The last couple of weeks have brought an amazing stew of circumstances that make everything feel worse than it is.
Let’s start by acknowledging the obvious: a four-game losing streak not only hurts, but wasn’t expected from a team that came in as the preseason number one and returned a lot of their talent. It’s also been a while since we’ve felt this way as a fanbase: 2016-17 was the last season that returned this much talent and it was basically championship or bust. We didn’t quite know what to expect in 2017-18 with the hangover and we got a second round exit.
