Somwtimes everything goes well in a particular game and

sometimes everything goes badly.

This was one of the latter. You are playing a top 5-10 team on the road (forget the human polls Sagarin's computer had them more correctly ranked) and you run into a great defensive performance and do everything poorly including missing a lot of free throws.

It happens. It is an outlier performance on the bad side. At some point vs someone we will have an outlier performance on the good side.

Yep performances like this sting but they don't always have to underscore some deeper issues. It was just a bad night.
