The team's ability to convert opportunities into points has been remarkable, as evidenced by their high two-point conversion rate of 66 percent against both the Wizards and Lakers. Despite a tough loss against Sacramento Kings where they scored 107 points, they maintained a high free throw percentage at 95 percent and continued to show strength in points in paint.


Defensively, there's room for improvement after allowing over 110 points in each of their past three games. However, they've demonstrated resilience by maintaining positive assist-to-turnover ratios and securing significant bench contributions.
