• This week: 3 at Seattle (67-58), 3 vs. Indianapolis (55-69)


Since a hot start, we have been playing steady .600 ball. I am resting my starters frequently; there is a sub in the lineup almost every day. So, if it seems like we are coasting, it’s because we are coasting. I want a healthy, rested team for the playoffs.

By the way, while we are “coasting”, we lead the entire CBA in runs scored and fewest runs allowed. We have the exact same record (80-44) on this date as we did last year on this same day. We had a 10-game lead this time last year.
