I disagree. Most times, moral victories really suck. Not tonight. Tonight's performance shows this team they can play with the best in this conference. This game can be a building block.
Sorry, still a bummer. We played a nice game...but I can certainly see areas where (with just slight improvement) we could made a major difference. That is frustrating, and I know that will frustrate the team and coaching staff. When you are not as talented, it is the little things that make a major difference. All it takes is one player not boxing out, or a missed free throw or a bad pass here or there. Yes, we looked much better than expected, but again, that simply creates frustration for me...what could have been.
The players and the coaches see the same thing. That's why they will work harder and use this game as a building block.
