pointless to compare records right now because of the schedule. Anyone watching the games can clearly see without a doubt this team is much better than last years teams. They are in the games in the end and keep coming up short. The stars are struggling right now to find their niche in the system, the bench players are doing well because they come off the bench and their pretty much beat opponents on hustle and will most nights. The starters are looking sluggish because you can see they are all still sifting their way through the system. Once they find their place, they will play much better and the team will win those close games. Curry needs a quality big man as a teacher. He gets that, he will get to the next level.

This record stuff is BS. We have the talent to beat everyone we played, except expecting a loss to SA.

First 12 games last year were

Boston
Washington-.512 W%
G.S.- .415
Portland-.256
G.S.- .415
Sacramento- .537
Utah- .500
Lakers- .549
Denver- .537
Portland-.256
Charlotte- .317
Philly- .463

=.396 W% average.

This year:
Memphis- .200 W%(as of today)
Atlanta- .500
Indiana- .500
SA - .818
Denver- .500
Houston - .636
SA -.818
Cleveland- .700
Washington- .444
Miami- .444
Boston- .400
Houston- .636
WP%= .550
Without SA=.500

Then based on W% so far, last season was a little harder, but we were in position to win each and every game we have played this season--including both SA games-that was not the case last season.

If you want to say that this team is better fine. Say that, noone will disagree with you. These players are supposed to like playing for this coach. Them being better is not up for debate. Just because really bad is better than extemely crappy, doesn't make really bad good.

Are you trying to say that our schedule hasnt been extremely difficult this year?

I'm saying we may have had a more difficult schedule(this early in the season it's hard to balance the records-I mean some teams could have been 8-4 when they faced us last season and then plummeted, but I digress). We have a better team from the start and a coach that every player wanted, and a system that supposedly better suits the players. I'm sayng in the end, it evens out.

what bugs me is that last years problems are this years problems. We are a better team because Nate, Lee and QRich are carrying us bigtime.
