Hearing that old theme song from 1994 makes me remember how bad they currently are compared to the good ol days.

Melo getting his Legs and you can see he has the Triangle down and how to operate within it.

Robin been consistent on D all season, but on the offensive end he's been balling

Lance has to get most improved player, between his Versatility on D and the improvement on offense, I can't give him enough props.

I love the consistency of Kristap and how level headed he is. You never see him get too high or low. I honestly feel like him and Karl Towns are going to be better the Anthony Davis.

Derrick Williams inprovement on D is one off the biggest changes on the team that's going under the radar. He was horrible with the switching and rotations, you can tell the coaches really sat down with him in the film room and he took heed to it.

The Team as a whole is gelling on Offense. Outside of some stretches I've always liked how hard they played on defense.

I've been critical of D.Fish, I think we all have going back to last season, but you have to give him and the staff props. Between the rotation finally having consistency and the in-game adjustments I've seen him make, he's getting there!

We looking good! Although I like Calderon because he doesn't turn the ball over, A penetrating guard who can guard the position would be nice...langston is more of a combo guard and Jerian I'm still 50/50 on.

Do you think they'll make the playoffs?

At the beginning of the season I predicted we would, so I'm sticking with that. I definitely didn't anticipate the East being as good as it is. I like how we're playing, we've been so bad the last 3 yrs it makes you hesistant to be optimistic sometimes.

Fair enough.

When the playoff discussion starts, consider that we're 1.5 out of the 8th seed and our Strength of Schedule has been the 10th toughest so far...add to that we have a nice long run of mostly home games with easier opposition mixing into the tough games...I think it's a lot easier to have confidence in our chances at an 8th seed or possibly even higher. We need health though, the slim rotation means every play matters that much more.
