    Team defense is inconsistent but we'd have a much better record if we could throw the ball in a swimming pool for a change...we've been cold shooting pretty much from day one

    1. We had a chance to upgrade at PF - but the Zach injury killed that.
    2. Whiteside has been OK, but even at his best Whiteside < Nurk + Kanter.

    I don't think it's too early to think about picks. I am pretty close to planning a draft party.

    I don’t think it’s that bad. Healthy Nurk, healthy Zach, Simons a year better, a lottery pick to be used for immediate help in a trade plus trading the huge expiring contracts of Whiteside and Baze for better fits...

    It’s not that bad. I hope we win but by next summer we will feel better when we have more weapons to use to get better
