Re: ***Official Chris Finch -Wolves Head Coach Thread***
I was watching the Boston game last night, and the announcers were saying the same thing, that Boston was trying to run the clock out taking shots at the last 2nd and not taking good shots that let the Nets come back.NotRasho wrote: ↑Tue Apr 26, 2022 11:02 pmThey were deliberate, they just didnt produce a good shot.

Re: ***Official Chris Finch -Wolves Head Coach Thread***
i'm thinking specifically of two ANT shot selections. one was a quick three and the other was that put back after a miss. on the second one it just made sense to bring the ball out and set up the offense again. you take time off the clock with the lead and work to get a good shot/foul.NotRasho wrote: ↑Tue Apr 26, 2022 11:02 pmThey were deliberate, they just didnt produce a good shot.

they are pretty bad at just running the clock down and trying to score in end of the half/game situations though.
i think finch's big mistake in this series has been his shortening of the bench. Jmac/nowell/monroe playing some minutes in game three and nowell/monroe tonight would have gotten them at least one more W--and maybe even closed it out tonight. that's on top of all the other minutia you could criticize when blowing two 20 plus point leads in one game and an 11 point lead in the 4th tonight.
if you want to point fingers that's the first guy i'm pointing one at.

He learned to have better usage of this time outs, now he needs to figure out how to design reliable plays to run that can grind out a win.

Re: ***Official Chris Finch -Wolves Head Coach Thread***
the rebounding woes - and specifically against clarke - are driven by the players. finch isn't out there playing. but finch should be REALLY focusing on the clarke problem, and my guess is that he's not. by that i mean i bet he's saying "clarke's killing us on the boards. get a body on him". that's obviously not enough - finch should be doing more to focus on problem/solution.
all nba players these days are guilty of lazy rebounding. they are used to seeing a shot go up and then going to the basket with no other thought than "if it's a rebound, i should get it". most of the time you see them - and it's all of them - standing nearly upright, arms bent at the elbow with their hands poised and ready about armpit height. and that works when everyone has similar verticals. but it doesn't work against a freak like clarke. he simply has a much better ability in that situation to jump remarkably higher than the average big bear to control the rebound. for example, i think clarke's standing vert is nearly a foot better than KAT's and naz's. so you can see wolves bigs (all of them) make a cursory attempt to box out clarke, but then they invariably turn and go to the basket in case they might get the board. the only guy i saw focus on just boxing out clarke last night was jaden on one play - and then it was a long bounce and clarke went over him to tap it out anyway. but at least jaden "got" the concept.
if finch can specifically hammer into the heads of our bigs the need to box out clarke and ONLY box him out and do it before he gets his position under the hoop - let someone else get the actual rebound - we could turn it around. it doesn't show up on any stat sheets, but it in fact could win us a game because clarke's offensive boards have been killers to us. right now he's just been walking unimpeded to the scrum under the basket and then simply outjumping everyone. and then, the fact that he again uses that great bounce to elevate above any shotblocker on a putback - plus the fact that he's super accurate on those - makes it absolutely necessary to shut him down on offensive rebounds. he's scored 56 points in the past three games. how many plays have they run for him in that time? two? maybe?

Re: ***Official Chris Finch -Wolves Head Coach Thread***
here's another coaching decision that finch made that i disagreed with at the time--and i mentioned it in the game thread. i wish he would have kept ANT in the game when the team had the double digit lead in the 4th quarter. the unit he had on the floor at the time was taking it to the grizzlies. he took him out and they started to begin their comeback.
we'll never know what would have happened. he might have picked up his sixth foul right away--but i would have rolled the dice and kept him in the game.

Re: ***Official Chris Finch -Wolves Head Coach Thread***
Everyone shortens their bench in the playoffs. I’d rather have semi gassed guys playing 40 minutes than Greg F’n Monroe. There are so many breaks in these games with all the timeouts that it’s the same thing as guys getting their regular season blow. There’s good reason those guys aren’t getting minutes and it’s because they are much worse than our top 7-8 guys.weimy froob wrote: ↑Wed Apr 27, 2022 1:00 ami'm thinking specifically of two ANT shot selections. one was a quick three and the other was that put back after a miss. on the second one it just made sense to bring the ball out and set up the offense again. you take time off the clock with the lead and work to get a good shot/foul.NotRasho wrote: ↑Tue Apr 26, 2022 11:02 pmThey were deliberate, they just didnt produce a good shot.

Jmac was a DNP in game three. was prince hurt tonight? nowell only played in garbage time and monroe looked functional in his minutes--he just didn't get very many of them. those are all coaching decisions.
let alone the collapses where he wasn't able to rally his team. a tough series for him too.

sometimes this team gets so undisciplined on the offensive end that it seems like it's as difficult as herding cats to get them to run an offensive set. he needs to identify when that happens faster. was too late with a TO last night imo.jffl_commish wrote: ↑Sat Apr 30, 2022 8:17 am Finch has some major improving to do this offseason.

i felt like his biggest mistakes in this series was keeping nowell on the bench for the series and keeping Jmac on the bench in game three. i think there's a game seven or this series is over in the t-wolves favor if they played.
also was prince hurt last night?

Gotta bump up this thread. Finch came in with Zone and that made a difference this last game.
Next step, try NAZ , Kat, Rudy together once.

What a turn around a year makes. Gotta give credit where credit is due. Finch may have a weakness when it comes to calling timely time outs but his half time adjustments this year have been incredible. Very encouraging to see him improve in that area.
All coaches have flaws but at the end of the day...if he keeps improving on his weaknesses year after year he deserves to stay.

And a huge part of that can be credited to Conley.

For sure. The upgrade from Russell that Conley represents can’t be understated. But that tells me that this is what Finchy always wanted and Russell wasn’t doing it. Minnesota Mike probably didn’t have enough time to pick up what finch wanted to do on the fly last year so they kept it going. Kudos to Finchy and Connelly for making the trade.SHAFA wrote: ↑Sat Dec 09, 2023 7:21 pmAnd a huge part of that can be credited to Conley.

Honest question - given what the All Star game has turned into in recent years, do coaches assigned actually benefit from the experience? Other than managing minutes and substitutions, I mean, the players don't really give a shit about gameplans.

It's been 32 years since one of MN's four major sports teams has been to the Championship/Superbowl.
Every single year is failure until we win one. 4 teams, 32 years. That's roughly 128 consecutive failed seasons.

It's been 32 years since one of MN's four major sports teams has been to the Championship/Superbowl.
Every single year is failure until we win one. 4 teams, 32 years. That's roughly 128 consecutive failed seasons.
