Finch is a great coach, fully disagree with the TNT crew.

Dirk lol

Dirk can say anything he wants about everyone in the nba because he is mvp&champion and he beat one of the best teams ever -

Towns gotta long way to go before he can say anything to the master of the iron knee

Many times more physical play and games do also lead to more foul calls

I think everyone knew it already, but Wolves need ANT to turn into a legit superstar and force KAT to be a 2nd banana if they want to be a real threat going forward. Towns is so soft mentally.

Lol Shaq. What she use, Elmo glue? But seriously lucky that she didn’t use super glue or something like that. Would have been the strangest way for a game to be delayed

Haha KAT having such a bad game that Chuck was basically at a loss of words. Agreed with what he and Shaq were saying though, he's taking himself out of the game with where he's settling on the court. Dude needs to realize that he is 7 feet and play like it. Its also not just the settling for bad distant shots either, its the 1 rebound in 14 minutes as well. Dude is just playing small out there and really isnt going to help himself with the "soft" criticisms he gets.

Finch got 3 great players -& decent supporting cast- and in the play in…

They definitely have more talent on floor than clippers and they at home and struggling -

He might be great but he isn’t getting as much out of these guys as you would expect

They are old school. They’d rather have coaches bench their players with 3 fouls and limit them to 25 minutes played and 4 fouls then have them risk fouling out ever.
When will we just change the name of 25 of the 30 teams to the Washington Generals?

Please advise….

It's not as if any of the crew have ever been lauded for their own coaching accomplishments. I trust Shaq and co's assessment of a coach as much as I do drafting advice from Michael Jordan.

Towns needs to find other ways to contribute to winning. When the shot ain't going in, he should use himself as a decoy b/c the Clips know he's a 3 threat level scorer and that'll open up opportunities for others. Set some good screens to open up mismatches, moving w/o the ball and get yourself deep when the mismatch is there and make the move quickly. It sucks that Vanderbilt is a nonexistent threat on offense and the Clippers can ignore him b/c of it, but KAT has to do something.

I like Finch and he's doing his best, but he should've yanked Towns out after that 3rd foul but oh well. Edwards and Russell have done well even though Edwards sadly fell for that rip through move that PG-13 used to his advantage giving him a 3rd foul(hate it but not much you can do).

I'll be shocked if the T-wolves win this game, but hey anything can happen.
