We are better than last year?

[BrunoSOC]

For real. Im not sure, we not win a big game so far. We beat suns, Pelicans and pacers. Lost to 2 playoff teams in crunch time. Are we good enough to make the playoffs? It's on CJ ? What a terrible loss yesterday. Makes me sad for real.


Next Games: Suns, Raptors, @jazz and lakers. What you guys expected ? I think we can go 4-0

Calm down, sip some tea, smoke a blunt and continue to watch this team gel. They haven't really gelled with Nurk yet IMO.

You can't judge them yet. Wait till about 25 games in.

Think about it:

It took miraculous plays to beat us. Blake doesn't hit that shot if he gets it another 9x. I truly believe he'd be 1/10 in that situation.

We will learn. We will be better.

positive side is that were not playing as expected, so it can only get better (at least in theory), those two losses hurt, not cause we lost, but the way we lost those games, so when you look at the bigger picture, were not playing good, but still won 3 games and lost 2 close games

We lost to two decent teams in crunch time on plays that don't happen a high % of time. We are fine and better then last year, it'll show itself over the long run.

I trully believe that

 

[GrandJury]

We are about the same as the last 2 years

Nothing special. Solid low 40s win team

It’ll continue to be like that until we have 1 more special player

 

[Denny Crane]

We have the same record as Crabbe's new team.

OH NO!

Cleveland lost to them. Do you think Cleveland fans are really concerned about that?

Wins against the Cavs count.

Maybe the Nets have actually improved this season.

4-0 would have people back to singing the praises of the team.

 

[Denny Crane]

We're on pace to win 49 games (yeah, it's small sample size). 49 seems about right to me.

Too soon to tell, really.

Boooo negative Nancy

Seriously if Blake missed we wouldn’t even have this thread

Totally agree. I just started a Stotts thread that would probably not be there either.

So my prediction is on pace.

And you came to this conclusion after 5 game? Your amazing insight is perspective gaining.

No, but it would have been started after the loss to the suns tomorrow. These people are nut jobs!

I'm not sure about that. If we won, I would be happy, and think we got somewhat lucky. Clippers played fantastic defense and their front line dominated us. Even if we won I would have been concerned for the future of this team competing. Blazers looked like a first and out team last night.

 

[tlongII]

We are MUCH better than last year.

They seem better on defense and maybe worse on offense? ... Other than that, there's just not enough data. Give it another month.

 

[Drttimmy]

I don't think there is any question. Before acquiring Nurkic, we were prime for a top 10 pick and deservedly so. We're so much more balanced now and probably a 6th to 8th seed type team. I think we're in the same boat as the Clippers and Bucks at the moment, which makes those losses so deflating, because if we had thumped them, I'd feel more hopeful we're closer to the 3rd to 5th seed tier. Not yet, apparently. Right now, I think we're similar, performance wise, to the last year with Aldridge on the team.

The Clippers game was the first I watched in monthes and it was exceptional. Need to get more fire under our asses to actually win more but I enjoyed it very much
