Manhandled. Milicievic played 33 minutes and had 3 rebounds and 6 points. Carroll had a tough game. Filip scored well but had at least three one handed telegraphed passes for turnovers and was horrible on defense. Not sure how you justify Moore getting 32 minutes and 5 points. Anderson played hard and very well. Wright got 6 minutes and zero points. Fitting end to a terrible season.

Can't win a game when three guys shoot 5-26
Millicievic was outmaned by Reed and Reibe in every game this year. I believe he scored no more than 6 points, at the highest in the three games. It is a shame he had to play the 5. Filip is a guy I sit and watch, alternating between "what kind of pass to that was a nice pass" and "stop shooting, to, nice shot." Many times it is stop dribbling the ball and then throwing it to someone with seconds left on the shot clock
It is a shame we left 11 points on the line and a couple of 1-1 misses, but getting beaten 28 to 40 on rebound spells disaster for most teams. They beat X on every stat but TOs, where we both had 10.

Things to improve on next year are layups, guys getting close, and just throwing something in the air hoping it goes in doesn't lead to scores. Richard teach the guys you have next year that the backboard is there when they are shooting off balance. Larry Bird made a good living using the backboard
I asked a ref if he could give me a technical foul for thinking bad things about him. He said, of course not. I said, well, I think you stink. And he gave me a technical. You can't trust em.

Anyone else notice when Coach Pitino started talking about retaining players Tre Carroll looked right at Coach!?
