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.
Cade lost an entire year of development. We did not have a James Harden to trade for assets. We did not have a Nikola Vucevic to trade for Franz Wagner. We are missing 2 shooters and a decent defensive player. Our center of the future has been injured as well. These things are not excuses, these are facts. Being the team with the least amount of wins sucks, being on a 8 game losing streak sucks, looking at other rebuilding teams doing bettwr than us sucks, but we still have a lot of games to go. We will not be a play off team this year, but we have something to build on.
