Where do we rank after watching the first two rounds of the playoffs

Taking a step back from our own performance and watching the playoffs unfold have been both encouraging and disheartening in certain ways.

I see a team like Minnesota do in some ways worse than us vs the Spurs and I think we realistically we would have a good shot against any team 3-15 in the West. Especially as we have a number of young people that should improve, Dame back, and even if we don't get anyone in the offseason.

The flip side is I have no idea how we challenge SA or OKC not just next year but for the next five years barring injury. These teams just look so dominant I don't see how they get challenges in a seven game series. A championship seems very far away even as we improve.

I should add most Iranians aren't able to access the internet for 2.5 months now so this is all they get to watch

Paulie's book was correct

I don't know why all these old school guys wanted credit for going to prison. Just a sign you were bad at your job and got caught.

You should get credit for not getting locked up.

Maybe this is just sour grapes but I watched the game and I don't think so much the Wolves were lights out on defense and more like the Spurs were missing a ton of open shots whereas they were lights out against us.
