Recently, Minnesota Timberwolves head coach Chris Finch appeared on Zach Lowe's live podcast in Minneapolis. There were plenty of great moments from Finch's appearance, but perhaps the best moment came early on, shortly after Finch took the stage. Finch joked that three quarters of the audience will go home and do a podcast, and then added that it will qualify you to coach the Lakers.
