I feel like this team is/has been stuck in mediocrity for a while now, and will be for the immediate future (next few years) unless something major happens and we get a superstar in a trade/free agency or discover some amazing player in the draft. That being said, they are fun to watch and follow because of how hard they try. I have no ill-will towards the team for the mediocrity because I feel like, even going back to the TMac trade and the JVG-coached teams, the right moves were made to create a championship-contending team. Sometimes the players just don't work out. TMac was being compared to Kobe when we got him, and Yao was expected to do great things. When players like that don't work out, you are stuck scrambling and making trades for guys like Martin just to keep the team competitive. I still have hope that with all the draft picks, Morey can do something amazing.
I feel like it's not too late. I am hoping that they can stay close to or go over .500 by the deadline.
