Really wish Finch is more creative with defensive coverages... it's like this team keeps running vanilla defensive coverages even when its not working

It still bothers me Jaylen Clark isn’t playing. He guards SGA tougher than anyone else we have and we won 2 out of 3 against OKC when he was in the rotation.

They are a VERY GOOD team. 68 wins isn't by accident.
Yep. People weren't paying attention if they are surprised OKC is dominating.

He certainly didn't improve this season, which is concerning.
Randle is getting to an age where he has reached his peak, and will regress.. long-term contract is SCARY imo..
Connelly has quite the difficult offseason in front of him.

What all this leaves me thinking is KD for Randle, Naz, Naw and picks..

I have always been open about my view of Naz Reid as too inconsistent and a defensive liability, for what it is worth.

Re: WCF Game 2, 5/22: Timberwolves @ OKC, 7:30 PM CST
It’s only two games and okc did what they needed to do in protect home court. However, it feels like a gentleman’s sweep at most.
Wolves need to get more athletic and longer across every position. Upgrades at C, pf and pg needed for sure. No more 6’4” guys please. Wcf is the cap for this current team.
On another note, we need guys to apply pressure on the defense. TSJ and Rob could be the only other players to do so with their speed and aggression.

Im glad the Wolves have reached a level where we are disappointed losing to one of the best regular season teams of all time who is stacked.
Unfortunately, this may be the ceiling for this current roster. Too many 1 way players who have major flaws.

Lol... way too much for kd.
Almost need to let okc dominate next year as well, and come up with something 27-28 when they can't afford all their guys..

If there is anything that Anthony Edwards needs to improve, it’s finishing around the basket.

Interesting dynamic with Shai cousin on our team. Guys prob feel they can’t do what they really want to out of respect for naw. Jaden is ready to lose it though lol

Devastating turnover. Could have been a one possession game, but now back to thirteen.

We actually made a real good comeback before that TO. Naz with a great block, but Williams there for the putback.
