More than anything else, the team has been emotional, resilient, and spirited during this streak. And that is what they have lacked most and been very inconsistent with, over the last two years.

Getting the team playing well, and playing with passion and confidence, is part of the coach's job (yes, it is also on the players as well). He has gotten them to the level they need to be at. However, we have seen that for stretches in the past as well. The mark of a good coach, is the ability to get the team to keep it going, to be more consistent.

Let's see if he can do that. Let's see if this is just another short streak to be followed by them sliding back into all their issues, or if they have actually turned a corner.

Good post. Totally fair evaluation and criticisms. I get the sense that we won't see any more prolonged periods of uninspired play from this group. Just a feeling I have, nothing concrete.
