Open Thread: Louisville vs. Georgetown College
Nothing has been OK since the Michigan State game last March, so I'm not even thinking twice about doing this...

Is this being streamed in any way?
Stuck in class in Cincinnati, I could use an assist.

Is the postgame press conference that is shown on the jumbotron after the games streamed on the C-J or any other site?

I don't think so
I think it is stretched/warped SD. . .which is worse than normal SD IMHO.

k thanks
I just had a major surgery. I need to feel good for once in a while. Thank god for cardinal Basketball. I was in the hospital watching cardinal football game and I could think about was at least I could die and have a heart attack in UofL Hospital. I’ll at least go out as a Card.

You wanna make a bet
Louisville will lose a game early in the season. (They always Do)
Then they’ll win like 17 straight.
hasn’t that happened the last 3 seasons?

I know it's early
but the Swop-Delk combo is the biggest question mark on this team. They are going to make or break this season. And I don’t know how good they are, or if they are ready for prime time. Swop added muscle which is quite obvious. I like Kuric more than Delk. Marra is going to get minutes for sure.
by cardscott5 on Oct 28, 2009 7:42 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs
Agree 110%
I think we see Buckles in the starting 5 by January and I like Kuric spending more time on the court than Delk…The Delk we have seen so far at UofL is nothing like the Delk that we saw at Mississippi State

The team hasn't practiced passing yet. Or free throws
The team needs to wake up and take Georgetown seriously

We unfortunately still have no perimeter game
Outside shooting awful with little ball movement
Very sloppy and painfully weak stuff right now…

Going to enjoy watching Siva
He’s made a couple freshman mistakes, but he’s one of the few playing fearlessly tonight. Also nice that he makes his freethrows.
by loverofthegame on Oct 28, 2009 8:08 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs
Once he gets better on defense...
…could the combo of Siva & Preston in the backcourt be peskier than Mcgee & Preston
Watching Siva just now on D I can see possibilities
Too soon?

The nerves are very apparent.
Lots of shots are just off. Especially for a team that was shooting well over 50% in the red/white scrimmages.
I would expect not just the second half, but the Bellarmine exhibition to be much better.

In fact, Siva might challenge Smith for top bench cheerer this season.

im right with you…… I t hink this team may be young but they posses several attributes that last years team didnt. not to meantion the progress that sam sam, jennings, swop and the others will / have made.
I see a lot I like. I know people call me nuts but I have been saying since last season that this team could easily be as good as last years.
As far as the game is concerned the one thing that sticks out to me is Siva is freakin smokin fast……

T-Will's shoes = not small
Plenty of talent on this team but who will be the go-to player in end-of-game situations?
When’s the last time Louisville had a true point guard that’s better at his position that 90% of the teams he’ll face? Certainly seems like a possibility with Siva.
