Oh, it'd be a disaster.

Oh, it'd be a disaster.
Yeah, I think so. What we've seen from Finch so far this season is that there have been times where he has closed with Rudy on the bench. There's been times he's closed with Randall on the bench, with Conley on the bench. There are no sacred cows with him.

I think there's been a little frustration within the fan base, especially in the first couple of months, that he kind of really stuck to an eight-man rotation and didn't really maybe incorporate Shannon or Dillingham or a few of these other guys a little bit more just to try and get them some run and see if they brought a different dimension.

But when it comes to closing time, when you're leaning on your dudes, he has proven to be pretty versatile and pretty elastic with what the game requires. What would be interesting in a Lakers series is even though when they go small, they kind of play play big, and I would worry about how the Wolves would close possessions in terms of getting rebounds.

They are kind of vulnerable to offensive rebounds, especially when Rudy is off of the floor. And the other part of a Lakers matchup is that Luka Doncic is one of the very few players in the league that isn't bothered one bit by Jaden McDaniels.
