6-5 soon feels good

Derozan
Lowry
Ibaka
Valanciunas
Van Vleet
Delon Wright
Lebron
Embiid

There are only 2 teams in the league that rank in the top 6 in offensive and defensive efficiency: the Golden State Warriors and the Toronto Raptors.

Really easy stretch of games here i think 7-3 should be the minimum expectation for this group over the next 10

Trap game, this team has an endless amount of scrubs, impossible to know which one will go off. Really need to stomp these guys into the dirt, win by 20+.

No easy games in the association.

Pistons barely beat a Wizards team last night. Pulled off a miraculous win.

With that being said, anything less than a 50 point win tonight would be disappointing.

Wizards actually have some good players... Nets literally have 2 with the rest being borderline nba players at this stage of their careers.

Yup, if we letting random guys like Waford get Triple doubles on us imagine the scrubs on the Nets.

Feels like we've barely played at home this season. 4 of the next 5 are on the road as well....

All things considered 5-5 is a fine record through 10 games.

It's more than fine coming off the last 2 seasons of garbage we had to endure. I believe ours is also the 3th hardest SoS to start the season. I know everyone wants to go from 30 wins straight to 55 while beating all the contenders along the way, but it typically doesn't work like that.

Having said that, a loss tonight is unacceptable.

Record is good. Just the way we lost game 2 to 5 was horrendous and concerning.

I think Pistons were missing like 6 key players, that's why Cade took 45 shots.....but I still agree you can't take any team lightly.

There's a funny Lakers tweet where they were celebrating the Hawks missing a few players thinking it was going to be an easy win...then they got blown out.

A lot of jinxes in here. But tbh this is the easiest win I have ever seen. Lets just focus on the next opponent

5 of these next 10 games are against 3 of the bottom 4 Net Rating teams in the league so far (Nets/Wizards/Pacers). The combined record of those 3 teams is 3-28.
