[@robertocousyn]

Coach is locked in. He really cares about our guys, you don’t put yourself in an uncomfortable position by holding your friends/teams accountable. I hope our guys are mature enough to realize how lucky we are if we take him seriously and are willing to take a look at individual play and take criticism

[@robertocousyn]

And not care*

[@Daveyjdigital]

Never seen this much emotion from finch before

[@kcmichelson4528]

This is after a win too lol.

[@dasDonnie]

He’s pissed dude

[@metalbent9078]

Yes he is.

[@nicks7393]

Ant was not good tonight, body language and effort off-ball was terrible. Hopefully NAW is okay because this team needs him especially with Divo out.

[@nydibs]

Ant was a team high +26 at half time, but yeah him and the whole team played with no energy. Looked liked everyone was just trying to get their stats. Randle and NAW were playing some brain dead basketball

[@saginawdan]

​@nydibs I expect Randle's carelessness. NAW, that's not his usual game.

[@BeerAndJointsAllDay]

@@saginawdan”careless” Randle still gave you 20 and 8

[@ddev18]

Finally you're getting real finch.

[@Weebei]

The Wolves have the ego of a championship contender. They have the play of an absolute pretender.

[@chron151]

We're not going to win anything significant for awhile. Finch isn't a perfect coach by any means but it doesn't help when we play down to the competition. If you can beat the Nuggets by over 30 you better win by at least 20 against this squad missing four starters.

[@biggy0917]

They're top six in net rating in the past ten games. Play has been good against good teams, I just don't understand how this happens against teams that are hobbled.

[@chron151]

@ We get cute, start turning the ball over, take bad shots, etc. etc. If we had gone up by 30 going into the fourth Atlanta probably would have given up.

[@BeerAndJointsAllDay]

@@chron151okay bro, but don’t even think about showing up to the championship parade we are gonna have in 5 months! Doomers like you do not deserve to celebrate

[@exoteric21]

This is the most pathetic effort I’ve seen from the Wolves in years. The second half was unwatchable. Ant and Julius not taking the game seriously at all. So glad Finchy started the press conference the way he did.

[@JCStorm76]

So you’re calling a win their most pathetic effort? You obviously haven’t seen many games

[@nydibs]

Would be nice if Finch did something during the game instead of after the fact

[@exoteric21]

@@JCStorm76coach seemed to agree with me, he knows basketball.

[@JCStorm76]

@@exoteric21 Well I’ve seen worse

[@RenZvers3]

@@JCStorm76 if they would've lost, then this will be one of the worse you've seen?

Couldn’t agree more. We need far more continuity & consistency on offense and the players need to find far better ways to space the floor. There’s too many positions, where we’re playing strong side dominant & we’re not rotating the ball to neither weak sides and its showing based on the unqualified shot selections We need to space & cut off ball to the basketball more in order for us to win There’s no reason young & Daniel’s DNP & the game at home is this close in margin of victory We need to get our act together in the fourth quarter otherwise…

[@Anthony-hu3rj]

I wish just once he would bench ANT for being lazy and stupid. Just sit him down at the end of the bench for a quarter and let him deal with it. Instead, he's treated with kid gloves and I think it's not doing him a favor!

[@nydibs]

I wish he would do it to anybody, Ant, Rudy, Jaden, Randle, Naz… whoever comes out playing lazy and dumb needs to sit and think about it

[@RenZvers3]

Chris Grinch didnt play Rob just because he missed 2 free throws is crazy ! once again, you almost blew it and lost the game........

[@don7680]

Team was sleepwalking. Finch should be PO'd.

[@LeviAvstin]

Finchy ripped into them as he should. That was AWFUL, and he’s right. The Hawks didn’t get back into the game, the Wolves brought them back into the game.

[@biggy0917]

Finch jsnt perfect, he needs to go deeper in his rotations, but hes a great defensive coach and likable leader. I really jope he can figure it out, people scapegaot cosches in the nba way too often

[@kevm359]

Does Ant even care half the time? Favorite player in the league and he looks disinterested at times which is unreal. Did Jordan ever look disinterested? No. Killer instinct 100 percent of the time every single game no matter who he was playing

[@biggy0917]

He really doesn't try against teams he doesn't care about. Super frustrating. Looking past opponents and blowing easy games can't happen at this point in the season. How do they beat the nuggets by thirty points and almost blow a game to the hobbled less than 500 hawks. Idk man

[@nydibs]

@ - Denver lost to Chicago last night, so maybe thats more indicative of Denver than it is Minnesota. They fooled us into thinking they turned a corner

[@nydibs]

Kobe threw a playoff series vs Phoenix to prove a point, he cost the Lakers the title vs Detroit. Revisionist history is always fun though

[@BeerAndJointsAllDay]

@@nydibsDenver won 8 straight before facing us, stop the cap and actually watch their games

[@nydibs]

@BeerAndJointsAllDay - Denver was on a 4 game win streak, not 8 and they didn’t beat any good teams

[@noahx1716]

Why did Rob only have 11 mins for this game? Seriously? Pathetic!

[@deadkennedyrolls21]

Finch can be annoyed, but he made some bone head decisions too. Not taking Minott off when he was awful. Leaving NAW on too long. Leaving Conley on too long when he barely scored.

[@Grawlix_Jungle]

Piss poor win

[@tobyegan5712]

Well, if Finch would pull his head out of his rear end...he wouldn't need to blame his team. Dillingham with 11 minutes and scored more points than Conley??? Finch needs to be fired ASAP. He as no idea how to utilize the talent the Wolves have. His constant hatred of young players is wrecking this teams chances of having a real team. Fire him immediately and start developing our young players!!!

[@tinfoilvegan]

Waste of time to watch basketball like that. Had to turn it off, we suck
