-seasons are more exciting when you are in the thick of the playoff race and every night you move up or down a position and this team has been playing catch up since the first month, hanging around but not taking a firm grasp on a spot
I don't understand your last bullet. Isn't that exactly what this team has been doing for the better part of a month? Or do you mean you enjoy it most when the playoffs aren't in question, but positioning up and down are?
