What I am reading more is that this roster is horribly constructed and full of just bad players. But how can that be even the main problem? The team won 17 games last season WITHOUT CADE CUNNINGHAM (played 12 games before injury). How can that roster be WORSE with Cunningham playing every game and under the 2021/22 NBA Coach of the Year?
