We can't win game when nobody got rebound and some don't play defense....as long as we don't fixed that, we will remain a 50% winning team.

This team is such hot garbage.
There is just so much wrong from a coaching and personnel perspective, it's utterly unfixable.

Our starting PG is cooked and should retire and we don't even play a backup PG, we play a mediocre backup SG there.
Our starting C has zero offensive skill and gets thrown around like a rag doll by anyone with even moderate strength, and we don't even play a backup C, we play an extremely poor defending 6'8 guy.

Those 2 positions are key to everything your team does and we are probably worst in the league at both the 1 and the 5.

I see no real way we don't send a lottery pick to the Jazz this summer.

They are going to write manuals in the future about how NOT to GM a team based on Tim Connelly's time here.

Houston is completely mediocre. They shoot like 41% from the floor and 30% from 3. That's awful.
It's pathetic they are a top 4 team in the west.

They're just extremely well coached and play hard and unselfish.

I'd put that one in the positivity thread, I'm not that optimistic.

They are one of 4 teams that has won 70% of their games this season. Absolutely not mediocre.

The League is mediocre.

OKC and Memphis are good in the West.
Denver and Dallas are good but struggling.

Everyone else is mediocre.

Maybe so. But then by those parameters, the pre-trade roster would be mediocre and in cap hell.

And starting SF can't shoot and have limited offensive game
