It’s not like Finch isn’t on the bench…

Remember when Luke Walton was the hottest coaching candidate - even though Kerr was with the team every day of the season?


I think getting the spotlight on a team where the coaching looks great is a pretty good selling point for open head coaching vacancies.

I'm just praying that the Denver job doesn't suddenly open up. Don't do it to us, Calvin Booth!

I have to type this or else I’m not going to believe it.

Today is 5-7-2024 and our Minnesota Timberwolves are UNDEFEATED, 6-0, in the playoffs!

Have we atoned for our sins the past 20 years, and the basketball gods have finally chosen us?

This feels so unreal.

Again, it just goes to show how the narrative shifted once the Wolves took control of that series. Prior the beginning of the playoffs, Vegas and the majority of talking heads had Phoenix winning.

The sail barge has been slowly turning to see just how good Minnesota is.

When we opened the series with them they were great. As soon as we started kicking their asses they sucked the whole time and beating them was no accomplishment at all.

That first half.......I think that is on the short-list of best halves of team defense that I have EVER seen. Ever.

Unbelievable, just smothering. The ball pressure up high by MAW and McDaniels was utterly relentless, the doubles were aggressive and effective and the rotations (all the way around--->as doubles create the need for two and three [more?] different rotations) were the best/quickest I've ever seen. And just EVERYBODY bodying up, playing physical, active hands, contesting shots, etc.

Phenomenal. I've never seen Denver look so browbeat and out of synch.

Arenas said he’s texting a Nuggets bench player. I don’t buy it, but …

Arenas is straight up xenophobic clown. He hates on all foreign players (except Wemby cuz he has no angle to clown him) 24/7. So I wouldn't even click anything relating to him to give him views.
