Well...thats kind of the deal when you have a team of this make-up.
It reminds me of the Hartley team. In order to win they've got to play balls-to-the-wall 110% every night...eventually that grinds you down.
Elite teams have a number of players that can coast at 70-80% most nights and still win and then ramp it up to 100%+ when it counts in the playoffs.
These guys have to give it all every night and eventually theres just nothing left in the tank.
