[QUOTE="Connell62, post: 112185, member: 484"] Ouch.. this one hurt. Ruined a great day for me.. Took my daughter to her first GT game and we lost.. WTF.. Seriously, there was a eerie vibe to this game from the start. Even during warm-ups, something just didn't seem right. The arena was dead, our guys had no energy and it carried over to our performance on the court. Not making excuses, as a team and staff, you have to overcome that type of stuff, but I had the feeling that we were going to struggle before tip-off. This game obviously didn't do much for Gregory in terms of quieting his critics or helping his cause, but I really do think that we were ripe for the picking. 5 games in 8 days is a lot, this was a flat-spot for the team with finals on the horizon, and we fit the bill for sure. We were so flat.... Kudos to USC Upstate for playing well and taking it too us. They're a good team and it is sad to say, but they simply outplayed us and wanted it more. They made all of the hustle plays down the stretch. dtm was right, the staff must do a better job of getting these guys ready to play in these situations. With that said, I don't think that you can put our performance entirely on the staff. We have veteran guys, and they need to lead the way as well and motivate themselves and the team to fight through these types of games. We hadn't played great leading to this one, but I felt like there were several unforced turnovers and a general lack of focus from almost everyone on the team. Oh well, flush this one and move on to the next one. This season will play out the way it will play out. All of the hysterics from those coming out and blasting away only makes the situation worse. Let the season play out and IF we prove to be as poor as many here say we are, then Bobinski will do what he needs to do. Trust me, I understand that there shouldn't be any rainbows or sunshine right now, we lost a game that we shouldn't have, but this type of thing happens in today's landscape.
