I'm a Buffalo Bills fan and about 10 seasons ago, we played the Steelers second stringers (they rested thier starters) in the final game of the season. A win would have put us in the post season for the first time in six years. We lost, embarrassing so, and still haven't been to the post season this century (16 years and counting).

Favors and Hayward have been to the playoffs before. They are not excused. Sometimes there just isn't a winning mentality.

and Adam Morrison has championship experience.... Okay maybe not to that extreme, but if playoff experience is measured from 1-100 this team is like a 2.

Favors looked really slow and sloppy tonight. I think they definitely played a little tense and to not lose, still a very inexperienced team and this might actually do them some good in the long run. Sucky game to lose but no need to overreact.

Might. Might not.

If only Alec Burks is back, then he would solve all OUR problems. Or something like that I keep hearing ...

Given that he played about eight minutes in regulation and matched Favors in scoring I don't think him being back was the problem. Not letting him actually BE back was a problem, though.

Ben Dowset is a baby. He blocked me on twitter cause I called him out on his lack of Alec Burks reporting.

I really hope next season doesn't have anywhere near the same amount of frustrating, gut-punch losses. In '07 I think we got beat by buzzer beaters on four separate occasions and even that wasn't as bad as this season has been.

Our average point differential is typical of a 45-34 team and we're 6 games below that because of all the close losses. Ugh.

I think Burks would have made a big difference in many close losses.

He was missed.

Yeah call out a part-time reporter who doesn't give coverage about something the team wasn't discussing in detail with the media. Great job, you showed him!

Okay

Ouch man. (Your point about Hayward and Favors doesn't hold much water but your Bills story is tragic and painful.)

I think Burks might help in some games because he scores points throughout the game, but I don't think Alec moves the needle at all on our most pressing issue, our offense stagnates in the final minutes of close games. Yeah Alec can make something out of nothing, but so can Hayward/Hood. We need to actually execute, not just rely on great individual plays.
