yeah but that’s the thing about this team- the metrics say we are a top 25 team, but the product in the court does not back up that idea. this team is so mercurial that in any given night we’re gonna be somewhere between the no.15 and no.50 team in the country, and we never quite know where on that spectrum we’ll land. when we’ve got abmas, disu, and one of weaver or hunter all on their game we’re a top 15 team. when those guys aren’t all going we trend closer to top 50.
that’s why ultimately this regular season has to go down as a slight disappointment. we were all very excited about our offense, and particularly our shooting heading into the year, and for the most part that’s all been there. the effort has been there too. but our poor defense and sometimes brain dead performances have led us to a .500 finish in conference with some mediocre-bad metrics that really should be better.
oh well. that part of the season is over, and i’m not sure that any cbb fans these days even give a shit about the first five months of the season soong as their team is in the tourney. we’re there man. and this year, i kinda don’t want to make a run in the league tourney, i just want to go into the big dance healthy. we’re finally here. let’s see what happens.
