Have you been on the board much at all this season (not a sarcastic question)? "Doom and gloom" is a perfectly accurate depiction of a strong contingent of the folks on this board after half or so of our losses this year.

And, for what it's worth, I disagree that 50 wins is not impressive. It's certainly not the 60+ win Mavericks of yesteryear, but winning 50 games in a tough conference is impressive to me. I don't come to "expect" anything in sports, personally.
