The starting 5 is cooked

[Niastri]

I know I’m piling on and beating a dead horse, but Carlos has sunk to a James Thues level of play.

For those youngins that never saw James play, his best attribute as a point guard was his ability to track down loose rebounds.

JB literally at times, and this is not an exaggeration, would tell him to bring the ball over mid court, pass the ball to anyone else, and then stand as far away from the action as possible. It was comical.

Even at that, he was a better defender than what Carlos is showing at this point.

And James Thues at least got 2.8 steals per game, so he was doing something on defense.

The 23-13 team from 2001-2002 would be a dream season at this point.
Yet we remember it as comically bad.
