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...

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.

Wow...
My first time seeing Siva in live action. He’s lightning quick and looks to be super athletic.
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.
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

These are the cards. Trust me they will heat up soon.
2nd half will be much better.
But I rather have this than football right now.

We are obviously a little rusty..
…but I like the talent we see on the floor, and we are really gonna be coming together over the next month

The difference between Sosa & Siva...
is on display tonight
by Luke Whitehead's Rap Career on Oct 28, 2009 7:56 PM EDT reply actions
Obviously pure speed is a factor.

How about the play by play guy?
So much better than the last guy who sucked. Although they kind of sound the same
We always have a problem making the extra pass early in the season

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…
Have we had a faster point guard than Siva in recent memory?
by Luke Whitehead's Rap Career on Oct 28, 2009 8:04 PM EDT reply actions
Georgetown is 2" shorter per man-- but quicker
Than us, which is obviously frustrating our offense flow
L'ville might not out-rebound a lot of Big East Teams...
but nobody will out-tattoo our team this year

clown tats
you’re gonna like the way you look, I guarantee it.
by UL is my hot hot sex on Oct 28, 2009 8:21 PM EDT up reply actions
SiVa is looking sharpest of the guards
Also showing real aggressive D— very quick
Sosa’s hang dog face says " I’m not doing good"
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.
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?
by Luke Whitehead's Rap Career on Oct 28, 2009 8:08 PM EDT reply actions
Siva looks like...
….he could be a very very good basketball player in his time here. Glad to see Edgar get some points…good sign.
Please
can someone post the score and remaining time?
by TLS on Oct 28, 2009 8:09 PM EDT via mobile reply actions
halftime...score doesnt really matter today
i mean it does…but it doesnt
and that was only after a last second 3 by Sosa
Pitino said they’re really nervous and it shows. Lots of sloppy passing, dribbling, decision making, etc…it’s an exhibition game. No worries.

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.
thanks....
but will someone watching the game post the real score.

2nd Half Adjustments
Low Post scoring, defensive intensity, establish rythym on O

Speaking of AP rankings
What’s everyone’s prediction on what L’ville will be ranked in the first poll?
by UL is my hot hot sex on Oct 28, 2009 8:20 PM EDT reply actions
Lower than we will in the last poll
and that’s all that matters. This team’s only going to get better.
Do we know why Samardo changed his number?
by Luke Whitehead's Rap Career on Oct 28, 2009 8:21 PM EDT reply actions
this team needs a shot of Preston...
not on the bench… nice finger roll swop
by CaptainCrunchZone on Oct 28, 2009 8:28 PM EDT reply actions
the 3 spot will be an interesting development as the season goes on...
by CaptainCrunchZone on Oct 28, 2009 8:32 PM EDT reply actions
very true... all the scoring is at 2, 4, 5
if teams double samardo we have to get production behind the 3 point line from the 3 spot

First time they’ve looked really good consecutive trips down the court
Score/Time update

Jerry Smith makes me nervous after this performance...
…and his performance in the scrimmage
by Luke Whitehead's Rap Career on Oct 28, 2009 8:48 PM EDT reply actions
Preston played 3 min first half; Jerry 4 min
More energy and trapping D
Georgetown seems to have weathered it for the moment— with better ball movement and outside shooting
sitting on press row tonight— we have lost 1 exhibition game i’m last 26…

kaptain kuric...
nice follow up dunk!

“there’s kuric, who can jump”
WTF? That’s racist, bro.

Nothing like

What an incredibly stupid pass by the Georgetown dude
Siva looks electric and erratic. One minute Chris Paul, the next Greg Paulus
Siva is going to be to watch over the next few years.
He’s the type of PG we never seem to get, but I love to watch.
Suva bringing the most energy and
Highlight moments right now…
Still no perimeter shooting, no rebounding though by the Cards…
by frankpos on Oct 28, 2009 9:00 PM EDT via mobile reply actions
In fact, Siva might challenge Smith for top bench cheerer this season.
Lots of fist pumping and chest thumping from the freshman (in a good way).
anyone baggin krag at the game tonight?
by CaptainCrunchZone on Oct 28, 2009 9:02 PM EDT reply actions
Georgetown wearing down a bit...
First slight lead at 5 thru Suva feed..
by frankpos on Oct 28, 2009 9:04 PM EDT via mobile reply actions
Siva looks out of control all the time..
..but he is in complete control (I think), either that or he operates better out of control

Bad Sosa: The Return
Coming to a Court Near You… In HD!
Looks like 1 more year ....
before Swop starts playing above the rim… like the progress I’m seeing though
by CaptainCrunchZone on Oct 28, 2009 9:12 PM EDT reply actions
definitely a better player this year
more confidence, offensive fluidity
by UL is my hot hot sex on Oct 28, 2009 9:13 PM EDT up reply actions
Unfortunately, only thingthat looks better than last yr
Is Siva so far
badass behind back dribble in traffic assist to Swop. 67-59

Looks stronger

my 5 after this game....
Siva, Knowles, Kuric, Swop, Samuels
by CaptainCrunchZone on Oct 28, 2009 9:17 PM EDT reply actions
We won't be very good without Smith and Sosa stepping up.
Not to say your 5 aren’t the best 5 tonight.
Frankpos: I think Kuric looks 5 X better than last year
by UL is my hot hot sex on Oct 28, 2009 9:18 PM EDT reply actions
Even though they've only practiced a few days...
This team seems to be more fluid than last year’s team. Last year neer seemed to have a consistent rhythm except for the Arizona game, my mid season I have relatively high expectations for these guys….. thoughts?

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.
