****Game Chat: UK versus Bama****
- Thread starter UKortho
- Start date
Don't worry guys! Pope understands the assignment!
Brilliant game plan on a team that shoots more than half its shots from 3. Again Pope’s defensive strategy is hoping the opponent misses open shots.
Another game I've turned off in the first half. Sucks being a UK basketball fan these past several years. I guess I expect better......
No effort, no energy, just another embarrassing half of basketball. Tired of Alabama kicking our asses every year on the court this s**t is unacceptable!
Well. We’re at full strength, and look worse than ever.
Anyone defending Pope is not a UK fan! This is pathetic
He quit as soon as they named him SEC pre season player of the year!
You most certainly have. It’s downright embarrassing.
Go back to what I said before the game started. Keep the get down 15 strategy. Pope special. Kentucky basketball is still a joke. Was under Calapari the last five years and is now with Pope. Damn
Similar level of effort that we saw against Louisville, MSU and Gonzaga. Pathetic
We might not be as talented as Alabama, especially on the perimeter. But our effort is -10 right now. They mailed this game in when we got down 10. We are weak mentally and I doubt anything changes that.
I love the idea of Pope at UK but it's more than clear at this point that it will not work. They have to make a change after this season.
Pope is playing the wrong players, expected them to perform. They aren’t. Oweh cannot, will not, ever be the star of any team. Period. Garrison is a bench player. Chandler is incapable, now if not forever. He refuses to accept all of that. We burned an insane amount of money betting on Oweh being a superstar. He will never.
Because Pope’s rotations/ gameplan etc are bad. We are going to watch a team that is going to get “theirs” now.
no defense, no effort, no rebounding, wide open three-pointers.
And Pope is such pu&&y that he would never bench anyone or get up in their butt and ignite a fire
PERIOD!!!
Beginning to think he's a false Pitino prophet
The game got out of hand AFTER Lowe and Quaintance started playing. LOL at the people trumpeting them starting. Pope Deragement Syndrome has eaten them alive.
Probably because you rip anyone that says anything negative, but here you are critisizing a player. Does that seem odd to you?
It never fails.
When you let a team hit a bunch of wide open 3's, they start feeling it and get their confidence. Then they start making the hard ones.
Sometimes people just make tough shots. Those hurt that much more when you've already given up several wide open threes.
We have players who can shoot there is no rhythm on offense and we need that. If you can't understand that, you clearly don't comprehend basketball
