”Do we care?” That was the question Rudy Gobert asked after the blowout loss in Atlanta. Gobert went on to elaborate on where he sees the team currently.
“Do we care? Does something happen when we like we played the first quarter tonight? Or is it just cool? Make a lot of money, we play basketball, do what we do and go home and be happy. I think that’s the fine line between a team that’s playing for a championship and a team that’s full of talent but doesn’t accomplish ****.”
When asked how he feels the team has played recently, Gobert responded, “
Not like a team that wants to play for a championship. That’s for sure.”
Donte DiVincenzo echoed much of what Gobert said, explaining how it is one of the Wolves players to find more consistency from night to night.
“How many meetings, how many film sessions, how many times has Finchy had to talk to us? It’s just frustrating because you go out in Chicago, you play well, you respond, and then you come in here and lay an egg.”
Timberwolves head coach Chris Finch described the ways the Wolves have missed NAW’s presence before Wednesday’s game.
“We miss him. We miss that high level of competitiveness every night. The consistency that he brought. I used to refer to him as a utility infielder. You could do whatever you needed him to do on any given night.”
