Great read. Good insider details about what Ant and Mike Conley discuss before games and how Ant is improving his playmaking. Apparently, before every game Mike and Ant run through what kind of defensive schemes he’ll see and what passes will be available. Man having Mike Conley is huge for Ant’s development.
Wolves are #1 in midrange shooting and #10 in 3-point shooting. But they are #18 in points per possession (turnovers probably affect this). But he thinks if the Wolves keep improving they can make the WCF and once there “you have a shot at everything”.
In Lowe’s podcast this week, he was also very high on the Wolves saying he’s “running out of answers when he ponders why the Wolves can’t win a title” and if he’s “underselling the Wolves when he predicted they would be a top 4 seed”. I’m somewhat surprised he’s this high on the team but unlike many national media, Lowe actually watches the games and looks at stats comprehensively.
Just imagine if we picked up like Caruso to replace Milton’s minutes.
