not how I remember it.
generally td pels were looking at 4 or 5 as best; 6th was common guess
and playin was the floor.
irl warriors and memphis are Above .500.
41 losses is not getting into 10th even.
I expected Pels to be in the 7-10 scrum. like Memphis.
Lmao no
For Christ sake Lebrun and Curry are about to kick off the play in but a team barely a full NBA year removed from the #1 overall pick was SUPPOSED to make the playoffs.

I mean the problem is, our team was closer to being good than our record indicates. If we were simply average at closing games out we would have been the 5/6 seed and if we were slightly above average at closing games out, we would have been fighting for the 3rd or 4th seed. I know that sounds fricking crazy, but it’s true if you go through our games one by one and see the truly ridiculous fashion we lost about 20 of them in. I’m not saying we should have won all of them, just simply be average at closing them out. For 45 minutes a game, we were arguably a top 8-10 team in the league. In the last 3 minutes we were a bottom 3 team. Part of that is being a young team, but part of it is also being a dumb team that also doesn’t value winning the way it should. To fix those issues, we will probably will have to bring in some new blood that not only has basketball iq, but the proper desire to win, even if that means bringing in borderline assholes that aren’t afraid to hold their teammates and coaching staff accountable for blunders that ultimately cost you games.

your post is about now.
curry vs lebron for the 7th.
after the fact.
in off season all td pels posts had pels at least in 7-10 scrum and most were 6 or better.
remember?
