[NU Sports] Can someone please...

[Louis Martinaitis]

Sorry for the tardiness of this post to the thread.  But I couldn't cope or write last night.

That said, what troubles me more than the loss, is the fact that we were so visibly out coached, Again, at crunch time.  Leading with a minute to go, unable to call a scheme to get the ball in bounded, everyone 28 ft from the bucket inside of 10 on the shot clock, playing not to lose ( no trey attempts) in last 5 minutes...one can go on and on.

And feel so sorry for the team.  They have always played their guts out.  They never quit and my heart goes out to them.  

But they have been consistently let down at crunch time.  No excellence or leadership from the bench.  They deserved to make the Dance. They were just let down by their leader.
