The Official Wolves vs Grizz Game 6 Thread.

Finch isn't the problem. Kat and Ant couldn't make shots down the stretch. Once again careless turnovers by the Wolves are killers. Dlo and Beasley were non factors in 90% of the series.

Memphis drove to the basket on most every play then would pass it out and drain the 3. We didn't.

I feel for the guys. Mabe we learn from it. I wouldn't bet on that mind you.

If we couldn’t learn from our mistakes after game 3…then game 5…and now game 6…i don’t even know if I wanted a game 7.

I mean obv yea I wish we won but we learned nothing

I'm so tired of this. My blood pressure is ruined because of this team. The amount of stress this team caused over the years has taken years off my life.... they dangled Adriana Lima in front of me.. Brandon Roy... A rubio who could dunk.. A new young team who had the brightest future with KG along for the ride... And now this..I'm crazy.. I'm **** crazy... I'm from Wisconsin WTF Am I doing???. see ya next season people.....

Dude wanted nothing from Ja at the end. Lol.

Screw being friends with your opponent after you've just choked away a playoff series. Ja needs to keep his ugly face away from Edwards.

Finch does stupid things too, you can’t make up excuses for putting in hearless dlo for that long in fourth when jmac was on fire , and then NOT calling timeouts when memphis had all the momentum.

McDaniels took some steps in this series, but he's a 3, not a 4. Horrible decisions by FInch going so small all those offensive rebounds are 50% on him.

One more thing. I would give Finch COY award only for benching DLo and playing JMac and Monroe. We finally have a Coach.

Get rid of D'Lo. He totally dogged it on a rebound before he got benched.

Yep and Gupta for staying pat at trade deadline.
He must get rid of dlo this offseason.

The core of this team going forward came into focus pretty clearly this series. Edwards, Towns, and McDaniels (and Beverley for a year or two) are the guys to build around. Vanderbilt and McLaughlin are best as solid bench guys. The rest of the roster needs some major work.

Can't even be mad at his work this year. 20 year old Sophmore with zero fear of the big moments.

Excited to see them in action next season.

I would keep jmac too, and maybe Beasley.
Dlo, reid and Prince need to get the **** out.

Don’t want Towns on a super max. His in game iq and emotional control should determine that much

Jmacs a good back up spot starter.

Vanderbilt needs muscle and to develop some sort of Brandon Clarke touch, would be really ideal.

I can’t believe dlo laid 6 straight eggs. He made 2 quick 3rd qtr shots and that was it

Getting kicked in the balls should hurt every time man. If my kid bullshts around whenever he does homework but then throws a tantrum when he scores low on a test I'd tell him to gtfoh.

If Gupta wants to re-sign guys, his job got a lot easier due to the playoffs. All of DLO, Reid, Prince, and Nowell likely decreased their next contracts by a fair amount.

Neeva · Post #318 » by **Neeva** » Sat Apr 30, 2022 4:06 am

He probably would have scored more but Finch always sits him for long stretches and then Ant goes cold then.

Like they say cream(ant,mcdaniels) rises to the top and turds sink to the bottom.
