I for one am not crushed by this loss. On the road; revenge game for Hofstra; Hofstra coming off W vs C of C; no way Estrada & Thomas were going to repeat their poor shooting performance at SECU. With that being said, we squandered a good opportunity to position ourselves for a run at first place. As pointed out above, if CT or Holden had a better scoring game, we likely win. With NT’s career game, we didn’t need both CT and Holden to go off, but when only 1 of 3 of your top scorers produces, this is what happens. I don’t expect NT to drop 30 every night, but if he can get to at or around 20, in conjunction with productive games from CT and Holden, then we would have a legit chance to beat any team in the conference on any given night. Of course, getting all 3 of them to be productive in the same game is easier said than done, which is why I have a healthy dose of skepticism this team can run the table in the tournament. And, in a worst case scenario we drop out of the top 4 in the regular season standings, I see no chance we’re winning 4 games in 4 days.
