Personally, I woke up at 3 AM...still sick to my stomach at the loss...the table was set, only to have our chair pulled away at the last second.
*sigh*
But today, I started thinking about where we were last year this time. What was our main questions at that time? Would IT be ready for the opener? How will Fultz fit in with this team?
Then all the changes occurred in the roller coaster off season!
We have Kyrie OMG' Irving! We wanted a Top 20...here's your sign, as Bill Engvall says!
We have Gordon Hayward! Another Top player!
Fultz who?
Tatum and Brown could be our Dynamic Duo for a decade or more!
Terry became Scary good...can he continue to improve or will he possibly help us land another important piece of the puzzle?
Thinking about those things helped ease the pain. Knowing how much Wyc HATES to not win championships, and how Danny has been able to spot diamonds in the rough makes this offseason something to get excited about also!
What will make up for the loss? Good health, good decisions by management, good draft pick(s), and lastly, a good butt whooping on the Cavs by whoever...just for the heck of it!
