    I saw them early in the season in Atlanta and thought they looked really solid. The wheels fell of when Nerlens went down, and then they really fell off when the pressure started to mount.

    With a full team that bunch was better than this one, though it's probably close. They would've definitely gotten into the NCAA Tournament. Not sure they would've won a game but they would've gotten there.
    That team would have made the NCAA's with a healthy Noel. They only needed another win or two to get in, IMO. I'm sure he would provided a difference in a few games. Also thought that team was just starting to come together when he got hurt. After his injury that team just quit.

      I don't think it's fair to say that about Noel. He had a pretty significant impact on a lot of games that year, some of which were absolutely tremendous efforts. That Ole Miss game when he managed to block fifty-something shots with four fouls was nothing short of heroic.
      I'm not disparaging him. I know he was a good kid who worked his arse off. I'm just pointing out that because he was on such a mediocre team, he hardly gets mentioned.

        I'm changing my prediction: 2-6.

          Remaining 5 games

          2-3
          Extremism is so easy. You've got your position, and that's it. It doesn't take much thought. And when you go far enough to the right you meet the same idiots coming around from the left.

            Obviously have to win the three at home.

            If they go 3-2 then that puts them at .500 in conference play.

            Which means they're probably one of those teams that need to win a game in the SEC Tournament to feel safe.

            The best you can really ask for at this point would be the home wins, maybe one in St. Louis, and a 9/10 seed. If they drop any of those homes games they're in real danger.

              I think we’ll lose to Bama.

                I do to....

                I also think Porter Jr is set to return against us and if he does I think we lose that game also.

                Would not be surprised to see this team finish the season 2-3 or 1-4 now. They are broken and I don't think they will be fixed.

                  I agree going down against Bama and Mizzou (if M Porter in the mix, otherwise 50/50)
