“It Feels Good. It Feels Good.” | Mike Conley Postgame Sound | 03.24.24

Like that fourth quarter unit uh really kind of got you guys lead change the change the game permanently for you guys kind of what was working for for that minutes or so yeah um honestly we were getting stops and we were running um trying to catch them off off bals before their

Defense can get set and and you got multiple Playmakers out on that group and uh you know whoever got the ball we just we told told that guy to Sprint up the court make a play um everybody just played off each other you know n you know who else in there Monte guys

Like that just being able to to find those gaps and and guys guys taken those threes you have in games pretty much Soul stretch that cat has been out just something just a product of how you guys have been playing conscious effort on everybody’s or I think it’s just a byproduct of of

The way we’ve had the since cat’s been out guys are you know you got Kyle in there you got Nas guys are just trying to feel that role by by doing something a little different guys are you know Finding gaps finding space and a lot of five out spacing sometimes

In those units where you know there is nobody in the paint um Rudy sometimes is flat in the you know underneath the basket and we’re doing guard guard guard pick and rolls where you know ants rolling and ky’s rolling so it’s just guys you know playing in different roles

And I think it’s working for us it’s allowing us to to create extra you know two-on-one opportunities for ourselves and as long as we make the play uh we’ll get a good look cutting sacrificial things all the time just like his gravity how much easier does that make off for everybody

Else man he’s he is the offense you know for the most part guys don’t recognize that but um the gravity that he has from just not even setting the screen just rolling down the middle of the floor creates a two-on-one for us and um and

We got to reward him when he gets those opportunities late in the games and in the post situations under the basket but uh he also creates you know two-on-one three-o three-point looks for you know guys who can make him and especially with our feet set and looking straight

At The Rim it’s easy opportunity so he’s a big reason why our offense can can get going that you could see patience of like when to assert himself offensively is he you seen him evolve in that way at all oh yeah he’s definitely added a lot

To his game um I don’t think he shot more floaters this year than I’ve seen him shoot uh ever but that’s cuz he’s confident he’s work he’s been working on it but um he’s allowed himself to to not get caught up in you know if he’s not

Getting the ball or not certain times in the games he knows he’ll get it he knows it you know just got to be patient um and he don’t let it affect him affect his play on both ends of the floor which is Big cuz we know what he is

Defensively and offensively can be just as big of a threat you still get those the same bulldo is he open yeah exactly exactly he’s going to get get us open when we need it uh late in the game and um we talked about it after the game

I had a layup where I just Tred to get it up on the rim and either it goes in or it doesn’t but I know if it doesn’t it’s like a you know alleyoop so you know we’ve done that a lot and getting back to it lat like it seemed like there

Was a lot of Chess kind of Chess wise going with VCH and kerr how did you how did you see that play out why is it important in this match yeah um Golden State they they have a a unique unit with those guys that they have over there um FY does you know

Tries to do a good job of of matching whoever he puts out there and they go small we stay small do we go big like those kind of lineups matter it’s really more of a playoff you know type feel of a game when you play against Golden

State cuz they they’re so smart qual Five Guys in the quarter are so connected and and for us to try to match that or try to make them match us is always going to be part of that game and tonight we uh we were able to find a way you know get the

Win you guys are kind of navigating that who’s the four sorry uh how does it feel to make somebody fall and actually make the shot after it um to answer your question a uh it it feels good feels good yeah yeah feels real good a lot in practice so feels

Good to translate in the game nor you it’s normally you I’m think you know I think about when you know we play ones you know you don’t remember when we play we playing on Ro man

  1. Glad to see his offensive productivity increase with the loss of KAT for this month. Impressed that the guys are able to continue pulling out these gritty 4th quarter wins! Go Wolves!

  2. Mike can you please keep attacking the rim? You have one of the best floaters in the NBA and drive layups. That's not even talking about your lob game to Rudy. You slow the game down and know how to turn on the jets at the perfect time. It's such a high % play opportunity man. Glad your implementing it more recently. It's affecting the whole team and flow of offense when we're not on a fast break especially 😤

    Keep pushing the team Mike. They respect and listen to you. Especially Ant and Rudy. You know how to push their buttons in the right way. Just look how Ant just jumped in your interview lol 😆 that's love man.This team will go as far as you take them bro. We believe in you man. Your the best PG we've literally ever had in MN. This is the year you and the Wolves win their first NBA Championship. Keep preaching that message and the urgency
    bro bro 💯
