@JaceFrederick He needs to be the #2 option at this point for this team! A lot of times he gets lost when Ant and Randle be hunting their shots. He is a nightmare match up for almost everyone when he's aggressively looking for his shot.
Watched back Jaden's performance from Game 6 one last time
Marvel at his ability to produce at a No. 1 level while, for 90% of the game, his attacks come -- in transition, off the catch or through next-action basketball.
An ideal fit for Finch-ball
@TimGarrisonMN My biggest worry with Jaden on Fox would be picking up quick fouls on Jaden and now he has to sit. But you may not have another option. Donte would have been the ideal guy. SMH.
I firmly believe this to be a pivotal series in the career of De’Aaron Fox.
Minnesota has struggled with small, quick guards for some time. It’s not typically Jaden McDaniels’ forte. That said, he’s a different animal in the playoffs.
The last example of a quick guard in the postseason was Kyrie Irving. Across 93 possessions Jaden held Kyrie to 6/14 shooting from the floor and 4 turnovers. Fairly good work.
This postseason it was Toumani Camara that had success on Fox, holding him to 5/19 shooting from the floor with 4 turnovers across 107 possessions.
So while there is a prevailing narrative from the regular season that Jaden struggles with small guards, maybe some playoff physicality and want to helps keep him in front of Fox.
Either way, Fox should test this matchup early and often. It could be a great pathway to opening up the rest of their offense against what will be the most physical and imposing defense this young Spurs team has faced to date.
This exact situation is why you go bring in a veteran PG to compliment a young and upcoming group of talent. Let’s see if it pays off.
@JohnErickson107 John's the best! Had him consign a big card for me and it sold within the same day! Great communication throughout and payment was prompt! Deal with confidence!

I need some opinions from the card community on this one! My friend pulled a Topp Chrome Tom Brady ultra violet out of a hanger box 🤯
He’s a Steelers fan so doesn’t want to keep it and is trying to decide if he should grade it or sell it raw.
Take a look at the centering below and please let me know if you would grade or sell raw. Thanks in advance!

@JonKrawczynski@mitsuaki They were playing too fast to start the game which led to some carelessness with the ball. More TSJ please. I know he can be a defensive liability at times but his offense is SO needed!
Initially thought the Wolves lacked urgency last night, which led to carelessness with the ball. After talking to coaches and players, seems it was actually more guys trying to do too much without Ant and Donte. Maybe they’ll settle in for Game 6
