Is there any PT members who believe Chauvin intentionally killed Floyd?

I don’t. Should have been at most manslaughter.

To answer your question, No. However, neither murder charge required an intent to kill in order to convict. So I am not sure what you are going for here.

No one intentionally throws away their life and career by killing someone in front of several witnesses who are video recording it, unless they are insane.
And if they are insane, they aren't guilty due to that.

I’m not even sure Chauvin caused or hastened his death

neither murder charge required an intent to kill in order to convict. So I am not sure what you are going for here.
It's also called felony murder. To prove this count, prosecutors had to show that Chauvin killed Floyd while committing or trying to commit a felony — in this case, third-degree assault. They didn't have to prove Chauvin intended to kill Floyd, only that he intended to apply unlawful force that caused bodily harm.
WHAT ABOUT THIRD-DEGREE MURDER?
For this count, jurors must find Chauvin caused Floyd's death through an action that was “eminently dangerous” and carried out with a reckless disregard for and conscious indifference to the loss of life.
SECOND-DEGREE MANSLAUGHTER?
Prosecutors had to show that Chauvin caused Floyd's death through culpable negligence that created an unreasonable risk, and that he consciously took the chance of causing severe injury or death.
US News
A lot of posters are opining that Chauvin was NOT GUILTY, based upon a lack of intent. With all due respect, those posters should take a closer look at the elements of the three crimes on which he was convicted.

That’s why I asked the question, how many people believe Chauvin knew he was killing Floyd?

Nope. He is a dick.. But he didn't do it on purpose.

I do not understand the concept of guilty to all 3 charges? Personally, manslaughter/negligent homicide!

Probably very few. I would bet my next paycheck that even the prosecutor doesn't think it was an intentional killing.

They are separate crimes and the jury decided guilty/not guilty on each count separately, without regard to their decision on the other charges.
