totally agree...like I said, takes a lot of luck. I think people on here greatly underestimate exactly how ridiculous of a turnaround that was, which is sort of what I was trying to point out.

Well almost certainly be a playoff team next year.

Depends on the draft and Free Agency. People shot their wad over the winstreak when Gordon came back, but I don't think this team is a playoff team even if Gordon was healthy all season.

not saying we wouldn't get swept in the first round but I definitely think we could've competed for the 8th seed with a completely healthy roster. if Gordon would've been 100% healthy at the start he would be clicking on all cylinders with our starters.

We would definitely have competed for one, but I don't think we would have gotten it. That shite Stern told Benson last year about being one player away, bull shite. We are 2 or 3 away – a solid SF option and 2 scorers off the bench.

we need consistency from aminu (or any future SF) and lopez (or any replacement of a center) I think GV, AD, and EG at 100% health next year will be good enough to keep this team competitive, but we honestly need a better rebounding/defensive center.

Since when does making a great move means breaking the bank for a so-called allstar? By great i mean making moves that can payoff in year one and years later. Most of todays big signings are desperation moves by teams with closing windows on their roster age. Thats not us. Now with being said, i hope for Bynum and any pg the office bring in. We should be fine cap wise for 2013.

Depth will be way better next year - y'all need to chill, enjoy watching the youngins compete and look forward to another fun draft and some nice savvy veteran FA additions to complete our roster for the playoffs next season
