Timberwolves Fire Ryan Saunders; Hires Chris Finch to multi-year deal

[Bubba T]

How did they hire an assistant coach of another team immediately following? How is that possible

Obviously this was in the works for awhile.

LOL my niigga CP on KnicksFanTV said they making him take the Peter Pan bus, not even the Greyhound back to Minny

That Peter Pan bus

Outside of kat and Dlo, idk if other guys have missed games. Wolves fans always complained about him though, seems like he just wasn’t ready.

He wasn’t a great coach imo but DLO/KAT/Beasley didn’t get a lot of time to build this season .

Also they need to make a decision on if Ant/Dlo backcourt will work . If not ship one out for a 2

 

[goatmane]

LMAO he got fired after losing to Thibs...

Nick Nurse already got his own coaching tree in just 2 years...

Fellas,I am pissed. First of all, why would the Raptors even allow this mid season? That's one. Now for the Wolves. Why wouldn't you give Vanderpool a shot? I know the NBA doesn't have a Rooney Rule but to not even try to interview other candidates is some bull. Nothing against Finch but this is not how you build a culture. By not doing your due dilligence and going through the process is a damn joke.

The fact that towns and dlo haven’t played would be huge for any coach but they lose to many close games where he looks overmatched. Lack of adjustments in game are obvious. Rotations have been bad. This is a team that wants to shoot threes but they don’t play 2 of the best shooters Layman/Juan hernagomez. Also towns doesn’t get enough shots. He should be getting fed every time down court and have the rest play off of that. Make the game easy.

 

[pete clemenza]

Didn't know you could poach an assistant from a team in mid season

 

[Flex Luger]

LMAO he got fired after losing to Thibs...

 

[Mr. Jack Napier]

No wonder he looked extra stressed during tonight's game against NYK.


However, a few folks not feeling this...

I agree but it’s the wolves. Glen Taylor is a terrible disengaged owner of an nba team. We haven’t been competitive since KGs mvp year. It all comes from the top. This is what happens when u have a guy with money who decides to get into the sports just because but doesn’t have vision or the attitude to hold people accountable

Bruh it’s like everyone want Raptors secret sauce

I’d assume they were shook another team would scoop buddy in the off season .

Personally they should have allowed Vanterpool to get a chance . Bring in a new coach at seasons end so they have a fresh training camp if Vanterpool didn’t work out

Finch was on the bench coaching tonight and was interviewed by the Raptors broadcast team at halftime. This is wild

I’m sure another trash hire is coming soon.
