Whether you want to believe it or not, that is not what you said.  This is what you said: "[COLOR=#000000]I haven't read the entire thread but I have to say that the only measure that counts is Ws and Ls and by that measure, we are not playing mediocre basketball."[/COLOR]
 
[COLOR=#000000]The only measure that counts is when you win.  And you can go check that two ways:[/COLOR]
 
[COLOR=#000000]1. See UCONN last year (not the most wins and won the tourney).[/COLOR]
[COLOR=#000000]2. Find the last year that the team with the most wins won the tourney.  You're gonna have to look hard.[/COLOR]
 
[COLOR=#000000]UCONN was playing mediocre basketball at 9-9 (pretty much the definition of mediocre) and ended up winning it all thus proving the point that it is not Ws and Ls that matters, it is WHEN you get your Ws and Ls that matter.[/COLOR]
 
[COLOR=#000000]I DO understand your viewpoint and I agree with it.  But you changed it from your initial post by saying that "...the only measure that counts is Ws and Ls..." and that is not correct.[/COLOR]
 
[COLOR=#000000]What you said in this post is dead on.  And you made my point (although I'm not sure you realize that).[/COLOR]
