    7-2 without Lebron, sometimes without Luka, sometimes without Reaves, one time without all three is pretty outstanding really!

    I never believed the “greatly” lacking / unbalanced roster accusations. Not a serious contender. It’s not optimal yet but it’s got redundancy in our most important areas and it has Luka, LeBron and AR for the apex Big 3 in the game, a healthy Vando and the additions of Ayton, LaRavia and Smart, plus a souped up Jaxson Hayes and great shooting big, strong Rui Hachimura still improving. With much anticipated Adou Thiero nearly ready in the wings to get our first looks at. Healthy and career contract year Gabe (pre ankle roll) and Knecht with still hoped for breakout potential. And all the assets, picks, swaps, etc to make the further needed improvements in the needed areas.

    So far so good and we are still not fully intact. There will be a period of adversity like everyone else but we have the chemistry to withstand it is what it looks like.
