Feels like the C's best chance is at the 4th seed the way they and Atlanta look right now.
Yep, was just thinking that. And it sucks because Atlanta is our worst potential first round matchup, so we can't just necessarily rest players and fall to the sixth seed now. I'm actually not too worried about Miami or Charlotte, because we matchup really well with both of them. So fourth or fifth will be okay with me, because we've shown that we can win on the road, especially against both Charlotte and Miami, though that does mean we're facing Cleveland in the second round rather than potentially in the ECF.
Lol can we even win against them at this point? I mean, we just look horrid. Jae has to be like a savior or something.
People really underestimate how much losing Jae hurts. It's not so much that Jae is THAT good. Rather, it's that we have absolutely NO WING DEPTH. When you play Turner at the 3, you shrink the floor due to his lack of three point shooting (same with Smart), and you lose a lot of the wing defense and tenacity. A lot of our issues lately have definitely stemmed from Jae's absence. I'm hoping we can be back to ourselves by integrating Jae before the playoffs start, which he's supposed to be back next game.
