This is the best break down I’ve ever heard from Finch of a couple of Wolves young players who showed out tonight. Then goes on to discuss team a bit.
Starts off talking about Garza, answering questions about him. His answers are why I called Garza a young Jokic-type early this summer. (caught flak for that) Truly listen to Finch’s answers. One thing Finch says is he believes he’s an NBA player and if another team were to give him a chance they would just need to commit to playing through him offensively. Sounds every bit like hearing Nuggets head coach talk about how they decided to build around Jokic and committed to him. Finch understandably mentions another team giving him a chance as he says they only have room for him as an emergency big given the contracts to current bigs here.
Talks Miller a bit, referencing Vando, and it’s cool hearing his plan for how they will help him develop.
Slim-Ticket
This is unrelated to Luka and the young guys but it’s nice to hear how the team is getting along and buying in. Rudy only got 1 FG but he didn’t care, it’s just how things happened. Loved that Finch acknowledged how Rudy’s presence alone created 8 open corner threes + other wide open shots because of his rolling gravity.
Many fans don’t realize that impact: possible 24+ points right there, not even including the points saved with his defense.
