Here's my eternal optimism.... .....We just flat out have to have our backs against the wall in order to perform at a high level. It's a HUGE conspiracy going on. See since we are favorites we have made a concerted effort to make ourselves the underdog in a controlled environment so that we can propell ourselves into a championship. I don't know why I was so upset last night, this should have been so clear to me instantly. Here I am blaming Flip for going small when we were being hammered on the boards, blaming Chauncey for TO's that killed our momentum, when all the while they were doing what was neccessary to make us underdogs, so we could become champions.....oh yeah Flip and Chauncey have made the greatest playoff adjustments of all time with this move.
