I'm back in the States, god damn this team is awful :scust:

At this point I'm just waiting for the Billy King extension in March when we have 8 wins to complete our misery

I'm trying to refrain from being a homer since it's only 4 games out of 82 played, but I just don't see the doom and gloom narrative.

A few minor tweaks to the line ups, a bit of tuning up for defensive assignments, actually hiting that 3ball at an acceptable clip and the only thing bridge about this year is not expecting to win it all and that's obvious. Expecting playoffs if we can start to gel earlier on in the season.

Funniest thing is we actually been getting their since the move consistently while being written off every year while the same names placed above us every year.

Pistons, knicks, bucks, magic a couple times now, Etc,... then what happened? As far as I'm concerned we're the proven squad; not really worried tbh. I do think we need improvements though.

I just rewatched that bucks game. Lopez taken out @ 9:50ish time right when we're trying to make a run, doesn't get put back until under 1 min :dahell:

I know he was close to fouling out but if we managed to put up a better lead maybe it wouldn't of even mattered if he did foul out. I really am starting to question if getting rid of avery was ever a good idea.

Only game a felt like we were assed out was the spurs but they're legit contenders for the champs this season. Depth, stars, coach, line ups, role players, everything.

If we didn't lose lopez for the season we beat the heat :francis: don't forget we swept them that same year, 6 games straight. I'm not trying to dwell on the past what ifs or probablys to make a point like yall though :...:

This team as constructed is awful fam..playoffs is wishful thinking.

PG play in this PG dominated league is bottom of the barrel.
The depth on the wings on this team suck..again probably bottom of the barrel...that 0 for game from 3 against Chicago, or that 3-13 against memphis aren't going to be rare occasions..there is no shooting depth on this team.
Interior defense again right there at the bottom and even worse when brook comes out

The second unit with trob, shane, bogs and rhj hustle their ass off and that's nice to see..its what i look forward to when i watch

They be bringing us back in games and keeping us in it.

I really like how Bogs is playing and developing.
