The last 3 games have not been inspired basketball. What would it take for you to call it a fade?
For me we need to go 5-1 or 6-0. Take care of the cellar and win vs. X or @CU (I'm pretty agnostic between the two - X probably gives us more shot at BE title, but I'd like to see us beat a quality opponent on the road).
4-2 means we'll go into tourney season without having won a meaningful game since Jan. 19th.
3-3 would be a disaster - it would mean a Q2 loss or worse (vs SJU Q3, vs DP Q3, @G Q3, @But Q2).
I have every confidence Shaka will get us to 5-1 or better which should be good for a 3 seed. But set your goalposts now. Until we actively stomp out the feb fade narrative it will persist. We'll know much more by a week from Wednesday.
