That will change if we beat Cincy. Can't wait to see the rematch @Wichita St. on the 13th.

Yeah. It’s the puzzling losses early on the road and at home. We looked like 5 guys at the gym who just met each other in the first couple of games. That’s tough to overlook at this point.

I don’t think it’s necessarily that we looked out of practice. It’s that we looked so much more out of practice than the teams we were playing. You shouldn’t need weeks of practice to remember how to box out

Yes....Over the first four games we were showing progress but we didn't know which
team was going to show up....Only in the last three games or so has the identity of
the team become more apparent.....The rotation has been tightened down to fit the
game phase and situation, and we can see what the team really is.....It's strengths
and it's shortfalls....

Nevada Natural has expressed in another thread his concern that there has been too
much emphasis on pointing out the shortfalls of the team instead of simply enjoying
the strengths....He's right in the respect that we are getting to watch one of our all
time greats, and some other really good performers.....The scary part, is that Idowu
and Rachal could have had really good games instead of great ones, and we would not
have won....Their performances, assuming the rest of the team was functioning
normally with minimum errors, should have resulted in a double digit win....The old
bromide about a chain only being as strong as its weakest link, etal. does seem to
apply to some degree.....

The good news is we are improving every game, and this team is really fun to watch...
If we continue to play well, the world of BB will have to take notice....
