Yeah, I see more positives than negatives. The ridiculously good turnover numbers (5 straight games with 10 or fewer turnovers, longest streak to start a season in nba history), good second-half defense, 2nd best in the league at getting to the line, those are all big positives. I think their passing has been really good, but poor shooting (especially on clean looks from 3, by usually good shooters) has lead to some overpassing. Shooting percentages will come around, and assists will go up as a result. Rebounding was fine until Amir went out. The bench has been better the last couple games. The first half defense continues to be the only thing that worries me.
