What does McMahon see in him to make him a starter?

No doubt. And how does he start over Williams who’s riding the bench ?? Head scratcher for sure!!

Givens is a terrible shooter, doesn’t get past his man on the drive, and doesn’t get assists. I know he is a freshman, but have no idea why he even sees the floor.

Hey was a highly rated point guard coming out of high school but I dont see how, hes fricking terrible. He cant shoot and he turn the ball over damn near every time he touches it. Thats called playing scared with no confidence. No type of dog mentality.

Everybody looks worse than they are when you have a coach like this

His last game. He’s a bigger body than sears. He can shoot when open.

Givens starts the second half, immediate turnover on first touch.

Bump because it drives me nuts to see him out there.

0–4, 2 turnovers and bad defense. He’s literally the difference between LSU winning and losing this game so far.

You have to score to beat this team. Sears has to play not Givens

Bump. McMahon might have bet the under on LSU wins. Only explanation for why Givens is still playing.

Exactly!

It’s impossible for his players to perform well in whatever this dogshit offensive approach he has. LSU has one goddamn action!

He has looked better tonight. Has gotten past his man off the dribble and made a few plays. I have been hard on him but he is looking better.

I will never understand how Mike Williams doesn't get more time.

It's much more than that. Are you watching the game?

Most of the players on lsu have played like shite.

I’ve always wondered. How do u get recruited to this level as a guard and not be able to shoot? Surely in high school these guys were high scorers. Seems like we get a bunch that can’t shoot. I’ve known guys that just played like NAIA level and if they were open they could shoot the lights out. Our guys are throwing up bricks consistently

Atl, he lost this game as soon as Cam got the flagrant. He puts Givens, Bailey, Fountain and the worst possible offensive lineup on the floor and we proceed to turn it over 6 times in 2 minutes. They pulled ahead by 11 and you lost all the momentum.
