2. Micah Handlogten is really, really good. It's not just the height with him. I mean, that's a lot of it; don't get me wrong. But he really is a solid talent. He moves very well defensively sliding his feet and recovering and has a soft touch around the rim. His activity on the offensive glass...

1. Riley Kugel isn't picking up where he left off. He's great. There's no doubt about that. And he absolutely is this team's best talent. But he doesn't play like a mature basketball player. He doesn't appear right now to be significantly better than he was last season. Which, on one hand...

Zack Weiss once again shares his five main takeaways after the latest Florida men's basketball game, this time a neutral-site loss to the Cavaliers. Read here.

Interesting of note: Golden going with Haugh over Condon down the stretch with Handlogten fouled out.

Finding a way to win this game would be huge for a lot of different reasons. It's not season-defining, of course, with it being so early, but I think a win here could be the catalyst for a lot of good things to come for Golden and this group.

Just saw stat on screen that said the gators are 0-15 under golden in games they trail at the 5-minute mark... that's pretty terrible.

There we go. Get Richard catch-and-shoot 3s. Need to get him going.

Love Thomas Haugh getting active on the boards

Wild Kugel shot from a possession ago has been upgraded to a 3

That's the shot Kugel makes... he'll take it!

You know, I'd love to see some sets ran for Will Richard. I feel like virtually none are. I'd love to see him used a bit how the Warriors use Klay Thompson. A few off-ball plays to get him shots coming off screens early on could be huge for him throughout the rest of games. He's the best...

Situations like this are when Riley Kugel has to step up. His team is struggling offensively. Virginia's knocking down shots. The Gators find themselves down nearly double digits. He has to make a play or two here and get his team back some of the momentum as the "best player." I know he's...

Samuel and Handolgten look like they've worked a lot together on their high-low game. Chemistry between bigs is huge for any team that chooses to start two of them in today's game. The two of them making eachother better on the court will be massive going forward as the season continues for Florida.

Huge for Florida if Will Richard can get going. Great sign to see him knock down a pair of triples there

How do you guys feel about Samuel doing that? Personally, I like it. I don't love it, but I'm not super against it. This Florida team could use some dawg. And he's got it. That "don't help my guy up" mentality could be good for a team with a younger head coach like Golden.

Kugel's been bad defensively. Really lazy off the ball and not boxing out when shots go up. Caused the Virginia three on that last posession.

Kugel is so absurdly athletic, he can get to the rim essentially whenever he wants. He just goes up so confidently — too confidently — that he tries to be fancy and avoids contact. Tonight, it's resulted in multiple missed layup opportunities.

The Gators are two different teams with and without their starting frontcourt (Samuel, Handlogten) in.
