Ok we aren't great in close games but I think I saw yesterday it was a typo and we are actually 1-3.

I could be wrong, but it seems like we have had more than 4 close games over the last 3 years

0-4 this year. I went back and looked over the three prior and I got 2-13 for those. That would make 2-17 over the last almost 4 seasons. No matter how you slice it - not good. I think I remember close ones falling our way last year buty I think we'd hit a few late fts to make the gap a little larger than three so those arent in it.

so two things could be equally true: either we just aren't playing up to our potential, and losing a lot of close games as proof, or, we are playing way beyond our potential, and falling short because other teams that should be blowing us out are managing to get the critical break that really good teams tend to get.

Why would someone publish and post something that is so obviously wrong? A hater of BB and Clemson?

CBB never met a close game he couldn’t lose. Almost like his mantra is Lose em close and they will extend my contract.

Then fall straight on my face with basically the same team the next year. You argue for the good seasons and I'll argue for the bad ones and let's see who wins. I'm going to imagine your argument is going to be very quick. Who cares he had an outstanding year, what did it accomplish? I'll tell you, it accomplished nothing. When you have success a good coach builds off of it and that hasn't been done here regardless of what you think. First it was he doesn't have the facilities to compete, then it was well we have to give him time after the facilities are built for it to pay off and now the excuse is he well he went to the Sweet 16. Going to the Sweet 16 is a darn good argument don't get me wrong but when you return 4 of the 5 starters who happen to be seniors and this is the end result of that product I don't see how you can complain about people complaining. If Brownell was having success then people would be behind Brownell. It's not about the coach it's about the state of Clemson basketball and what is best for the program and I don't know how anyone can look at what is happening and say Brownell is what is best. Here he is will be going into his 9th or 10th year next year and we're talking about it may be his worst team to date. if that is acceptable to you then the fans bashing Brownell may not be the problem, the problem may be the one looking back at you in the mirror.

Taking Devoe and Grantham away is not the same basic team. I think we've under performed this year too but to date I think we've dropped 4 games by three or less. If we could have even split those we would be in much better shape. Now dont get me wrong I'm not excusing where we are but its not like we are like Pitt and get blown out every night.

Our boys don't know how to finish and that is on the coach. Last year was great but look at every other year he has coached and look at this year. We are good enough to play with teams but we can't beat them.

Interesting. The Tigers have had more close games than anyone else. Getting close. One super star and BB is coach of the year!
I assume we are not getting beat by bigger margins than others

I believe 4 of 9 ACC losses are by 1 possession.
I also believe 6 of 7 ACC wins are by doubles digits. The other win was 8 points I believe.
Regardless of competition or any other factors, those are pretty crazy stats.
There are no "what ifs" on our wins.
If we went .500 in conference for 1 possession games we would be off the bubble and in the NCAAT.
It doesn't matter which 2 games you choose to flip either.
What could have been.....
