Hey, yeah, I feel like Kobe in a fourth quarter.

This is the Daymore NBA podcast.

We are brought to you by prize picks coming at you late Friday night.

It's May 8th after the Wolves game three loss against the spurs.

And on this episode, as we've been doing after every game, we're going to give you some immediate reactions to what just happened for tonight.

That was the Wolf 7 point loss.

So we'll talk about what we saw on the floor from that loss,

but we will also give you some immediate reactions to what the players and Finch said

in their postgame press conferences.

Yeah, to do all of that, Kyle Teigy is in town.

He's here in studio with me.

Yeah, you want to just jump right into this?

Biggest takeaways?

Yeah, might as well just start with this because I was thinking this the entire game.

Ant starts tonight in game three after kind of being on a minute's restriction we can talk about that minute's restriction that no longer exists by the way um but he starts alongside

mike conley mike conley plays four minutes uh minus 10 had two rebounds one turnover um the timberwolves

now for the rest of the series are going to have to figure this whole thing out with seven guys. There are seven guys in my mind now they can play. Mike, I'd be shocked if Mike starts in game four. I really would. Bones pregame talking to Finch. Someone asked him, like, what do you need to see from Bones? After a couple tough games, he goes, he needs to score. That was me. Play. So that's kind of what the cool thing about playoff basketball is, right? As you move throughout one round to the other, as you start to see, it's kind of like a game of survivor, like who is left standing. And for this team, there's seven guys now. And then you have to figure out which of those guys play well together, right? I mean, obviously, like the Rudy and Julius situation, I don't love, but then do you play a lot of Nas and Julius in game four together? There's just, there's certain combinations really work. I was back tonight.

He gave them,

I thought,

really good minutes. We should talk about Nas Reid, who I thought had maybe his best game in the playoffs. But, but I want to say all that because there are, for a team that was so deep, you lose Dante, like some of the Kyle stuff at the end of the regular season was fun. Like, It is now seven guys that are going to have to battle

a historically, historically good player tonight

that I think posted a stat line in Victor Wimbunyama, 39, 15, and 5.
