storm would have helped with 5 or 6 good minutes .. Q is just zero offensive threat and has been all season and commits fouls like a microwave .. he did a good job saturday .. but you're right .. it was 4 on 5 ... storm put up some points in the mississippi state double OT game ... UNC was just the first team LSU's played this season that actually trapped hard, challenged every pass, poked at the dribble and just had hands in passing lanes at all times ... i guess TJ was just concerned with marcus handling the ball in double teams .. he does have that dribble off his foot tendency ... guess he just trusted bo and garrett's decision making a little better ...

tasmin mitchell has got to work on going straight up with the ball in the offseason, puts it on the floor way too much in traffic, and has to work on his finese around the glass ... looks like he's playing hand ball sometimes inside or something .. also, awareness of where you are on the court .. how many times does he get himself literally under the basket and still tries to score ?

Bottom line was that LSU just didn't have the horses to run with UNC for a full 40 minutes. With a lack of an inside game, LSU has to shoot lights out from the perimeter. While we did do this at times, we also went into droughts. Against a team like UNC, that kills you.

But, you have to be proud of the way LSU competed. They left it all on the floor, it just wasn't enough against one of the best teams in the tourney.
