Thought we had something going this year even though we have a terrible offense. But I was punked again.

beat on their home court. They've won something like 13 in a row at home.
If you thought it would be an easy win you punked yourself.

with McDaniels out all but about 5 minutes in the 1st half. Definately could not have played worse but we were selected 15th in preseason so been a better than expected season so far.

Where in my post did I say "we are a good team?"
Jan 21, 2014, 9:58 PM

That's right, I didn't.
We are an average team and we are young.
Pitt is a very good team playing on their home court where they rarely lose.
In basketball teams have an off night, we had one tonight.

We are a pretty good team. Not better that Pitt and a few more teams in the acc, but that don't make us a bad team.

If you think we are going to win many more by scoring less than 50 points you are crazy. We have no offense under Brownell.

Losing by 33 is plenty to be embarrassed about.

Oh I agree, we played terrible, but plenty to be embarrassed about. Just not confident in our offense under Brownell. No shooters and the whole offense is around the perimeter. Let Nnoko get some touches inside. Put KJ on the block. He can elevate over anyone guarding him.

And you think this why? Because I say 33 is plenty to be embarrassed about? I played every sport at our school in high school and then went to Clemson. What is the rationale for saying I have never played the game?

Clearly you have never played if you don't get fired up about a 33 point loss and think that isn't embarrassing.

Nothing, I'm not embarrassed b/c a grown team beat our younger team. If we lose like that once Brownell grows our team up, then we would have a reason to be embarrassed. This team is very young and already have cause some grown ups problems. They have a chance to grow into a very good team....

tonight. Never thought it would be 33 though. We let them shoot 56% from the floor.
I just wonder what the score will be when we play at Cuse. 50-25?

But the football win against them will still be sooooo satisfying. So much trash talk, so little backing it up. (like Crabtree)

It was a reference to all the talk this week about Crabtree and Sherman. Sherman saying Crabtree can't back up trash talk...

You should take all your friends and not watch Clemson Basketball. They only need people that understand the big picture. Really bad game for the Tigers.

myself to get my hopes up about basketball and the name calling starts. It is obvious who the punks are on the board, people that like to call strangers names. Rock on guys if it makes you feel better about yourself. It will not change my opinion.

How high were your hopes?

I didn't expect too much from this team from the start. I'm a little excited after the recent wins but still not to the point of feeling "punked" by this team even after this loss. Pitt is a great team, at home before a great crowd, on fire and we were not. Don't see any reason to feel "punked".

Agreed, they could have beat 'Cuse on the road a few games ago and dominate at home. They are a good team. We have had some good wins, but we are still an average team.

Jan 21, 2014, 10:35 PM

consistently well as they have the past few games, especially on the road, don't blame Clemson blame yourself.
You can't expect a young, inexperienced team like we have to go out there in a hostile environment and perform like a well oiled machine against a good team. That's just the way things are and why experience is such a big key. The veteran teams can overcome rowdy crowds and early mistakes. They don't let those things bother them. Youthful teams do. And when the other team is actually playing good, then things can snowball fast. Tonight that happened.
We have a good team. They can compete with pretty much everyone in our league. Realistically though they are still learning how to become great. It shouldn't be surprising to see a couple more games like this coming up. Maybe not this bad, but being a little more mistake prone on the road and maybe letting a game or two get away from them with those mental gaffes.
The good news is we have a lot of games at home down the stretch and that's a place this team thrives in. Still a long way to go and we have a team that can compete. I think we will. Be interesting to see how we manage against the next 4 roadies coming up. After this performance though I would expect a bounceback game, even if it is another on the road. Who we got next again ?

I'm still excited about this team. Pitt is a really good team who had a great night. We are an average but improving team who had an awful night. It happens. Get over it and get ready for the next one.
