Feeling Better About This Team

Get rid of American players and build around Rudy and other international players as the core because foreign players are more loyal than Americans today. Don't see Giannis, Jokic,Luka wanting a "Bigger Market".
European players all likes to shoot they play zero defense. Rudy and giannis are exemptions but man, alot of them can't defend.
 
I'm honestly still not sure how to feel about the team. There's a part of me that thinks we could make a deep run to the conference finals or possibly even the finals, and then part of me feels like there's a chance we get beat in the first round.

True, but I absolutely love how our roster is constructed this year. Best team on paper ever, so deep! And Whiteside is the perfect antidote for when Gobert starts getting knocked around. I really feel like those guys feed off from each other.

I'm so glad that Clarkson played like he did, but it showed me that we desperately need another guy who can manufacture points. Conley and Bojan were completely taken out of the game for long stretches yesterday. Phoenix's length and trapping of Donovan limited his opportunities and we didn't capitalize on his passing on the 4th as well as we should have.

Rudy and Whiteside did a phenomenal job of rebounding the offensive glass giving us much needed 2nd chance points. Clarkson played as well as he has all year. Chris Paul was out, and we barely won. I'm happy to win, but we got work to do.
 
Warriors have just lost 5 of their last 7 games, and their remaining schedule has some tough matchups. I'm starting to wonder if the Jazz can catch them in the standings. A 2nd-rd matchup with Memphis should be advantageous if the Jazz can get it.

Getting beat in the first round would not be a surprise. 6-7 legit teams in the West. I think making it out of the 2nd round will require a lot of things to tip our way.
 

I’m not too worried about seeding… would be more worried about matching up with Denver in the first round if Murray is somewhat healthy. Would be nice to avoid Phoenix until conference finals but the catastrophic first round failure is the scenario that is most concerning

I'm as curious as anyone to see what the Nuggets look like with Murray and MPJ returning. They'll have more firepower and some sorely needed depth. However, their defense might end up being terrible. Murray, Barton and MPJ are mediocre defenders, Forbes doesn't defend, and Cousins has been getting real minutes behind Jokic
