[Frederick] Finch asked about the maturity the team showed tonight: “the maturity comes when you stack performances like this on top of each other, so that remains to be seen.”

I love that this is being said publicly. This is the standard they need to set. Everybody knows they’ve got the players on the roster to do it.

The way they played tonight is something they can do literally every single game. The offense was just solid, nothing special. But they still kicked the shit out of the Nuggets between defensive intensity, rebounding, and hustle.

    Yup, if this team can find consistency, the finals are the ceiling.

    Not resting on laurels starts at the top and that’s Finch. Good to see him making it plain this win isn’t anything to be proud of until they do it again and again

    Not the biggest fan of Finch but it’s finally nice to see a quote like this out of him. The biggest frustration with this team remains being one of the most talented teams in the entire league, and yet constantly losing games they shouldn’t lose. We could easily be a 55 win team with the talent on this roster. Just need to buckle in and play good, clean basketball every single time you step on the court.

    I’m not sure he has ever had a better quote than that

    Exactly . Need to make teams beat you not the ups and downs they always have. Beating a top team then going out losing to a bottom feeder . They aren’t going to win every game and they aren’t all going to be won the same way but they just got to adjust and find ways to come out with the victory. That’s where ant towns and Conley need to step it up when a game is slipping .
    Thats when this team will reach a new level!!

    If things go slightly different this team is 4-0 and looking very legit. Seems like we have a lot of potential is these guys figure things out by the end the of regular season.
