Negatives and a couple positives...

Negatives: We got outrebounded 51 to 39 by a team playing basically 4 guards and one big man including 18 to 13 on offensive rebounds.
We had 20 turnovers and they had 16 steals against us. We shot horrible from the free throw line again. Pitino has no excuse for leaving Mason on the bench. He was our best player and one of the best 3 on the court.

Positives: King with 9 rebounds. Mason..stellar is he really a freshmen he looks like Cobb did as a junior at CAl. That is about it folks.

Time to rebound against Georgia.

Looking at the stats on the season against 1 great team, 2 good teams, and 2 cupcakes.
3pt shooting: Dre 44%, Mason 60%, Morris 36%. The bad King 21%, Buggs 28%, lil Dre 33%. Not that they cant shoot a 3 in the flow of the offense but both King and Buggs wether they are hot or not will jack a 3 up at any point in a game. Fustrating.
Free throw shooting. EE 28% for a sr! Buggs 50%.
FG% bad Dre 39%, Morris, King 36%. Good Mason 51%, MO 57%, EE 64%.
Also dissapointed in EE .6 blocks per game.
stls: Morris 2, lil D 2.8, MO 1.6.
For those missing McNeil, he was giving us 3.3 pts, 3.3 r, 2.5 ass, .8 stls, .8to, shooting 25% of ft, 26% on Fg, and 14% on 3's. He is a steady guard who cannot shoot.
**Mason should be getting 30 min a game. His 4.6 reb per game is tied for the team lead!

As much as everyone was criticizing King last game, I liked his game. He at least had a pulse. Nobody else looked like they wanted to be there...lazy ball handling/passing, lack of effort on the defensive end, poor leadership and communication. King has his limits, but I like how he was giving effort on the boards and taking charges and at least trying.
