Their roster is filled with elder statesmen who are well past their prime, with veterans who are career journeymen, and young players who to date have shown little or no discernible improvement. The team is equally terrible on offense and defense, and many nights they resemble more of a high school team than an NBA squad.
Given this predicament, the only important goals for the remaining 50 plus games this year are to evaluate the young talent on the roster and hope that with more experience they improve and gain a measure of consistency. One can only pray that by season’s end, there is some sign that the dark cloud is lifting and that the team is at least headed in the right direction, something that is not apparent at the moment.
