Is Gordon related to Bill Laimbeer? I can't stand players who act like they can never do wrong. Every call on him and he looks like he's ready to cry. For some reason I can't understand all the hype. He's no better than Cook in my opinion.

Gordon is off tonight for sure...but watch that first step and how he penetrates and creates. He is legit imo.

These games are really hard to watch. The optimist in me says they've played these good teams tough and may just get a couple big wins down the stretch. The realist in me says this team really lacks leadership and just can't score. Hopefully the optimist is right.

What I've always seen with Matta coached teams is that they unapologetically aggressive. I never thought I'd see a Matta team lose the intensity battle, but this team does consistently. I don't know quite what to make of it. I think there is more to it than leadership. I think part of it is Matta's refusal to use his bench more. You can't expect the guys to play with a high level of intensity when 7 guys play 90% or more of the minutes. What the hell happened to that kid who transfered from Vandy? I can't even remember his name he's played so little. Lauderdale? Hill? Wallace? This team needs fresh bodies. These guys look dead on their feet.

Is anyone besides Butler shooting over 70% from free throw line this year?

Diebler is 78% and KK is 73%. None of our guys get there very often, though, because we settle for so many outside shots.
