11/9/22 LOUISVILLE VS BELLARMINE GAME THREAD- 9PM ACC NETWORK

Every single made shot by Bellarmine has been wide open which was what I expected. Cards once again struggle when KP substitutes.

Going to have to win with offense. If the Cards shoot under 45 percent they will probably lose.
 
Can't say KP doesn't care about losing this game like that exhibition game, but he's substituting the same way.
 
Ellis is just trying too hard. I just don't get why we don't post Curry. We should have gotten him the ball on the block 4 or 5 times by now.

Yeah zero post presence so far from this team. It's just pass around the perimeter and chuck 3s.
 
This team is lazy. Bare minimum we should he dominating the boards. BHH is afraid to do anything with the ball in his hands on the block.

Payne was preaching pride in wearing the uniform. These guys don’t have it. They should be embarrassed. Outplayed and out hustled and less physical than Bellarmine
 
With the exceptions of Withers and Ellis, you could hang your clothes on the rest of their jumpers. Going to be a season of front and back rim misses.
 
I have no earthly idea what they were thinking by no getting actual guards in the portal. If something happens to Ellis they have nothing behind them.

This year is going to be ugly. Here is what is going to happen every guard is going to go straight at Ellis force him to play defense which he doesn’t do well. They will dominate him or get him to foul.
 
This is an embarrassment. It’s one thing to be limited offensively but when you don’t give a sh!t on defense or rebounding then you don’t deserve to wear the UofL jersey. I feel like a damn fool renewing my season tickets. Payne not getting some grad transfers was coaching malpractice.
 
The overall 1v1 and team defense was awful in the 1st half. Defense has to to improve in the 2nd half or they are going to get ran.

Bellarmine is tough to defend the way they move the ball and move w/o the ball but c’mon guys.

Have to get more fastbreak and transition baskets.
 
The ball just swings around the perimeter. Have yet to see many low post entry passes.
 
This is currently a one dimensional team. A one trick pony. I haven't seen one set play this entire game. No inbound plays, No plays off of missed free throws, nothing is getting set. This is primarily back yard ball without a leader.
 
Much better defense this half. Getting some good shot opportunities off of dribble penetration as well.

A few more easy ones in transition might flip this game.

Kamari needs to hit these open 3s that’s 3-4 this game he has missed all wide open we also need to get the ball down low
 
I hate to say this but with 11:24 left in the game I can tell we will not win this game.
