Re: Terrence Shannon

And in the Knicks game Finch started with Donte, ANT and Jaden at 1 thru 3. Later in the quarter, Shannon subbed in for Donte, so it was ANT, Shannon and Jaden at 1 thru 3. It lasted for a couple minutes, after which Rob subbed in for Jaden. It's time to start phasing Mike out... My theory with thi...

Re: Pacers at Wolves Preseason GDT

In my mid 20s I could eat and drink anything and still play BB for 3 hours a day(not at any really competitive level of course), work 8 hour shift and then go out to party all night. Fast metabolism is a real thing. Now I am on the wrong side of 50 and it takes 24 hours to recover from 6 beers afte...

Re: Pacers at Wolves Preseason GDT

Some troubling questions emerged from last night’s loss: 1. Will Ant ever grow up? Ant is an incredible talent who has improved his game every season. But he still has another big step to take and that next step will require a level of maturity he has yet to achieve. His lazy defense, potato chip s...

Re: Pacers at Wolves Preseason GDT

I'm glad Lip mentioned the whining as another aspect of Ant's forgettable first game of the preseason...it was annoying and constant. This team has so much talent, and optimism on this board is high as evidenced by 2/3 of our wins predictions over the vegas line. But the maturity of our most import...

Re: Wolves at Nuggets Preseason GDT

Yeah, his defense was really solid in the pre-season game. He even drew an offensive foul. Part of that might be just him learning the ropes and maturing as a player, but my guess is a lot of it is team culture. The Wolves have made it very clear that you have to defend (or at least try to) in orde...

Re: Media Day GDT

I’m a bit concerned about Finch’s comment that it wasn't fun coaching this team last season because of some personality things. My concern is that we still have the same personalities on the roster minus NAW. I doubt NAW was the source of any personality issues. If the issue was playing time, that ...

Re: Training Camp

Ant said he's getting 7-8 hours of sleep a night and will do so all season. When asked how much he slept before, he said ahhh none of your business. Sounds like he is cleaning the little things up that add up over the course of the season.

Re: Ants post up game?

Seems like it's just to get Ant the ball in different looks and positions. I wouldn't post him up every possession, but every now and than, give it to him in the post when Rudy is out and let him get to work or hit someone for a wide open three if he gets triple teamed. Posting up against OKC is har...
