Finchy seemed to move into the path to catch him, so maybe they should share it ;)

I'd actually never heard of Finch being Finchy until this incident.

You must not ever watch the interviews. They call him Finchy all the time.

I finally got around to listening to the Jon Krawcinski podcast with Tim Connelly. He raved about Mike, what a good guy he is, and how he wants to keep him in the organization after he retires, joking he can do anything, maybe even replace him!

I also think I heard that Connelly’s right hand man, Matt Lloyd, turned down the chance to GM the Hornets, so he could stay here!

I think he deserves teammate of the year just for accepting bite bite as his nickname (however reluctantly,) but I wonder if his minutes might be reduced against Denver in favor of NAW. I could see Mike starting around 28 and being down to 18 by the end of the series.

I think it's hard to predict as it will depend on score, fouls... but i agree. Most important is to keep Mike min for the clutch time as he is very important and efficient when it matters the most. Go Wolves!

Sorry if this is a duplicate post. I didn’t see it in this thread and it popped up in my YouTube videos. Mike getting interviewed by TNT crew after winning teammate of the year.

I just saw that Mike Conley isn’t even one of the six nominees to win another Sportsmanship award this season.

He already has four, which is a record.

Rob, Jaylen and Daishen mentioned Conley. I think this is how we can get the most of our young players: play them with purpose, let them grow within working process and system, and surround them with veterans such as Conley, Ingles and Gobert. And dividends can be huge, because we still have six very young guys with potential to improve:

- Rob Dillingham
- TSJ
- Jaylen Clark
- Minott
- Miller
- Dashen Nix

Absolutely. I follow Mike since he got drafted and since he pass 30, he always need a bit of games to warm up. Nothing to worry, he will be here again this year and contribute.

Still struggling with shooting but solid playmaking tonight. Wonder if he will play tomorrow. Put DDV as a starter and RD coming from the bench. On the other side, SA is not a bad team, But if i was the coach, i will rest Mike and give min to RD.

Return to Minnesota Timberwolves
