Is this the best thing that could have happened? This team currently was not going to beat Colorado in the CCG the way they’ve been playing. And if they made the playoff they would have gotten beaten soundly by a good team and really set perceptions back a lot.
Maybe (and please let me be right) this is the shakeup they need. No more undefeated monkey on our backs. Yes each game means a lot still and our margin for error is zero but the team has just been sleep walking it seems at least offensively.
If this serves to wake them up I’d prefer a loss now than getting embarrassed in the CCG or playoff.
