Re: sick of losing to the WORST teams...
Regarding comments from those who mainly post only when we
lose, see below. No post after a decent win, but a loss on the road on the
back half of two straight, with the second on the road isn't mentioned.
The return of Kukoc isn't mentioned and he is obviously a difficult
matchup.
We beat a very good team last night, lose to a team who have
now won 3 straight and are definitely improving, who have added a decent shooter
in Maloney, and Pitino should be fired? I love hearing people say stuff
like if the players are consistent, it's the fault of the coach. That is
such a load of crap. The players miss foul shots and the coach should be
held accountable. What about the player? Does he bear any
responsibility? If it's all the fault of the coach, why has Toine taken so
much heat from this list. When Toine sucks, it is up to him to get out of
it, not the coach. It is up to the coach to point out the weaknesses to
the player and give him/her points of emphasis to improve or correct the
skill. But a coach cannot will a player into not making bad passes or
turnovers, as they are part of the game and always will be.
Those who are looking for consistency, at this point, will be
greatly disappointed. It takes time. Apparently more than some of
you are willing to wait.

What the heck is goin on???!!!
We beat a good team and then we lose to a very
bad or worst team in the league!
this is embarrasing because it already happened
twice against the same Chicago team and Pitino and the charges didn't learn
anything from the first loss. Are the players intentionally making
Pitino look bad? Maybe. Or is Pitino just not up to the
task? Most probably. If we're so inconsistent, then it's the
coaches task to motivate and condition every players minds in every
game.
I'm sure Pitino has excuses of, "Oh, we didn't
pass the ball around..."
"Oh, our players need consistency and
maturity...", " Oh, we are blah blah blah..."
I can only say he talks a lot of
bull.
I was hoping that my prediction of 32 wins and no
entry to the playoffs would be wrong but it's already kinda goin towards that
and it sickens me.
Patience is a virtue...but the teams' showing is
simply sickening!!! WE DEFINITELY NEED TO CHANGE THE
COACH!!!
