Can we officially retire the "no one believed in us" meme? No Giants, it wasn't a lack of faith in your abilities, it was you sucking at .500 for most of the season that gave people doubts. It should only be reserved for teams that REALLY get hammered, and were completely discounted unfairly.

What happened to the good ol' JB offense?  Ball movement, back door cuts, and unselfish play?  They've barely had good looks on offense; lots of one on one and forcing it.  The Trey Burke/Morgan pick and roll is not getting us enough open looks.
