actually yes going from next to last to 9th or 10th has a very positive effect... means team is in most games and competing.. they learn how to win.,shows they r becoming more consistent... if we get to 9th or 10th were just 2-5 more wins from making playoffs... another offseason and year of maturity for the young players can absolutely make up those 2-5 games... but falling all the way back does nothing for them and let's losing sink in even more... they need to see absolutely no feel progress... it's imperative for them and their developemnt
In my opinion, this team is leaps and bounds better than last year. They have come a long way and they are getting more consistent and gelling as a team. What I'm saying is, whether They finish dead last, or 10th, they still LOST out on my postseason, which is #1 goal. Every team wants to make it to the playoffs. So, either way, they didn't acheive that goal. Will I be upset to see this team kicking and screaming to the finish line and finish 1 point out, no! I want to see my team play hard every game. I think in the end, If they end up out of the playoffs and out of the McDavid sweepstakes, they've missed out on two very important improvements. I think each player will evaluate their progress, and I am pleased with it overall, but as a team, I don't think finishing 9th over 14th will make a difference really.
