Chris Finch's tremendous outburst against Anthony Edwards

The demand is maximum in the NBA playoffs, and when holding the role of a superstar, every misstep is judged severely. This is being experienced by Anthony Edwards after the surprising defeat of the Minnesota Timberwolves against a depleted Golden State Warriors due to Curry's absence. Ant's poor performance is causing repercussions, and Chris Finch did not hesitate to criticize him.

He is still a star in the making, a generational talent who has already shown important things, but still lacks the consistency in big games that is expected of every historical player. Anthony Edwards took a big step back in his career with a truly bad game against the Warriors. Poor choices on offense, constant errors in shooting, and poor emotional management in pivotal moments led Chris Finch to lash out at his player in a press conference.

"When you are the team leader, you have to go out and set the pace of the game. If you are not accurate in shooting, you must maintain the energy. I don't think I should have to motivate anyone to give their all in a game like this. If I have to do that, then we are not on the same page. Our decision-making has been terrible, and it all started with Ant. He struggled and slowly faded away," stated the Wolves' coach.

When asked about his coach's remarks, Anthony Edwards hinted at some annoyance but avoided getting into trouble. "People will look for culprits; they can do it with me, but what has happened is that we have not played well enough. We didn't shoot well, but we will in the next game. I think I had a great defensive game, but things didn't work out for me offensively," affirmed the star of a Minnesota Timberwolves team that needs to react.
