Looking ahead ... December will be brutal.

No question we have had a tough schedule so far, and we are fortunate to be at 10-6. But check out our December schedule. If we come out of December still above .500, I'll be happy. 14 games in December:

  • 2 against Boston
  • 2 against Denver
  • 2 against Toronto
  • 1 each against Utah, Phoenix, Dallas, and Orlando
  • @NY is no gimmee here since we struggle with potent offensive teams who push the tempo

Looking at our schedule, I see only 3 games in 14 that we ABSOLUTELY should win, against Washington, LAC, and Sacramento. Ouch. Somebody help me feel a little more optimistic about this.

Also, will be home to Portland for Christmas, and we're looking forward to seeing 2 games in person, against the Nuggets and then the Raptors for Edge Night at the Garden. Can't wait!!!
