Something we knew at the beginning of the season. Don’t let everyone coming out the woodworks to shyt on us change that. A year of cohesion, another year of all our guys in their fresh primes and hopefully bench upgrades this summer and we’ll be ready to contend.
I love this take.

:russell: all this fukkin February panicking all over Twitter kills me

1. I've been waiting to see how the team and lineups look with Mitch back and hopefully everyone healthy for a good stretch
2. it was always tough to believe THIS season would be "the year", since it's year 1 of a brand new team and replacing iHart is key
3. we need to find consistent 3pt shooting this offseason

The defense is just really bad this year & I'm not sure why this doesn't really alarm some of the optimists more. And to me it's not a chemistry thing either, it's a lack of effort on some of the players. KAT & Bridges seem like they have no dog or fight in them. But part of the defensive issues are on Thibs as well. That's what concerns me the most & what we took the biggest hit on. Without even looking at the stats, it seems JB has been better defensively this year than his last couple of seasons

the biggest issue is that y'all are last in opp 3pt%. Y'all made a living off of hoping the opposition had a cold night from outside. That's not happening, especially with the Boston's of the league.

Exactly, are 3pt defense has been a glaring issue all season long. And with Bridges & OG, you would assume that shouldn’t be an issue.
