It would take a miracle now

As I write this we are down 18 pts with a lot of time left, but it would take a miracle for us to even make this one close. Our guys looked tired out of the gate. What excuse is there for that, honestly? Yes, you could say that we played a really tough game last night, but so did SDSU and they don't seem that phased. If I was coach Rose I would have given everybody two ambien right after the game and driven them back to the hotel for a mandatory fourteen hours of uninterrupted sleep. That can fix ANYTHING.

Too many turnovers and missed layups.

To many FOULS not being called, Jimmer has been fouled 15+ times, yet less then 5 called.

There's no doubt that the refs don't give Jimmer the calls he deserves. They give him about as many calls as they give anyone so some people say that they do, but the fact is that Jimmer has the ball in his hands and is involved in many, many more in game collisions that would normally be called a foul than the average guard, for sure. The other teams always whine because of how many calls he gets and it may very well be that he gets a few more than average, but he doesn't get anywhere near the calls he deserves.



Regardless, our guys look tired and flat. Have since the first minute. That can only be cured with a whole lot of sleep the night before, a whole lot of caffeine the night of, or both. Personally I don't like the way caffeine can make you jittery, so I wish Rose had drugged the crap out of those guys last night. I know he probably can't, but just sayin.
