  1. From an outside observer, it looks like is starts with randle. His pouty, no effort style rubs off on the team. But at the same time, Ant needs to rip into him to get him going. He is the leader, ant needs to be responsible for lifting up the team to show some effort

  2. If the problems are fixable why haven’t they been fixed. This crap has been going on for three years now. Finch praises his team when they screw off. These issues are on the coach and he hasn’t been able to fix them.

  3. Julius & Naz minutes are unfixable, the combination of Julius‘s bad energy, Naz bad technique is just unfixable. They cannot play together. You have to stagger minutes with those two on the floor. Finch needs to bench guys, no matter if their starters who aren’t given energy and play the young guys who actually are giving energy who always get on the floor and give energy. These are the main issues to stick out to me.

  4. I'm Brazilian and I've been following the Wolves for the past few years, and if they play without intensity against the Heat, they'll have even bigger problems than they've had in recent games. Pistons and Heat was a very close game, and the Miami have a pretty decent and intense defense.

  5. I noticed the lack of corner 3 too. Donte DiVincenzo is open all game in the corner, but the ball rarely gets to him. This been going on all season, it’s not recent. He even has both arms up calling for the ball and is ignored.

  6. “Ant you’re gonna have to diversify your looks in this game” he diversifies his look in every fkn game what the hell are you talkin about?

  7. Idk finch and randle is our biggest problems finch kills young guy confidence so they are nervous to play i dont think rob is great but aginst okc he play pretty good defense and didnt see the floor for a few games and randle is just not a good big man for this team

  8. It's the Coaches fault always . That's why they are coaches. Finch wants things done his way ! And it doesnt work with the players we have . We have no point guard? Who's fault is that? The Coach? Come on man ! Finch will never get anything more from this team.
