I agree. Although we're Eons ahead of where we were last year.
On Sunday, we won because of our offense, NOT because of our defense. We played "good defense" in the respect that we limited Nash to a one-dimensional player (a very good one at that), but Phoenix shot over 50% from the floor and scored 109 points. It wouldn't be safe to rely on scoring 119 points and shooting 55% to win these next couple of games. We have to continue to make adjustments and crack down on defense if we want any chance of keeping ourselves alive.
