They've mostly been close games against good teams. With the way we're playing, we'll steal a few games from the good ones and blow out the bad ones.
I'll start worrying when we lose road games to bad teams. Very hard to beat teams like the Lakers and Clippers when its 8 on 5 on the road.
Last year teams just played around with us and finished the job in the 3rd, never really taking us seriously. Now they have to play hard until the end to get a win. Sooner or later we will start to win on the road.
We have had a very tough road schedule, only bad loss was against Spurs and that was a choke. We also choked the Clipper game and lost very tight games to Lakers and Mavs. This team is competing but the guys who need to step up to close out road games are still very young (Sengun, Jalen, Jabari). Not surprised they haven't been able to figure it out yet but it'll come.
Has little to do with worrying, they will win on the road against mediocre teams but mediocre teams might also win.... So it is more like a 52-48 situation, you can guess who is who in that situation.
Almost all one or two possession games. Young team makes mistakes in the clutch. I’m encouraged they are fighting hard and keeping games close against good teams on the road.
The Net rating and Defense was too insane either way, injuries and long season will bring it down, it is only logical but great job overall to the entire staff and players.
They play better with a sparcely filled lower bowl because of the proximity of the walls to their practice court.
