Given that the team is performing at a much higher level than any of us expected, we have to assume Donnie knew what he was doing.
If the goal is winning and making the playoffs then what is there to complain about? Especially since we are looking like a top tier playoff team, just below the elite teams.
What more do we want for a team that wasn't realistically expected to compete for a championship this year? The only team I don't think we could beat in a playoff series this year is the Clippers, but that could change as the team improves or if we make a big trade.
