Re: NOT THE PLAYERS

["Cecil Wright" <cecil@hfx.eastlink.ca>]

The team bricks 13 freebies, we lose on a great shot by a great young
player, whose team just beat us for the first time in 3 attempts, and the
coach is blamed.  Hard to figure.

This team played very hard and made some fine plays.  I fully understand why
Rick went off in addressing the media.  Regardless of all the comments about
players tuning the coach out, there is no evidence of this from what little
I can see.  I see the same thing I've seen for most of the season; a young
team that is trying to work hard and improve.  That's it.  There will be no
instant gratification for those who are looking for it.

Yes Pitino said they would make the playoffs in 3 years.  What would you
want him to say?  I don't know when or if we will ever make the playoffs.
Hey the guy stuck his neck out.  Did you all give up on Heinsohn and KC when
things didn't go well as coach?
