It's been coming, we're in a bad place right now

Great comeback, but we're really starting to struggle without Kyrie and Caris. 3 quarters we got embarrassed by an awful Hawks team, before that the same kind of performance against a bad Spurs team.

Spencer is incredible, but we can't do this for much longer. Good teams are going to punish us. Hopefully we all get a nice Christmas present with Kyrie and Caris cleared for contact over the next 7-10 days

This about sums up the current situation. When any team is desperate for guys like Prince and Temple to play well, you're in a bad spot. They aren't great players, and are wildly inconsistent. Wilson Chandler gets his dumb ass suspended, and is clearly nowhere near game shape but we have no choice but to play him. This team barely has 5 guys it can trust right now.

We've gotten by with smoke and mirrors for weeks now, a combination of an easier schedule and getting those games where a combo of Temple/Prince/Harris/Allen matched what Spencer is doing. Its only a matter of time before Spencer is getting doubled off every screen, and teams start daring these other guys to beat them. And it won't be pretty if they do.

This team needs Kyrie Irving desperately, it needs Caris LeVert, hell it needs David Nwaba.
