If you knew before the season that they'd be tied for 6th at this point of the season, you'd probably be happy with that. It's just that they took a weird route to get there. But that's kind of the problem. A mediocre team playing mediocre basketball for an entire season you'd be like "well ok then." To get off to a good start and knock off teams like the Warriors and Celtics along the way and generally playing like a good basketball team in the first 20 games of the season. They were solid defensively, they had good movement on offense, they were hitting their shots. I honestly would have rather we were just awful and started a full rebuild because we punted on paying KCP by acquiring Avery Bradley, and now we have to decide how much we want to go into the luxury tax for the sake of keeping together a team that's gonna barely be above .500. That's why it's depressing. So you mean just like the Magic started out hot and now are a huge disappointment even though we are playing at our level now <cite>ShatteredElysium posted [p:891977063] in NBA Discus...
