I mean what is there to seriously talk about???!!!!!!!!!!!!
We beat another bad team who was severely depleted???!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Whopty do!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This team is a pretender!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And will never beat any good teams as long as thibs is the hc!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It’s hard to get excited and talk in-depth about a win that’s pretty much meaningless!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And We don’t just lose to the good teams!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We get embarrassed by 30 and sometimes 40+points!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So I kinda understand why there’s a lot of “trolling” going on in this postgame thread!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We’re down to our 4th and 5th string PGs and we beat a playoff team on the road!!!!!! And everyone looked good!!!!!!!
I expect our ceiling this year to be absolute max the ECF if we click in the playoffs, but I consider that an outlier event at this point. We do not play like our ceiling is higher than last year though you can say we have more starting unit talent on paper.
Our defense is not playoff-quality at this point so it would require Mitch to finally lock in and everyone to play better defensively, both man and team, to get very far this offseason.
Stranger things have happened so I'm not ruling out a hot streak and a playoff run, but I consider it pretty unlikely.
Plus, I have no faith in Thibs ability to adjust to other coach's strategies in real-time in playoff conditions so even if we are healthy and play very well I consider Thibs to be a weak link in the equation. Until he shows us otherwise, I consider Thibs to be strictly a regular season coach with limited ability to coach at a championship level. We have not beaten the better teams even one game this season, so the upcoming games against them will tell us how far we can go this year. If we get our butts kicked by CLE and BOS in those games we're not a contender.
