I don’t think anyone played all that well outside of Sexton and Simone.

You can have a smart system and a smart coach and can help you get some difficult wins but eventually the collective intelligence of the NBA coaching fraternity and scouts figure things out. Plus getting tired and having a high level offense having 3 days to prepare is not a good recipe for a win.
That is the point. People acted like we were unstoppable when we were winning and now we’re the worst team ever. It’s the same team.
There are always ups and downs during the season, it’s never as good or as bad as it seems.
We’re still in the play-in and we have two weak opponents coming up.

KO was a traffic cone on defense and had some terrible moments on offense. THT was whatever in garbage time. Air-balled a layup and a step-back.

Too much jackpotting around and playing in tuxedos.
This.
I'm not sure what will happen at the trade DL or is that mentally affecting the team but I'm still eyeballing the 6th seed rather than 12th.
We beat teams without their superstars. Sixers w/o embiid, bucks w/o dame, lakers w/o lebron, pacers w/o Halliburton, heat with injured butler. Then lost badly vs Celtics. We shouldn’t be too high on that streak

It's not who we beat and in which version, but how we did it. We whopped Bucks asses in the offense for 1st half. Dame would not have changed that. Nor Halli in Pacers game. Our offense was humming against Bucks, and the effort in D was insane for most part. We made full Nuggets look like a bunch of scrubs.
