    Right now we are just an inconsistent team throughout the game. The inconsistency to me is what causes every game to be close versus us just playing to the level of the competition.

    I do like that we are showing toughness late in games though. Russ and Tucker is a good combo to have late in games.

    The Rockets scare me!
    Will they get it together? Or are we witnessing the final product?

    We will see how the season shapes up to be. Right now every team is in adjustment period. You cant see teams full strength until maybe post all star break

    The rockets scare me because our defense is balls.

    Question is what playoff team would be afraid of the Rockets and their no-defense philosophy?

    Everyone keeps bringing up the Lakers but that team won't survive stretches without Lebron or AD, which they will definitely have to do for both of those guys to make it to the playoffs. The team that scares me the most are the Mavs. Luka and Porzingis are gelling well together and they have a pretty decent rotation. I hope I'm wrong but that's my pick.
