Finch has me scratching my head a lot this season. Can you please change the starting lineup? Can you expand the rotation? Clean up the dam offense, it’s the same issues as always with these turnovers.
@@colesmith193didn't Connelly get Dillingham with the express intention he'd get minutes this season? I like our core but Minott and TJ need some run too. Both of those guys have more upside than Luka Garza
Listen I get Ant has been shooting over 40% from 3 and he is watching film on lillard, but we won't win unless he gets back to more mid range and drives to the basket. I dont care about the new 3 point analytics this is basketball, and Timberwolve coaches encouraging Ant to stay away from mid range is a HUGE MISTAKE. As a side note we should also consider starting Naz over Randle.
@@esohny they couldn't afford to overpay everyone...look how overpaid Rudy, Conley, and others are! Randle will be elsewhere next year on a minimum deal, given his defense. Also, if Ant gets injured and tears his acl what then, the wolves will tank.
True but to his defense, he's not a center or shot blocker, and Finch has him and Naz rotating the C position when Rudy is on the bench. That's not his position.
@@toucheyang89 he doesn't play his position when he's out there with Rudy either. Did you see the defensive possession where Rudy had a nice block that went into the corner, right to Randle's guy, and he didn't even put a hand up? Didn't put in any effort at all to try to contest the shot? And his guy made the 3 He also screws up the entire defensive rotation when guys have to switch. You'll see everyone closing out to the open man when they're swinging it around, then it lands on the last guy and Randle is in the same position he was when Portland started the beginning of the play. They had sooooo many wide open 3s yesterday and yet we have people wondering why Portland went off against the Wolves. Gee, I wonder why when they're getting wide open practice shots?
@@JeremyGraczyk Yeah that might be true. What I was getting at is this whole teams defense is in shambles and Julius is a big part of that sure. Jaden fouls way too damn much, he's constantly in foul trouble, putting teams in early bonus'. He's defense is overrated. Naz is also not a Center, but Finch has his playing minutes there. Robert Williams was feasting. Defensive isn't great but it's not all on Randle. I hate Finchs dual PG line up Conley/Donte. It's a disaster defensively. Doesn't pass the eye test for me. Naz
While Jaden has a better offensive game than NAW, it offsets when Jaden is constantly getting into foul trouble while Nickiel is a quality defender with a cooler head @@toucheyang89
As a Knicks fan that knows Randle very well. I tried warning Wolves fans and made comments on Knicks podcast channels. Knicks fans would call me a hater. As if it wasn’t obvious to see his defensive flaws, laziness and constant turnovers. But it’s whatever. I’m just glad he’s gone
@ facts! I wouldn’t say he’s their only problem. The fact that Donte is struggling from 3 is a problem and the defense is not as good as last season is another. My Knicks have those same issues. Their offense is like 2nd best and will get back some much needed help. Both teams are trying to figure it out. The only massive advantage the Knicks have is that the East is very weak. The only horrible west coast teams is the Jazz and Pelicans
@JCStorm76 KAT lead the league in offensive fouls over the last 3 years. His drive percentage is one of the worse... for a Big. All he was ......was a 3 point shooter.
Come on Finch. We all understand that Conley is your guy and the team is going to need him this year. But give him a few days off and get Dillingham in there. You're going to need him seasoned by the time the playoffs start. Same thing for Terrence Shannon. It's time to let the young guys eat a little. This is not the time to worry about how well the veterans can gel. If you're going to be losing games like this early in the season, they should be at the hands of a few young players who need to season for the playoffs. Just my opinion.
This team is cooked, they'll be lucky to get a play-in tournament win. But hey, at least Glen Taylor has saved SOME money this year and MORE in the future by trading KAT, and that's really what's important here. In fact, me and all the the other delusional fans who've attacked me in other videos have decided to create a gofundme for poor old Glen, we need to bring this senial billionaire costs down even more, afterall our enjoyment isn't relevant to the product.
I remember Britt Robson on Danes podcast a few weeks ago saying he wouldn't be surprised if we're 11-9 before we start to gel. The formerly vaunted 58-24 team from '04 took some time to gel as well before they stormed into the playoffs
ive watched both wolves and blazers this season. blazers r young but have talent and length, and some of that talent just came back: sharpe, rob wills. sharpe has been looking sharpe. scoot's driving touch has taken a juge leap and he's explosive n strong. banton has been emerging as a 4th Q offensive machine. The is the first game they gave him mins early. theyve got a chip on their shoulder from the trashing the wolves gave them not long ago and have been playing quite well since.
I wouldn’t group Rudy in with Randle. The Wolves defense and rebounding is non-existent when he’s off the floor. Randle is a pile of crap if he’s not making shots.
@@colesmith193 why not. They're getting killed in transition, allowing lay ups, he drops easy passes, misses dunks, isn't doing anything on offense. His body language is just timid. Show some effort
@@colesmith193People always give it to Rudy after we lose. About one in every four games he plays poorly. But as you said imagine if he got injured or something. Then you’d really notice the difference
Ben tu es très gentil avec AE, je pense qu'il peut défendre et là il était aux abonnés absents, alors ce n'est pas un bon match du tout de sa part. Ce n'est pas grave cela arrive mais bon il faut aussi savoir le dire. Go AE
Minnesota has way too many turnovers. The coach has not implemented a system and its obvious. Rudy doesnt have offensive instincts and Ant isnt a natural playmaker. Twolves have to get Dillingham in there Conley isnt a factor.
TELL MIKE CONLEY THE TRUTH & enough of finch, he wasn’t that good of a coach last year. We had a really good team moments that mattered, the coaching wasn’t there.
No panic Ok, mais il y a beaucoup de travail tant individuellement que collectivement. Mais c'est vraiment moche et le langage corporel de certains ne rend pas forcément très optimiste
Finch has me scratching my head a lot this season. Can you please change the starting lineup? Can you expand the rotation? Clean up the dam offense, it’s the same issues as always with these turnovers.
He’s too stubborn for that
@@JCStorm76Ya Tim Connelly will probably have to intervene. Finch apparently has no long term plans in mind.
@@colesmith193didn't Connelly get Dillingham with the express intention he'd get minutes this season? I like our core but Minott and TJ need some run too. Both of those guys have more upside than Luka Garza
Yesterday was ugly. I need to see clean organized offense tonight or we can call this season cooked
True west is to competitive to loose alot games
they seem kind of lost don't they....

