Six things you can count on…
Death, taxes and
Niners losing to a mediocre team early in the season…
Niners not having the killer instinct and relaxing a little too early (Rutgers, ULL)…
Niners coming out of the gate slowly…
AND
Niners, despite all of the above, coming out focused and winning a BIG game (Syracuse, Alabama).
I have been a fan of this program for so long that I actually come to expect all of the above.
Just imagine how good this team will be when A) Curtis puts together a complete game, B) Eddie and Mitch quit being sloppy with the ball, C) Martin gets just a little more confidence around the basket, and D) EJ and LeeMire get more comfortable with their new teammates.
Oh yeah, you can add one more to the above list…
Niners get better as the year progresses, just in time for the stretch run and the tourney.
