Bad Loss: Poor Play-Bad Opponent

[Askgreek]

I guess exams took there toll on this team. They played awful. No offensive flow and defensive intensity was cold-hot-cold. Stanford played a poor all around game and has very limited talent. They just got an early Christmas present. Other than Daniels and AB on defense, they rest of the team took the night off. Bad passing and a lot of bad decision making. This team needs to improve if they expect to make a deep run in March.

That is NOT true.

They had a 12 point lead. They went into the half with momentum.

They did NOT lose because of exams.

They lost because they have repeatedly failed to maintain focus and intensity when they build leads. It has happened almost every game.

The coach has not been able to get them past that. He had no answers in that 2nd half. This coach is a couple of possessions away this season from having a ton of explaining to do.

Not a bad opponent. By no means.

They certainly weren't a very good opponent. People tried telling us Indiana was good to when we nearly lost to them. That's sorta been proven not to be true.

Agree. Not very good yes but not bad, if that makes sense.

Kit, Stanford looked pretty bad. We made them look better than they are.