Who could have possibly predicted that the team would be worse?

@@MA9ELLANyou mean if an NBA team loses its star player they're likely tanked? You act like that is a Minnesota specific issue
Well it is the wolves. History has a hand in this. Hopefully they can turn it around but who knows. Watch and hope.
me, its min sports and this happens all the time. team will make playoffs as a 7th seed.
me wasnt a good game yesterday
Disagree about ant. Really didn’t seem engaged most of the game. Not a stud.
Randle has no interest in playing defense. I can't stand players like this.
I agree with you, but when I make statements like yours, people say" have you watched the games or just looked at the plus/minus".
True but to his defense, he's not a center or shot blocker, and Finch has him and Naz rotating the C position when Rudy is on the bench. That's not his position.

Top 10 team in the league means nothing when only 12 playoff spots are guaranteed
I really don't know how I've watched you guys for over a year and just subscribed😅
This is not a same team we had last year. Why we traded KAT? WHY?
i guess trade wasnt what we thought

Randle can be annoying, but he’s far from the Wolves only problem lol.

You guys have no idea how happy I am that Julius Randle is off my team, I'm in heaven. Praying for you Wolves fans 🙏🏾
Your 5-5 y’all aren’t all that😂
@MarkShaw-ji7gq laugh now, cry later
@@rswdlive95like y'all cried when you lost to a hobbled Haliburton and the Pacers?
I was right. We are just a mid team without KAT
KAT has allowed 91% made opponent shots in the restricted area on 32 of 35 shooting.....
By far - BY FAR the worse defender in the league.
@ How about offensively?
@JCStorm76 the Wolves offense has improved this year
Statistically.
It's the defense that's failing.
@@jerrystraka7856 That’s mainly because of Anthony Edward’s 3 point shooting
@JCStorm76 KAT lead the league in offensive fouls over the last 3 years.
His drive percentage is one of the worse... for a Big.
All he was ......was a 3 point shooter.

If I were Taylor, I would sell the team sooner than later.
I remember Britt Robson on Danes podcast a few weeks ago saying he wouldn't be surprised if we're 11-9 before we start to gel. The formerly vaunted 58-24 team from '04 took some time to gel as well before they stormed into the playoffs
PS…Thanks for your coverage this late night. Appreciate it man.
Dillingham should be playing more minutes. He will bring more energy and enthusiasm! Conley getting long in the tooth.
Naz should start over Randell. Better all around player and has earned it
Yo we’re not cooked guys. Ant is having a couple off games and our lineup will hopefully expand. We didn’t go 82-0 last year

Randle is clumsy and uncoordinated. He seems timid, soft and lazy. So does Rudy. Am i being too harsh but i don't think so

@@JCStorm76 he had 1 fg at the fourth quarter. Dude is dust

We lost to the worst team in the league with out there 2 best players
Minnesota has way too many turnovers. The coach has not implemented a system and its obvious. Rudy doesnt have offensive instincts and Ant isnt a natural playmaker. Twolves have to get Dillingham in there Conley isnt a factor.
THE SKY IS NOW OFFICIALLY FALLING
Swap Ant with Jokic and Minnesota wins multiple championships. One player makes his team mates better the other doesn't.
Jokic playing with Randle,Gobert 😂😂😂
Mike Conley is washed. Play Rob
TELL MIKE CONLEY THE TRUTH & enough of finch, he wasn’t that good of a coach last year. We had a really good team moments that mattered, the coaching wasn’t there.
No panic, right?! 🙏🙏🙏
