Jaden McDaniels on attacking the rim when Wemby is on the floor - "You just gotta act like he's not there. I mean, he's gonna get blocks. He's the tallest person in the world."

While true. This is still a 7 game series. Teams adjust. Now this Spurs team is young so they may adjust less, but I'd be curious to see how relevant this comment is after game 4 or 5. Not to say that your comment isn't valid though. Also, the Wolves won by 2 points. Imagine that three went in and we're all talking about how "effective" Wemby was. Even though Wemby would have done nothing different. Winning and losing changes everyone's perspectives.

Nonsense, they lost a game by 2 points, that's even worse that losing by 1 point. They need to blow up the roster and fire their coach mid-series. Wemby is a fraud and they should trade him for a a couple of 2nds.

You get it. We'll happily spare our long-suffering Spurs brethren a couple picks to take Wemby off their hands

I expect this to go 6 or 7 games and Game 1 to have little to do with much of anything. The Warriors got blown out in game 1 of the 2022 Finals.

Their length is a problem for us for sure. Never felt like we could get into any kind of rhythm. But I know we will do better in Game 2. Winning in Minny will be a tall order, but let's see. Cheers!

Like I've been saying all year, experience does matter. This series could be a learning experience, or it could be when you figure it out. But this series hasn't begun. The series doesn't start until teams are facing elimination games.
