Oftentimes, when a coach is fired a team gets a little boost where they start playing better and showing energy. It generally only last like 3-8 games but I'll take anything at this point. Going to be interesting to see how timeouts, rotations, etc. are changed up with a new coach. I definitely think most of this teams problems are tied to the roster and style of play but coaching can definitely help us in some smaller areas.

These next 12 months are going make or break Rosas. He fully believes in Finch because his career is on the line. I hope he's right. He will do everything in his power to make Finch look good, if he flops, Rosas will be Kahn status.

This is Rosas last big move. It will either get him an extension or fired

Can't say it enough. Love the Finch hiring. If he brings the same approach as Nurse we're in for a real treat when it comes to watching the team play hard and together.

I don't care if we win or lose tonight......just super excited to see the new approach and the effect on the team. Hopefully it truly is play hard and play together....or take a seat.

Milwaukee is a tough first opponent. A loss won't be detrimental to Finch or a sign of what's to come.

Not at all, just saying we may see a spark and early reaction will be quick to think our problems are solves but the spark is normal after a firing.

Hopefully the starting line up is Rubio,Edwards,McDaniels,Vanderbilt and Towns.Think Beasley even being the best player so far on this team this season is best as a 6th man and guy to score and stablize the bench.

I'm expecting a very clumsy game from our side. Hopefully I'm proven wrong.

Sure, is still way too early but i hope they dont take too long to take out Vando of the starting lineup.

KAT, McDaniels, Edwards, Beasley, Ricky should be the lineup. Or Juancho at this point...

Finch can't do much but here some things to watch for.

-Small ball, how often we use it

-Two PG line ups

-Player minutes, will most guys be held to 34 minutes?

-Who closes games, Rubio at PG or Jmac? Edwards? McDaniels?

-Timeouts and challenges

- Out of time out plays

-Zone usage

-Coach challenges

Does anybody else have zero game sound, with just Benz and Peterson?
