You may disagree, and it may be because you are talking about this single game. I am talking about the season, and I am not assuming anything. Again, goodbye NIT. We, game in and game out, are not good fundamentally and our not a three point team. I didn't blame anybody for this loss, including Thomson. I merely feel that although he is a hard working, that he doesn't add much value other than his 5 fouls to give up. I also posted much about TOT, and his need to become a better bench coach. Bottom line - this season is not extraordinary, it is decent. Good enough for us to keep him, not so good to be considered overally successful. Don't expect 3,500 a night next year in Bridgeport unless this team gets to the postseason. Then, we may have a chance. We are NOT finishing the year strongly. In addition, if Gai had 4 fouls in the first half, hypothetically that is, I STILL WANT HIM GETTING MORE THAN 5 SHOTS!!! If our interior defense (and I saw Niagara - and they are stellar inside, they are good, at best) broke down, than maybe we need to bulk up (we look like Children compared to other teams when it comes to strength and bodies) and make use of that wonderful weight room and learn how to play interior defense, as opposed to having Gai try to swat 25 shots a night into the stands. What ever happended to D'ing your man straight up and boxing him after the shot? I am still amazed at how weak we are when it comes to strength and size (width, not height). Nick Delfico looks to be the only player that found the weightroom in the offseason.

CT post said that Delfico had stomach illness and thats why he only played 10 minutes. But Does anyone know why Thomson only got 4 minutes. Of all games, I would have thought he would be most effective against Niagara, especially whn Gai got in foul trouble.

I think we are Big enough (breadth-wise) with Garcia, Thomson and Delfico. 2 of those 3 did not play, but we should still have enough to get the job done.

And is Fellecia so ineffective that he could not be used to try to stop someone on the inside who is killing us?

Amazing how Reaves and Mendez rip us apart, and the only big men to get any minutes are Garcia and Gai. If that doesn't show a complete lack of confidence in Thomson and Fellecia, I'm not sure what does.

Amen, brother. Fellicia has not been given an opportunity to play while Thomson is misused when he's in.
