People are insane reading into these stats. You realize we played a professional basketball player who was 1st team all-WCC and another 1st team all-MAC. Like they're professionals guys...if they didn't have a positive point production in the paint it would be a terrible sign for them.
People don't realize this, but half the players in the sec don't even play professional basketball. Meaning the NBA is the absolute best of the best, but other leagues are littered with players who at one time got a shot in the NBA or were studs in college. We aren't just playing bums off the street that have no background in basketball
For more reference: you know who played for the Sydney Kings 2 years ago? Charles Carmouche. He was a stud for us and he eventually got cut

Great point for perspective. Also to add to that, LSU practiced together 10 days prior to going over there. That is a very, very short time to go play against pros who have continuity with the rules and LSU having 3 new freshmen who play huge minutes. I feel it was a great showing and will pay dividends down the road.
