Coming into this game LSU was losing games on the road by an average of 14 points per game. We beat them by seven. In their road games they score an average of 73 per game. They scored 85 against us.

Make of it what you will.

Yikes,
When the sunshine pumpers pull their heads out of the sand and read what you posted they are going to be really happy that we won still.

To be sure the end of the game had me muttering some not so nice things. But it was really the last 6-8 minutes that stunk. We were up 75-50 with 8 to go.

We put on the cruise control about five minutes too early. Got really sloppy at the end. And we didn't guard the whole second half.

I'm not angry. I'm just a tad disappointed we didn't show greater improvement.

Also, Malik Monk now has played 78 minutes without a rebound.

ZERO rebounds in last 78 minutes played. Skal would be impressed!

i'm sure Skal had him beat. well, i'm not about 78 minutes, but Skal went three games without a rebound...

Worst defensive team since Cal got here. It just is what it is. There is nothing we can do about it as fans.

This is not a good "team" right now. Cal needs to twerk, tweek, and twiddle if this group is gonna make any noise other than a whimper come March. Not feeling any optimism at all right now.
Pessimistic hopefulness is the most I can muster up.

Seriously? Heck, you would think the ball would bounce off of his head at least once...I'm assuming he would grab a ball that hit him on the head...maybe I'm wrong.

Everybody thinks I'm crazy when I say we should go full Syracuse and play almost exclusively zone....but I really think at this point in the season we have shown that we are crappy at man to man and it isn't going to get any better. Playing mostly zone is our best chance at playing good defense. Realistically it's not going to happen under Cal but I think it's what's best for this team.

This team is not here to win. They are here to go to the NBA.

That's CRAZY...You're CRAZY...I'm kidding, I have no idea if that would work or not...who knows.

Yikes,

I'm curious, just how the hell do you think bashing and trashing the team is going to help matters?

At this point a win is a win. If the CLOD pull their heads out of the sand, the W is better than the L we took in FL. The team is what it is. Crying like little girls because the team has problems is just foolish. Cal and the team's job is to make the best of this they can. The CLOD's job is to watch and apparently cry about some thing they have no hope of changing.

Oh, so your opinion is different than mine. I'm sure you'll try harder next time.
LOL, What am I thinking? That's not possible for you. You will just always be a low grade schmuck. Congrats.

Are you talking about Cal? He's saying the same thing....

So you can't think and don't know the difference between a coach and a fan. Now that is funny.

It doesn't help or hurt any more than others praising and celebrating. Nothing fans do will help or hurt the team. It does however let certain fans get the anger out so they do not go home and kick the dog.

Leon, I agree. Where I get off the train is when they starting trying to read the players minds and belittling them over what they perceive is a lack of dedication. When they post that sort of thing on a public forum, they are inviting public response. I respond.

I surely don't recommend kicking the dog. I like dogs. Maybe they should try a sharp stick in the eye. That would be preferable to verbally lashing a teenager based on nothing.

Ah, more straw man bs from you.

You know, I appear to be the better fisherman here, I'm leaving bait all over this board and you bite every damn time.

He's the coach. Not the same thing.
God forbid we should have the gall to see and discuss the same things on here. It's not like this is a message board or some kind of an opinions forum.
I guess in your world the only individuals qualified to say anything about this teams slide is the coach. Got it.

It was our only hope with our 2013 personnel. If he didn't do it then, he isn't doing it now.

Any chance you are the KYBassman that used to be on another forum with an old dodger named MrWildcat or something like that. He was old and always argued with everyone.
