they have some talent and are young but i'd be shocked if they made the playoffs this year. i think they're going to be far too inconsistent this year to make the playoffs. they've been playing much better after their terrible start, but i expect them to have some more bad runs that offset the good ones. maybe next year though.
You're right about the consistency. More often than not they've been doing great the 1st half of games, and then start to fall apart the 3rd and 4th quarter. It's be hard to tell how much is their poor execution and how much it's the opposing teams ramping up their defense.
