Good Lord, have not seen this team play this year? They've pulled game after game out of the crapper right at the end.

Hell, who here didn't think we might down 6 with 2 and a half minutes to go?

We were up 10 in the 2nd half and then down by 11 with 6:30 to play...that's a 21 point swing buddy...I don't think we lead anytime in the last 10 minutes of the game...you think that's a recipe for winning? WAKE UP

And the "pulled game after game out of the crapper at the end" is a bit misleading. That insinuates that we were down and fighting our way back to make a comeback. However, In most of these games, we've had big to decent size leads, given them up, and then had to save the game dramatically at the end or barely hold on to win, instead of just winning it like we should have. That happens to all teams at some point. However, with this team, it's beyond a trend. It continues to happen.
