We’re clearly game planning for KAT.

Fine.

But it’s pure BS. Based on the regular season and words straight from Finch’s mouth… Ant was supposed to start the primary and KAT would “stand in a corner” more.

I personally feel like Finch is **** ip the team with this KAT first offense. KAT will get his. But push comes to shove, we need to understand that gaurds get you to the finish line.

It's base on game situations right? I want to see every play with ball going to Gobert and Towns until OKC put in bigger players. Take advantage of the situation


I get it. But Ant also needs to get fed. It can’t be Towns Towns Towns Rudy Towns.

But since I made that last post, we’ve starting involving the rest of the team, which is incredibly important.

I don't understand why we don't play Rivers instead.

I like the game plan so far. Ant is definitely not right but we need his D. Just keep dumping it into Gobert, that will take some pressure off and open up 3 pt shots.

I’m really impressed with towns’ calmness. He must be doing meditation.

Really like the Towns postups. The D has to collapse every time

Why would the coach design a game plan around an inferior scorer? Ant doesn't score as well or in as many different ways as KAT plus he's not 100%.

I’m saying sprinkle in some plays. Obviously we’ve been sharing better since my original post.

Why challenge the kick OOB call. We're up. Save it for later. It's just one possession.

He's been complaining a lot on the last few no calls. Its brinign me PTSD because I don't want him and the team to meltdown but I see it coming. Need to just shut up and keep playing. Don't piss off the refs.

I don't complain about calls much but definitely the calls are not going our way

Great challenge by finch. Although not ordinary. It reinforces your sway with the refs that their calls are wrong. Challenge on a for sure call and let the refs know they ain’t ****.

This is not Prince's game. We need another bench player to step up
