  1. they are definitely relying on him too much but it isn't so simple. JA, garland, strus have all missed significant time. Hunter has been a nice pickup, lonzo also. but they are playing proctor, cpj, jaylon, and it is good for them to get experience but they are definitely not at full strength. it is still too early to make a lot of assumptions. the fact they are winning most of their games is a plus, without a full roster. We are biased because of last season and the winning percentage they had.

  2. There’s a landslide between Don and the other members of the so called core 4. It’s not even funny. In a perfect world, I would have traded all the other 3 to get him Giannis, that kid Rollins for point guard duties, and someone like Gafford. This would make us a contender without a doubt.

  3. Too many games missed by too many people. Garland, Merrill, and Allen missing a ton of games as well as Ball missing games and very underwhelming in the games he does play is leading to them depending on Mitchell too much. They're not a very good rebounding team and they're bad from the free throw line. Too many long scoring droughts in the course of these games.

  4. Darius Garland is too cool for basketball and cares more about what his hair looks like or how the uniform oooks on him. Not a winner. Good kid but gotta cut ties because he is not a number 2 or 3 on a championship team.
