We’ve trailed once at half, and it was by 2 or 3. Every game with the exception of two so far follows the same script: get out to a nice lead at the half, then completely forget how to play basketball in the 2nd. Just a matter of whether or not they fully complete the collapse or hang on.

Spacing is just non-existent, especially with Gary having been out. Teams pack the paint on Paolo and Franz and allow anyone to shoot.

All that said, it’s honestly a pretty ideal start to the season — the team’s issues are glaring and will necessitate a fix sometime in the not-too-distant future, and yet they’re above .500.
