What's new

Could we be in the title race this year?

IMO, we are a top 4 team in the west, which makes us a contender. Our biggest weakness is nobody to match up with big PFs, which is only an issue if we face the Lakers or Giannis.
 
I'm concerned that some of our 'dad-bod' wings will struggle in the playoffs due to their lack of athleticism. If you remember the Houston series last year, Joe Ingles and Kyle Korver were pretty much neutralized by the Rockets' switching defense. You need guys who are athletic and strong enough to put the ball down and create a bucket one on one in playoff situations. Right now, we have Donovan and Jordan Clarkson, but it would be helpful if we had an athletic wing who could do this as well. Rayjon Tucker is also a possibility and our other G-leaguers Brantley and Morgan could come into play if we can get them some reps.

I would put mudiay in with the players that can put the ball down and create a bucket one on one too. Though your overall point still stands. We need a couple more of those type guys

I'm certain we'd beat the Nuggets in a series.

I'd feel confident that we'd beat the Rockets or Mavs in a series.

We match up well against the Clippers and I think we'd have a good chance against them.

I'd put our odds against the Bucks at like 50/50. We've played well against them.

The two possible matchups I worry about are the Lakers and Raptors.
 
against virtually all scrubs.

While this is true, we aren't playing well because of poor competition. We're playing well because we're playing well. We played like **** against every type of opponent early in the season which hurt our numbers.
