You see the title. I’m not sitting here saying the season is over do not get me wrong. But a big part of the reason I expected us to be top 4 in the East is that we start the season very well.
I expect us to be better because we HAVE to be better. We are too talented of a team to be losing games like last night the way we did. I want to beat the bad/ok teams this year
Those games all add up later in the season when we start looking at seeding. We are not a contender that made a deep run last year we can’t afford to be losing too many games to inferior teams.
Another thing is we lost games the way we did last night all the time last year so no it’s not just one game. If it was a shootout like both teams just couldn’t miss that’s one thing but how we lost is a pattern from last year.
We got a light first 10 games other than Milwaukee and NY, but we already lost a game we should’ve won and we’ll be in the exact same situation as we were last year if we can’t take care of mediocre teams. So every single game is important until we solidify ourselves as one of the top 5 teams in the conference. I can’t chill on this team til we’re 5-7 games over .500
