I guess we all have different perspectives...

This is one of the more frustrating teams I can ever remember here.

Wins never frustrate me...now, on to decent Houston team on the road. (In font of tens of fans at the Hoff)

Not complaining more so I wonder why isn't the defense turned up for the last few games of the season. I can understand if their coasting during the first part of the season but they been living dangerously the last few

My post wasn't so much a complaint as it was a disturbing trend by this team that's been going on pretty much this entire season. Some big games coming up to end the year and into the AAC and NCAA tourneys. If things aren't corrected quickly, it's gonna be a sad ending to the season for Tiger fans everywhere. Senior laden, experienced team shouldn't be experiencing these same problems over and over again, especially this time of year. If you see it as complaining, sorry, I see it as a disturbing trend.

Well mines is a complaint.We should be getting better and not sleep walking on defense.Shouldnt we be drilling these lesser teams and not playing at their level.It just seems that we lack focus.What I'm hoping is that it's just some of these seniors.Another thing is that I'm tired of teams getting unhindered backdoor cuts.We are looking at a recipe for disaster.Im here for the ride,but it's looking ugly.

While the team is not perfect- this idea thay are not playing defense...hmmm...

Rutgers scored 59 points.

And even last night- which was 74-74 in regulation- was faster paced...

And Temple shot only 40% from the field...35% from three.

But yes they shot 6-12 from three in the second half so that half of play indeed indicates a disturbing trend.

maybe they slept on Temple

the big ole gorilla in the room is they already played us once this year and they've improved. last I heard they are in a pretty good conference too.

I think they're gonna surprise at the tourney

I am mainly talking about CC and Geron Johnson.

Geron? I am just through the first half but Geron is playing harder than anybody else on the team. Did something happen in the second half with him?

Have to disagree here. Michael Dixon is playing harder than anyone. He comes in and saves the team in the last two games. If not for his clutch free throws we go to a second overtime against Temple and who knows what happens. You see him coming in and Geron going out in the last 3 minutes of every close game. He's the only shooter on the team I have confidence in unless he comes down and takes a rushed shot which he only does on occasion. Geron plays hard but reckless. Michael doesn't throw nearly as many bad passes. It's just my opinion but I respect yours. They are both great players.

As if that's not already happening.

I see some pretty nice cleaning up going on.

And no- these were not just Memphis fans offering counter opinions.
