Snider has always been limited physically. In order for him to help the team he has to take care of the ball, and knock down shots - which he has proven to be capable of doing. He did neither, and when that happens he's a liability.

In his defense, he probably didn't think coming to UofL would come with so much off the court problems with the program. He hasn't had the benefit of a smooth journey.

Adel has disappeared, for a while I thought he was going to take over.
He needed some help - someone to get him the ball in good spots - wish he could but, he’s not going to rise up over two guys and hit the J consistently. Really poor PG play.

It is going to be a long year offensively. They appear to be very easy to defend. Offensively, I think it is actually a terrible mix players. Snider is going to struggle to get by anyone. King and Deng are basically the same player skill wise, neither guy has really good handle or passing ability. They can both get their own shot but most of the time it will be a challenged shot because neither guy is able to take their guy off the dribble. Inside guys are what they are below average offensive players.

They are built to be very good defensively. That is the only reason they had a shot in the game.

Never drink the Ray Spalding koolaid! The guy is SOFT, SOFT, SOFT - bottom line. That will never change.

He plays "small" for a guy 6'10". For instance, on the play where he drove the edge of the lane in the second half, notice the "release point" of his shot, instead of extending and using his length he basically shot it from his hip and of course he didn't score it. I will never understand him.

Ray is losing out on setting up generations of his family with an NBA contract. Instead, I'm convinced and confident that never happens. The two freshman at Duke will eat him alive. Tired of watching the guy.
