yone else getting sick of the lack of defence every game?

The defense over this win streak has been better than what we were seeing prior to it. It hasn't been bad over the streak, just about middle of the pack.

With how good they've been offensively, middle of the pack is fine. They're giving up more points, but it's not because their defense has fallen off, it's because they're playing at a much faster pace.

Theyre averaging about 5.5 more possessions over the course of an entire game over the last 9 compared to the 54 before that. That's a lot.

So essentially, lots of points given up in the box score, but that's because the opponent is getting more possessions to score.
