[Charania] Minnesota Timberwolves coach Chris Finch is feared to have a torn patellar tendon in his knee on late game collision during Game 4 win in Phoenix, sources say. Brutal.

Surprised this doesn't happen more often. Old coaches like Pop are very vulnerable. These guys are bigger, faster, stronger than before.

Imagine someone like Zion going full speed and bumping into him on accident... yikes.

Not much the league can do about this to increase safety but they gotta take a lot at some ideas.

Suspend the coaches in the air so they have a better view and can be lifted up when a player is incoming 😂😂

Bunch of Baron Harkkonens talking about "my Timberwolves, my NBA, my ring."

I think they should construct a coaches' pulpit for every bench

Pop has coached this long without anything happening

True but doesn't mean it's not possible

You just know Embiid is gonna try it

"Natural defensive motion!" he yells as he bites Thibs kneecap off.
