Game 10 (TUES): NYK @ DET 7:30 EST - BJ vs the Smith Bros.

Clarity speaks the truth. For the most part, our losses have come at the hand of better teams.

The Lakers and Hawks are nothing special at all. If we can't beat those types of teams then we are a lottery team. Again, it's not WHO we are losing to but HOW we are losing. I am frustrated because we look horrendous in many critical areas of the game of basketball, not because we lost to a top team in the league.

I think the Hawks are pretty solid. Teague has been great this year, and Millsap with Horford is a formidable front court.

The loss to the Hawks came after I posted that. I agree that the Lakers are not a better team, which is why I said "for the most part". We definitely are lacking in many areas though. This isn't a disciplined team.
