Reflects poorly on Finch. Good coaches find ways to win close games. Daigneault is the better coach.

I said earlier I don't question finch, so I have to say this gently. But Jaden only 31 minutes tonight? He's clearly our #2 at this point and tonight he was our #1 starter. Very curious why he sat so much in the 2nd half. I know the bench was cooking, but c'mon.

I just think we have a clunky roster. Trying to fit round pegs in square holes. We've got this far based on talent alone, but no the salary cap will come into really haunt us.

Daigneault has a team of swiss army knife players who know and play with in their roles.

OKC has a legit Big Three, Wolves do not.

Edwards cant have 13 shots in a must win. Thats on the coach.

I don't want to hear Ju say anything about sitting to the media before the next game. I don't want to hear he was pissed. He should avoid the question, or just say i respect the coach's decision.

We tightened up our turnover issues in the 2nd half of the season, but OKC is historically good at forcing them. Just a tough team to try to dribble through. Hell, even Jokic was coughing it up all over the place against them.

WW, I think we already have that, need to find #3. Maybe it's TSJ.

It's not McDaniels even though he rises to the occasion in the playoffs.

If Jaden was doing this consistently in the regular season he could be the third guy, but he has too many 9 points, 3 rebound games.
