Let's enjoy the rest of the season for what it is ... I'm guilty of letting my expectations rise as the season progressed ... Tony has it right!

Not having seen the game and not wanting to read thru the game thread, did any of our guys show up and play well?

Rob and Ryan started guns a blazing. Imoh had a few spectacular defensive plays and a DUNK! Brett made one super move to the basket. What was good was fleeting. It's glue and consistency that is missing and Manhattan is a better team that was able to force turnovers and mental mistakes. Just MHO from the first row of seats behind the bench.

Hate to see the no-show at a road game after you (the fan) make the effort & get there. Thanks for the on-scene analysis!

I'm really out of the loop these days, but what is the feeling on Jimmy letting the guys with a lot of fouls stay out there? Is it to make a learning experience, or were not deep enough for it to matter? I expect this group, probably not this year, to be playing important games, does he not take these guys out early, or is this what we should expect going forward?

In the last press conference Patsos said its the new rules but he wants his guys to stay aggressive. ..at this point he wants them to be more careful when they get their fourth but up to that point he wants them to stay aggressive and make smart plays..and learn how to play under the new rules as best as they can

I thought it was a fleeting no-show and win, lose or draw I will always support all of the kids on this team that are working hard, going to class and supporting each other. This is a pretty good group so it's my pleasure to be on of the familiar faces they look up and see, especially when we hit the speed bumps! Coaching staff deserves a ton of credit also. Good bunch of guys.

I think Jimmy has to re think his philosophy. His past teams fouled too much--- under new rules its out right ridicules. As for kids with 3 or 4 fouls--its well known you foul more when tired. Its normal practice to take a kid out for a few min catch his head after he picks up his 3 or 4th foul and then send him back in- Jimmy doesn't do that and I think most coaches would disagree with that philosophy
