I think the 'we were tired' thing is convenient but is being overplayed. I recall Wheels said that that wasn't a factor and if you can't get up for these games then wtf (paraphrasing). Washington had played 12 post season games going into their series with the Lightning and Winnipeg played 12 going into their series against Vegas. Yeah, Nash was a difficult series but so was Wash / Pitt. Wash also needed 7 games to beat the Lightning - another physical grueling series - and they are matching Vegas in play in the first two games (yes there were some days off). But a more effective strategy has a lot to do with that of course.
Of course there is a physical effect, but to what extent are the Jets affected compared to other teams? If we were already that tired after 12 playoff games, that doesn't bode well for us for future post season runs. But I am not worried because I think the 'we were tired' thing is just being overplayed.
I think using a blanket statement that anything that didn’t work well must be coaching related, to be a simpletons argument, much much more convenient than fatigue.
I can tell you struggle with comprehending why we didn’t have that half step that you keep regurgitating, and repeatedly trying to convince the board its all on Maurice. I pretty much dispelled your angle in a previous post, one you chose not to respond to, because its quite obvious when challenged on your view, you cannot back it up.
Like Washington did, we beat Vegas once as well. So much like most of your posts, you have stated nothing of relevance above, just taking some pieces of info and trying to piece together your fragile angle that we lost because of Maurice.
Answer this question, please:
What team would you expect to have a ½ step on the other team:
a) A team that was rested for 5 days
b) A team that was rested for 1 day
Please answer and please oh please explain your reasoning, for a good laugh today?
