I absolutely hate it that this team is so prone to falling into deep holes. At least once a game, we’ll turn off our brains and let a team go on a massive run.
But I absolutely love how this team is more than capable of coming back in spectacular fashion, no matter who we play against, and how many points we’re down.
Of course, this is not the blueprint for success, and I would love it if we’d stop going into lulls. But you can never count us out.

We also build big leads and lose them, so it goes both ways. Other than with elite teams it's the nature of the league.

We also build big leads and lose them, so it goes both ways. Other than with elite teams it's the nature of the league. To be at the next level, we have to stop the bleeding sooner. Almost every team can erase a 10 pt deficit in a matter of possessions. But we should be able to clamp down defensively and not let a 17 pt lead evaporate in less than hald a quarter. When teams make runs, we need to withstand the surge and hold the line, and not let lose the lead. It’smduring these runs that our defemse has to ratchet up, and we up the ante on the other end. What is happening is our offense lapses at the same time our defense falls asleep.
