After a 0-2 start, we finished 7-3 to get to 12-8 as we hoped 10 games ago. Winning last night against Portland kept a pattern going: we seem to be winning with a lot of different guys rising to the occasion. We have had important guys out every game but it seems our depth may stay good enough to overcome a lot of adversity. Last night it was Portland d shooting 62% from 3and overall until very late in the game.
My favorite improvement in addition to a lot of minutes for different guys is end of game good execution tentatively seems to be returning. Getting a 1-5 punch in the mouth can do that for a team if it doesn’t cause tanking first.
