I'm afraid this team isn't what we thought it was. At least not in the last 3 halves they've played.

That three made me say some choice words. C’mon guys. They better come out the second half ready to play.

Javin looks to just do his own thing. There was no reason to double 50 feet away from the basket.

Poor FT shooting, one dimensional offense, poor post defense. This team is what it is. They’ll still do pretty well in the ACC, but they’re not the best team in America.

Stupid defense at the end. I think I would sit Jones some and let Goldwire play. Just don't play both because if they hit a shot of any kind it's luck.

That's a really bad play by Javin to end the half. No awareness of the situation. There was still 7 seconds left on the clock when he attempted the double team. Less than that, then maybe the double would have made more sense to try to run out the clock.

It would have been nice to have went in down only 7, but being down 10 is not too bad considering how badly we played for most of the first half. We can win this game, and I think we will. We've righted the ship, just need to hit turbo.

I hope you are right but I don’t see it. They are getting way to many good looks

Why do players like William's always seem to make big shots against us. The 4th three pointer all year he has made! We have got to come out aggressively in the 2nd half or this could be 2 in a row!!!

I think he had to try and give Tre some help because he has been absolutely getting dealt with by Johnson. Let Williams shoot that and live with it.

I’m more just frustrated with the fact that teams are just playing harder Than we do. Louisville came out and punched us in the face. We didn’t respond at all until Joey got that tech.

Honestly, we could erase 10 points if Tre could keep his man on front of him. They score every time he gets by him.

Johnson is killing us so far...having a career night which is a shock...not.....someone always does. Thats about as good as Louisville can play though so i doubt they can keep that up second half. If we play better that we did in the first without turning it over we win. Big IF though

I guess I’m not real upset with Javin in that situation. I’d rather Williams shoot a wide open three than Johnson make another layup. You need to make Johnson give up the ball.

Man, I see a lot of post getting on Jav, but if I must say, Tre is getting abused right now, I hope he comes out ready to challenge Johnson or try Goldwire on him.
