Take a look at the 2011 team

Lot of people are bitching and thinking our team is in trouble.

The 2011 team got whacked by Louisville 71-58 (at Louisville) and proceeded to lose three of the last four regular season games. We all know how that ended up.

Have faith!

Yes, and as is similar here, that Louisville team played basketball like it was rugby. Simply a foul machine that challenged the refs to foul the whole team out before the game was over. That game reminded me of the imfamous Indiana game against Cleveland State. IU was fouled multiple times every trip down the court but the refs were reluctant to leave Cleveland State with no players. Indiana lost.

The team went 23-0 for tourneys and OOC. Against the toughest competition in the country.

But inside the BEs, the refs allowed teams to slam and hammer Kemba constantly. His shooting % dropped. His points per game went down. The team suffered.

It's not hard to change a game when on 10 trips down the floor, you swallow your whistle. That's 10 points right there.

Same thing we are seeing now.
