The lack of toughness on this team is astonishing.  Fifty fifty balls effort is a joke. George and JJ in particular just watch.
-our softness was evident in the rebounding, which ultimately was the key to the game. we really only have two guys who make any effort to rebound. And when Donnie and Kyle combine for eight boards, as they did today, we are cooked.
-ultimately the play of the game was the missed dunk when JJ, instead of giving the ball up to Anthony, made it into a more difficult play and missed the dunk. As soft as we are, we crumbled after that. 3-10 with awful d from JJ
-of course, our guards’ defense was a disaster. George’s statistics are misleading. He took a ton of shots and once again did not take care of the ball. More than anyone he was obliterated on defense. But it’s hard to believe that the great defense we saw against Houston in Vegas has simply disappeared. We gave up 85 to this team? This team that just scored 63 against Florida State of all teams? 
-I have no idea why white was matched up late in the game against a guard who could go right by him and go to the basket. The press was an embarrassment.
-it was bad enough that we missed the analysis on George, but to think that we had to take Souare as well is depressing. What a horrific stint he submitted today.
-we have entered the territory where watching these games feels like an obligation/chore more than anything else.
