January 29, 200818 yr Final... Louisville did not play well at all. Shot 20 three's in the first half, making only five. Didn't rebound well. AJ Price made more prayers tonight than I believe I've ever seen, not to mention anytime he got trapped he pushed off and threw elbows. Very disappointing game, in what should have been a victory on the road...
January 29, 200818 yr Author Not to mention we are possibly the WORST free throw shooting team in America. Will Scott should NEVER come in the game for Jerry Smith, in fact, Im really not sure why Pitino puts him in the times he does...
January 29, 200818 yr Author I almost knew they were going to get a terrible last shot, even when they got the ball with about 22.7 seconds on the clock. And alas, I was right. Palacios STEPS BEHIND THE LINE to shoot a three to win instead of taking the two for the tie, and freakin' bangs it off the backboard...And as for Sosa, I just don't know what his problem is.
January 29, 200818 yr ^^^I agree very disapointing. I am very tired of watching the Cards take so many 3's. They have to be the best 3 point shooters in the world. Just wished they would become 3 point makers. I expect more from Tello at the end of a game. He nows he should have shot a 14ft shot instead of a step back 3. I am about over him and look forward to his scholarship being open. As for Pitino, he needs to start winning these games. It's starting to become unacceptable.
January 29, 200818 yr David Padgett doesn't get enough touches. UL settles for the three way too much, IMHO.
January 29, 200818 yr Author I don't understand what they're fascination with shooting three's is... So many times they could get WAY better looks if they rotate the ball, but they instead choose to jack them up with no team mates in rebounding position.

Sosa has an ego problem. Next time you see him on campus hit him in the head with a French Horn.
January 29, 200818 yr Author David Padgett doesn't get enough touches. UL settles for the three way too much, IMHO. I could not agree more...When the offense runs through Padgett, we get many very good looks... On the opposite end of that spectrum, I felt like David was WIDE open at the free throw line tonight and didn't take the shot. They weren't even guarding him when he caught the ball there. If he would actually take those jumpers and cause people to close out on him, it would open more assist opportunities along the baseline, IMO.
January 29, 200818 yr Author Can anyone tell me how many minutes DC played? If I had to guess, I'd say around 10-12...Maybe as much as 15, but I doubt it.
January 29, 200818 yr I hate to see Padget go to the free throw line. He cant get any lift from his legs, ball is like a bullet.

January 29, 200818 yr Author I hate to see anybody from our team go to the line...It's getting pathetic.
January 29, 200818 yr I will have to say that Preston Knowles should be taking some of Sosa minutes. This kid makes plays when he is in the game.
