever you wanna call it, even if it doesn't end up working out, I still think it's a worthy attempt and the right kind of logic for long term success in this market.
