LOUISVILLE VS WAKE FOREST GAME THREAD
- Thread starter shadow force
- Start date
Anybody notice that McMahon has moved his range out by about 2 feet?
Thinking the same thing. He was going to have to after getting some of those closer in attempts blocked.
When Sutton is out we lose that weak side rebounding. Coaches need to have the other players watch the game film and focus on what Sutton does.
Another common thread with VJ and Perry is turrible shot selection.
Vj after his one shot attempt was bad . passed on a wide open 8 ft baseline look
Perry took the right shot on the break from the FT line just didn't fall
Perry took the right shot on the break from the FT line just didn't fall
Not bad shots. Just didn’t fall. Both are playing hard and within themselves. Pull for these two. The team needs them to do well.
Go Cards
L1C4
Perry’s shot was fine - that 15’ fade away drifting to his left from VJ was doody.
Even if he made it.
Fade a way jumper off balance is not a good shot!
I am rooting for King and Perry and they are playing better. I hope they can hold their ground and not cost us in close games. Mistakes don't show when we are up by 25.
I don't think he has quit... he just looks really uncomfortable and unsure out there. Specifically on offense. It was nice to see him finish one on the break.
Good game, but our reserves need to step tf up, aside from Enoch, who’s not really even a reserve, just splits with Malik. Nwora, Sutton, CC, Fore, and Mcmahon( occasionally )give us such a lift offensively. Defensively Nwora has picked up a lot of steam, and Williams and Enoch have been doing decent, still need to work on consistent blocking out. Sutton generally always plays at a high level, and I’m liking what I’m seeing out of Fore. VJ still plays very tense and awkward, but has at least been playing decent defense, and rebounding. Overall, we look better every game we play. Go Cards, on to the Tar Heels! I’ll be at the game, super excited!
He is a coach. He strives for perfection and while that is unattainable, it won't stop him from chasing it.
Coaches are never satisfied, and they shouldn't be until they cut the nets down.
Even if the Cards had won by 30 Coach Mack would have disliked something.
I like that. Sign of a top notch Coach.
Want him to relax and play with confidence.
He does neither.
He could be the difference between a SS, E8 or F4 team.
He's not forcing anything, yet he plays like a nervous meerkat when he has the ball in his hands.
Just relax young fella-
100000000% agree. We all understand this game we love is made up of nothing but mistakes. The team that makes fewer (and I'm not just talking about turnovers) will win the game. Teams that execute offensive and defensive plays while striving for perfection are the elite teams.
Coach Mack is doing his part to make this team as good as they can be. Vince hit a 600 foot home run by hiring Chris Mack as head basketball coach. I have complete faith in his ability to do the job.
Man they looked great last night. The only missing piece to this team is an intimidating enforcer like Trez or Gorgui down low. I love this team, so fun to watch and I think we can all agree that Coach Mack deserves ACC Coach of the Year and it's not even close. He scrambled and ducktaped together a team that is not only competitive (all we hoped for going in, realistically) but is a Top 25 team that can beat anyone on a given night.
All this, after losing 96% (I think) of the offense from an NIT team.
With good reason. We need that lineup, which included VJ King, to at least hold the line against Wake Forest, not lose 15 points. We are going to need that lineup to have productive minutes in the coming month and in the tournaments.
