Mike Conley: 'I don't think anybody wants it more than me'
Mike Conley: Mike Conley has spoken to the Wolves about his urgency as the playoffs begin. “I don’t think anybody wants it more than me.” I don’t think there’s anybody on either team that wants it more than me. I told the guys that, selfishly, do it for me, man. Help me out. Meet me at my level right now because I don’t got long. Y’all got forever, it feels like. But I reminded them the last time I made it deep, deep in the playoffs was like 12 years ago, so it’s not a given. You gotta be taking advantage of the moments you get. This is a heck of a team we have here and a heck of an opportunity that we don’t want to waste.

Christopher Hine: Mike Conley tried to distract Anthony Edwards by staring at him when Ant was asked about his playmaking: Ant: “He comes to me and tells me, ‘Man, it’d be a lot easier if you made the easy read.’ Throughout the whole game it’s going to lighten up. Him, Slo-Mo and Finchy.” -via Twitter @ChristopherHine / April 8, 2024
