I think what we've seen the last 4 games is SIGNIFICANT...
The team seems to have bought into Haith's coaching, they're sharing the ball, playing great defense and rebounding.
It feels like last year when we were at the beginning of that streak, only now the team is actually playing better (imo) and more together than they were at their peak last year. Only difference is the new conference.
The good news is, with the exception of Temple and UCONN (perhaps Tulane?), it seems to be a down year for most teams. SMU could be on the verge of getting hot, and Cincy has their own problems (pray their coach gets healthy), but for the most part I believe we can compete with ALL of them.
I do feel bad for Memphis, hopefully Pastner can get them rolling again.
But I feel Haith was spot on when he said we are on an up-tick.
Let the streak begin!
