It's, it's such a hilarious thing.

outrageous theme but i mean they're down 30 yeah in the first half to dallas at home the product is just really bad and you know i think part of it is like the cat mike brown thing has gotten worse as the season has gone on and that's just a bad spot to be in uh it's it's just not what you want the

we can harp on the issues with the roster.

The fact that their point of attack defense is not very good.

The fact that, you know, the offense is, is not elite, which like it needs to be top two or three in order for this team to be a contender.

The fact that OGM and OB and, and Mikael Bridges have fallen off in the last month or, or,

Jalen Brunson is having, in my opinion, I think the worst defensive season of his career as well.

Cat gets a lot of flack on that end, but it's Brunson too.

The bench can be inconsistent, but like ultimately it's just, you gotta have some amount of energy.

The only guys on the team who I would say like come out both sides of the floor and

I never really have ever said to myself all season, that guy's energy and effort is not there.

There are only two guys.

I guess McBride would be the third.

McBride can get into the slog, but I don't think he doesn't play hard.

But Mitchell Robinson and Josh Hart are the two who really stand out.

I'm like, those guys are going for throats.

But even Mitchell Robinson is not having...

his best defensive season because he's on minutes restrictions and he has injuries.

And I think he feels like he can't be as reckless as he often wants to be because of the risk of injury and all of that.

And, you know, they sit him so often and it's, it's just, they're not in a good place right now.
