Actually, there's a lot more to "worse" than mere statistics. We are - knock on wood - not facing open hostility in the locker room, players who have just tuned out and don't even bother to phone it in, etc.
I don't ever challenge "worse"...
Agreed. We could have a Tinsley or Marbury-type sitting at home because of behavior, a T-Mac-type always injured and indirectly causing locker room problems, etc., etc. Don't challenge worse.
