Fill in the blanks. Awful, lame, embarrassing, dumb, inept, clueless, etc,etc,etc....
I have been watching Cardinal basketball for over four decades and I don't think I've ever seen them this bad at the center position. There were seasons where we didn't really have a real center. Think Ellis Myles. But we have three guys 6'10 and taller and not one of them can perform at anything near a top level college program. Mangok hands are weak and he has no hoops IQ. Onuaku looks like he has cement in his feet and looking to score is a foreign idea to him. Mahmoud just isn't strong enough to play inside. I really can't blame him.
I was really hoping Jaylen Johnson would get a lot of minutes in this game but Pitino doesn't want him to play center. I'm sure he has his reasons but how worse could Johnson be than the other three?
I think this game proves once and for all that you can't play winning ball when you have no low post game unless you have 3 pt shooters. And we all know we don't have neither.
