Boom. Spot on.

You people forget this is the NIT. Not many people care, and look how much post-match coverage it got on espn and sportscenter. None.

There's no such thing as an embarrassing loss in the NIT. The season ended in New Orleans. It's like being angry because NFL players don't try hard enough in the Pro Bowl.

There really are some special people on this board.

Plus if we're just talking basketball games that sucked, the game where Meeks scored 2000 points against us is worse than this.

Not many VNers old enough to remember either one

Guess I am. Hell; I went to MSG in 1985 and watched Don Devoe's team get killed by Bobby Knight's Indiana squad in our semi-final match up. Uwe Blab had his career game that night. But we won 3rd place the next night.
