I started a separate thread so that the negative title of a different thread doesn't discourage people inordinately who glance in at titles and don't have a membership.
I'm not going to watch the NCAA tournament, but I *am* going to watch the NIT games we play and be very happy to see how far we could go.
It's possible it will be hard to have the energy to win several games in a row despite fatigue, but with some support from the fans in the gym, every little bit can help get the energy to win.
We all know the downside of not going to the NCAA tournament. I wonder if someone can articulate the upside of doing well in the NIT. Obviously we can always articulate the downside of anything.
For players who experienced a slump at the end of the season, perhaps they could use the tournaments to pull out of their slump and redeem themselves.
I don't want to put pressure on them to do that though because that could make it the slump even worse. I mean it as an opportunity without pressure.
