Wolves Secure 8th Seed Despite Tempers Flaring | Pistons Shift Dwane Casey From Coach To Front Office | Rockets Move On From Stephen Silas
Episode description
Jackson Gatlin (@JTGatlin) is joined by Ben Beecken (@Locked On Wolves) to discuss the Minnesota Timberwolves anger management activities that occurred with Jaden McDaniels, Rudy Gobert and Kyle Anderson on their way to securing the 8th seed in the Western Conference with a big win against the New Orleans Pelicans. What went wrong early against the Pelicans that led to McDaniels' frustration and subsequently the Gobert/Anderson altercation? How did the Wolves respond in the second half? How did Anthony Edwards step up minus two starters? Will Gobert miss the play-in game Tuesday against the Lakers? How does Minnesota match up with Los Angeles?
Then, Ku Khahil (@Locked On Pistons) swings by to break down the Detroit Pistons decision to move on from Dwane Casey as their head coach and move him into a front office role with the organization. What is the best way to describe Casey's tenure as the Pistons head coach? Biggest shortcomings? Why the move to the front office? Who are the candidates currently linked to the Pistons coaching job? What happens if the Pistons get the No. 2 overall pick?
Lastly, Jackson (@Locked On Rockets) talks about the Houston Rockets deciding to not bring Stephen Silas back as their head coach next season and why it was time for a much needed change in Houston. Why was now the time to move on from Silas and not sooner? What did Silas do well/struggle with as a head coach? Is he a victim of the Rockets rebuild? Who are the current head coaching candidates linked to Houston?
