If we all didnt bleed blue and gold, we wouldnt be here complaining ;)
I will try to look at the positives:
1. Still ahead of my early season win prediction by 1 game.
2. The team should be a bit more coachable in practice going into the next couple of games.
Too many people jumped on the bandwagon after the OSC, too many people jumping off now...young teams like this will lose games they really should never lose (like today) and win some they should never win...the season is still really young everyone. It'll be a rollercoaster, let's just try to hang on.
If we lose to UWM playing the same seven guys there will be some slit wrists around here.

Agreed. And if we lose to UWM and E Will and Mbao both play significant minutes there will be some slit wrists around here.

At least we'll bleed to death covered in blue and gold blood.
I think it's absurd to play 7 guys in the shot clock age. We were down 14 w/6:00 or so left. I doubt our collapse would have been worse had we played another one or 2 guys. We need to develop one more guy for the rotation or this team will be spent by Feb. 1.

We weren't UP 14 with 6 minutes left. We were DOWN 14. We didn't collapse late in the game. We fell apart at the BEGINNING of the second half. This one had NOTHING to do with fatigue unless we were totally gassed after one half of basketball following a week off. Obviously you didn't bother to watch the game but thanks for the expert analysis.
Did I post anything about our loss being a fatigue issue? No! You just stupidly jumped to that conclusion. My point was we need to develop another option or two b/c the guys on the court weren't getting it done.

Apologies for misreading your post - I thought you posted that we were up 14 with 6 minutes left. My bad.
No problem. And sorry for using "stupidly." This game just really blew.

Amen to that.
