Minnesota sports. 1995? Impressive but has nothing on 0-18.Just read that this was the largest against the spread loss in the NBA since 1995? Makes it that much worse that this wasn't a throw away mid season game.

These are pros playing for contracts and to get into the playoffs.#1 NBA coaching quality is to get your players to play hard every game in a grinding season.
Finchy appears to be a top assistant at best
So a coach making a few million is supposed to inspire the loser KAT who’s earned $146million so far in his career and is scheduled to earn another $206million over the next 5 seasons? Give me a break. This team was gonna be a loser with KAT and now they are a double loser with KAT and Gobert.#1 NBA coaching quality is to get your players to play hard every game in a grinding season.

Well, at least he is an upgrade over the video coordinator the Wolves employed as HC.#1 NBA coaching quality is to get your players to play hard every game in a grinding season.

Steph Curry and Michael Jordan needed their coaches to motivate them. That, I am sure of.Sounds like we don't need a coach anymore. NBA players just motivate and coach themselves.
Steph Curry and Michael Jordan needed their coaches to motivate them. That, I am sure of.
by the way, an unmotivated, lackluster wolves team should have beaten Portland easily yesterday. Don't think too hard on that.
We have slow feet. Towns needs to be traded for athleticism and someone who can put the ball on the floor.
they were all fierce competitors the second they entered the league. They all needed time to mature and get to championship level. I'm quite sure of Michael, Kobe and Curry winning multiple championships without Jackson or Kerr.I don't disagree with what you wrote, but I'm not sure if you're being sarcastic with your first line. Motivation is just a small part of coaching, and not every great player needs it, but some do.
Championships won without Phil Jackson:
Michael Jordan: 0
Kobe Bryant: 0
Championships won without Steve Kerr:
Steph Curry: 0

These wolves clowns have lost to the Portlands at least 7 times this year. Any team with heart would be pissed off about that many games ago. Not the wolves though. They need to be motivated. Good Grief!
How do we know Finch is not motivating them?I disagree. Coaching and leadership matters. A lot.

Maybe this is who we are. We have extremely slow feet and few shot creators.
This team has been laying eggs against bad teams for 30 years. These clowns were lazy, and laying eggs with Thibs.Because laying eggs against bad teams hasn't been just a one year thing. It has happened repeatedly since Finch has become the head coach, despite changing over a large chunk of the roster.
Maybe towns is the problem with laying eggs against bad teams. He’s also been here since that became a common theme.
That might be part of the problem too…Towns is a problem, but he hasn't played in most of those games this season.
Well, the elephant in the room is that Ant.........oh wait, never mind!Towns is a problem, but he hasn't played in most of those games this season.
It does appear that KANT is trying to not play to extend his career. He was a failure in college when couldn’t beat the Badgers. A real champ should have won that game going away.So a coach making a few million is supposed to inspire the loser KAT who’s earned $146million so far in his career and is scheduled to earn another $206million over the next 5 seasons? Give me a break. This team was gonna be a loser with KAT and now they are a double loser with KAT and Gobert.
Don’t worry though they only have $72million tied up in the center position for this year and another $77million next year. Plus they only have ANt for 2023-2024 before he’s a RFA, so better find some money somewhere.
Well, the elephant in the room is that Ant.........oh wait, never mind!
