That narrative is highly influenced by a couple big wins coupled with low expectations.

More so by how poorly they played when the three came back.  Obviously the team was more talented with Davis, Wills and Zaire. And certainly better with them over the course of the season.  But when they came back, they were awful. And the team floundered. Don’t know what happened.

Given how they were playing before the injuries, it would be hard to say they were better without those guys (at most, you could say we didn't lose a step, but again, that is highly influenced by beating UCLA).  Surely we should have been capable of playing better with those guys than without, and this was not a case of addition by subtraction, but rather, when those guys came back, subtraction by addition.  Whatever happened, it was a disaster, and reflects poorly on Davis, Wills, and Williams, as well as the coaching staff.
