[QUOTE="Eternal Optimist, post: 1837957, member: 748769"] If the problem is ego (which it sounds like that is a large part of it) then hopefully we will start to at least show some heart out there. We have some team focused players for sure, but the handful of players that seem to be the ones already looking to the NBA need to wake up and see that it is a lot harder to get there without having good TEAM success. Not saying it isn’t possible by any means, but I promise any player on our team that thinks they are going pro next year will do it much easier if the team shines first. Hopefully we turn a corner and don’t look back this week. This season is not over, but it could be if they don’t start playing for each other and let the rest of it take care of itself. [/QUOTE]
