The losing streak has been brutal. But so has this early schedule. Numerous back to backs. Playing tough teams. A depleted roster. But looking at the standings and it doesn’t really look as bad as it felt.

• Clippers and Wemby’s Spurs have only 1 win more than us.
• Suns and Cavs (who are on a similar timeline as us) have only 2 wins more.
• We are still only 4 games back from the 6th seed. 71 games left.

Just saying. I don’t know how the season will shake out but it’s early.
