It was so refreshing to watch a good basketball team overcome their poor play and win. The Cavs had every reason to fold up shop after playing a 10pm game in NO the night before yet instead they found the intestinal fortitude to lock down on defense late and grit out a win. Obviously it's NBA. The talent levels are off the charts different, but it's nice to root for a team capable of overcoming adversity compared to this BG squad that just says "f**k it" whenever they get get down.

I do still think there may be enough talent on this BG team to pull out enough wins against the bottom barrel to find themselves in Cleveland. Not sure it matters because they'll be the lower seed and have proven they can't stay within 2-3 TDs of the top teams on this league.

You already know how this will turn out. WE almost never beat a team twice in a season. WE are always worse off the 2nd time through the league.

Based on that history, I'd bet we go 1-3 against those 4 teams.

Us going to Cleveland will depend on if the team wants it enough. Central and Ohio have improved but we should have enough talent to beat central and Eastern to clinch a spot. Question is does this team fold after the tough stretch or show some fight? 8th is the ceiling now and that's not good enough

Agee only played seven minutes. The coach hinders this team to the point that even if they wanted it, they aren’t being put in a position for success.
