Talent

[The Funster]

Look how discombobulated they are at the end of close games. Why? They knew they had Kemba last year, and now they don't know who will bail them out.

Same scenario, UConn down 3 with the ball and 20 seconds left, you know Kemba would have made something happen. He certainly wouldn't have squared for a 26 foot 3 pointer.

With Calhoun and Kemba, the game never gets to that point. At 51-37, PC went on a 26-5 run. One could argue that with those two at the game that run never would have gotten that deep. Calhoun is their coach and Kemba was their security blanket. Their is no go to guy on the team and it makes it harder for everyone.

Maybe it's time to accept that this team isn't as talented as the top 20 or so. I want to be wrong, but Lamb is hit or miss, Drummond has a long way to go in the paint, Shabazz and Boatright are good players and all, but obviously not good enough.

Great teams don't lose to teams like Providence. Or Rutgers. I think this team is one year away. Just have to hope we're eligible for the NCAAs next year.

Amen.
