Finchy seemed to move into the path to catch him, so maybe they should share it ;)

I'd actually never heard of Finch being Finchy until this incident.

You must not ever watch the interviews. They call him Finchy all the time.

I often watch the interviews. I never noticed Finchy until now.

I finally got around to listening to the Jon Krawcinski podcast with Tim Connelly. He raved about Mike, what a good guy he is, and how he wants to keep him in the organization after he retires, joking he can do anything, maybe even replace him!

I also think I heard that Connelly’s right hand man, Matt Lloyd, turned down the chance to GM the Hornets, so he could stay here!

I think he deserves teammate of the year just for accepting bite bite as his nickname (however reluctantly,) but I wonder if his minutes might be reduced against Denver in favor of NAW. I could see Mike starting around 28 and being down to 18 by the end of the series.

I think it's hard to predict as it will depend on score, fouls... but i agree. Most important is to keep Mike min for the clutch time as he is very important and efficient when it matters the most. Go Wolves!

Sorry if this is a duplicate post. I didn’t see it in this thread and it popped up in my YouTube videos. Mike getting interviewed by TNT crew after winning teammate of the year.

I just saw that Mike Conley isn’t even one of the six nominees to win another Sportsmanship award this season.

He already has four, which is a record.
