Trey has to get back on the court asap. We could be looking at 4-10

Trey began on court conditioning over two weeks ago. He should be back for the nuggets/lakers for sure. CJ and Herb could also be back in another 10 days. But who knows with this damn organization.

Clark said Trey played 4 on 4. I think we’ll have him versus the Nets. If Zion can stay healthy we should get some wins.

What does our record have to be for Willy to be on the hot seat. I know we have injuries so that gives him some leeway

I would say 10 games under .500. We should get some guys back soon so I don’t think that’ll happen.

Cavs won because they played with more pace and get into there offense quicker. We’re never going to be elite until we do that consistently.

Dejounte has a lot to do with that.

It really depends on if Zion plays, if he does I could see us getting at least 2 wins out that stretch possibly 3 if things fall our way.

With all these injuries early on we can only hope for play in now, I'm just hoping we can get in that 7,8 range.

No, Cavs won because they have all of their players.

Pels are losing because we have 60-70-80 (depending on scoring on a particular night) points out with injury currently, and we only have 5-6 guys on the court that will be in our full time rotation with BI, Zion, Hawk, Missi, Theis, and can probably add Boston to this.

We will lose a bunch of games until CJ, Herb, DJ and Trey get back, it’s just the reality of the situation of a team having 4 of its top 6 out, the good news is once they’re back just like we will have 4-6 straight losses, we can easily go on 4-6 game win streaks.

This MASH unit squad brings the effort but I’ll be damned if this team isn’t cursed with injuries. We didn’t get one game of Murray/Zion.

They have an offense. Thought our guys played hard last night but when shorthanded you need to rely on scheme. We have none. Dribble, dribble, dribble, shoot.

I've said repeatedly that they have to steal some games and tread some water before CJ and Herb and Trey come back.

We have to be within 4-5 games of .500 when DM comes back.

Anything more is a tough hill to climb

Yeah that’s what I’m saying. I don’t get why we ran an actual scheme for 1 game and then when Murray got hurt we revert back to iso ball. It doesn’t make sense to me.

And this brings me to my issue with our tenured stars. When they need to carry this team on their backs and will them, they tend to have good games by a star's standard when we need them to have great games by giving the team 40-50 with everything else thing bring to the table. We see this time and time again, their best simply isn't good enough to carry the team to wins and that is really unfortunate. You put a Tatum and Brown in a deficit and they'll go HAM and win you some games. We are 2-4 with both Ingram and Zion playing, that should not be acceptable after 5 seasons going into their 6th season together.

But Tatum and Brown are surrounded by a lot more talent. Its a big reason they can go Ham- helps having guys like Horford, Holiday, White and others on the team. On top of that Mazzula is really good coach.

Lets be honest look at who is around BI and Zion. We were playing 2 way players or guys like JRE who shouldn’t be in the rotation. On top of that, Willie is not even a top 15 coach in this league. Yes Zion and BI need to be better but lets keep it real. Hard to win with the rotation guys we have.

I think its poor coaching and planning. They basically planned the whole season and scheme around Murray- players and coaches have admitted this.
