Didn't know a coach that got a lot of the same roster to the Western Conference Finals last season is now a joke simply because he doesn't play a player that most on here wouldn't care about if said player didn't go to Illinois. Oh, and not to mention the T-Wolves were already pretty deep at guard to begin with.

I definitely don't think Finch is a joke, but I do think he needs to try something different and fast. In my opinion, the Timberwolves front office did him dirty with the KAT trade. That trade never made any bit of sense to me given how close Minnesota was last season. Also, Gobert is nowhere near close to the player he's been the last few seasons. Not sure if that's just a decline in physical skills or if the team around him is making him less effective. Quite possibly a combination of the two factors.

That being said, I probably would have at least tried to increase TSJ's minutes some. Definitely not saying he should be getting 35-38 minutes a game, but a guy like him could at least provide some level of spark if he was getting even 10-15 minutes a game.

not to mention keeping starter legs a bit fresher in the fourth quarter.

I bet very soon someone is going to put in a trade for him because there’s so much potential.

Golden state should. They spread the floor with shooters and TJ would have ample opportunities to drive to the rim

I have a hard believing TSJ isn’t better than Podz, who is playing 24 minutes per game. TSJ has better hair too.

An aside - Podz has a horrible haircut like at least half of the males under 30. The ridiculous shaved undercut with a frizzy bowl cut on top is exactly what my grandma and her friends all had. How do women find that attractive. End middle age guy rant.

Wouldn’t that be something. TSJ replacing Podz.

the juiceman cometh
After a terrible start to the season, Kofi's team Seoul Samsung Thunders, has won their last 4 games and is no longer in last place (now 8th out of 10 - top 6 make playoffs)

Kofi is averaging 20 pts 11 boards and is 3rd in the league in scoring, 4th in rebounds. He is shooting 60% and it does not look like he has attempted a single 3pt shot.

If you translate the KBL website to English, Kofi's name comes up as "Coffee Coburn" which is a misspelling that I'm kinda surprised we never saw on this site.

I meant what google translate changes it to, might be different than how it actually reads in Korean:
