He really deserves all the criticism he’ll get tonight. How do you have a All-Defense caliber defender and not adjust. Jaden clamped Trae. But Murray was literally taking over like MJ and Finch still played him straight up with Conley & NAW, who got cooked. Didn’t even try to trap him or put Jaden on him.
Having deja vu?
From an Athletic article published 1/1/23…
“The Wolves came out firing with a 39-point first quarter. They still led by 14 at halftime, which should have been more than enough against a team that had lost 10 of its previous 12 games, most in convincing fashion.
But rather than sensing an opponent begging to be beaten, the Wolves just stopped trying. They went into halftime knowing that they have been one of the worst third quarter teams in the league all season long, and yet still came out of the break with another putrid period.”
Ownership is paying Tim Connelly $40M to construct a championship contender. Go find your championship coach.
The stability Finch has brought has been super important, but he was inherited.
Much different situation but FWIW Connelly has fired a coach midseason
“The timing of the dismissal was somewhat surprising, given that just last week Connelly seemed to signal Shaw’s job was safe, at least through the end of the season.”
Connelly still hasn’t had the chance to pick his coach for the Wolves. Finch was here first. He may or may not think he’s the right guy for the team.
For all the morons who think finch needs to go, who are you hiring instead of him 3 games into a make or break season? Go ahead and drop some names of coaches you guys want to see that’ll be better than finch immediately and be able to install some sort of system in the middle of the season that’ll make this team better. If finch is so shitty there should be no shortage of options, right?
Its 1/82nd of the entire season, get a fucking grip and get ready for Wednesday
