Totally confused why they're playing so badly.
#2 offensive rating, which is really good. #27 defensive rating, which is really bad. Both of those cancel out and leave them with 15th overall rating. Trae Young plays a big role in both of those, of course, but they also have other bad defenders like Huerter, Bogdan, and Gallinari playing major minutes. Probably also a little too much believing of their own hype after making the conference finals last year.
