***** GAME CHAT: UK vs. UNC *****

[KyKevin]

Jelavic has a nasty post game

He needs to keep it there, instead of the 3

 

[chasingwildcat]

Bad

We should have way more free throws

UNC actually foul a lot

 

[Blue_2_the_bone_rivals]

Jelly in the post and mid range, yes. Jelly from 3, nah.

 

[KentuckyStout]

We a plodding, stagnant offense against any team with a pulse.

 

[Farsight Clone]

Remember for every big game we play, there is always one player who the refs single out and if you sneeze on them its a flagrant 40.

 

[sefus12]

When the “fouled” player doesn’t even react with a “where’s the call”, that’s a pretty good sign it was a damn clean steal.

 

[chasingwildcat]

At l

What the hell is wrong with Williams? Cannot even hit the rim on a wide open three.

Ay least he can defend

But don't know why suddenly he can't shoot at all

 

[KyKevin]

Do we make a 3 in the 2nd half? I'm leaning towards no.

Yes

 

[HagginHall1999]

Hope for this season may come down to the second half of this game. Unreal.

It is really hard to say that considering circumstances. I get it is frustrating...the reality is this team is significantly shorthanded. They are flawed, no doubt, but assuming we get healthy this will be an enirely different team two months from now.

 

[mash_24]

if unc was hot we would be down 20

We’re 0-8 from 3.

 

[OliverSimmonsTwinBrother]

This team is hard to watch man. Such ugly basketball and constantly getting lost and out hustled.

 

[3 Putts]

No ball movement to set these guys up, a true PG would help imo. Been a long time since I’ve seen an offense flow this poorly.

 

[katwest]

Williams is either great or unplayable

Making threes at Tulane is a little easier than at Kentucky. I thought he was coming around some and then the air ball.

 

[UKJenning]

Who the hell assembled a team full of non shooters?

 

[chasingwildcat]

Dog fight with Hubert Davis team

Bad

 

[megablue]

15-30
0-8 threes
15/22 2PFGS = 68%

 

[gbl97]

Where are the strong cuts to the basket? Guys are just jogging. Easy to guard.

We need somebody with a mean streak. Diabate should be that guy but apparently has the ankle strength of a baby giraffe.

Pope did a piss poor job putting this team together. I don't see how some can even debate it.

Both two teams are playing Calipari basketball...

 

[Anon1759768907]

genuinely play hawthorne over kam

 

[wccat]

00 not living up to his preseason hype. He is not even the main guy on a team void of stars.

 

[Anon1759768907]

Bo

Both two teams are playing Calipari basketball...

except one team has somewhat calipari talent...

 

[Catlogic1552]

Going to be a rough year. Talent isn’t there.

 

[warrior-cat]

Well, at least we aren't getting blown out. That's a plus.

Not yet.

 

[fisherscatfan]

This is hard to watch. If Lowe isn’t playing and Pope doesn’t pull a rabbit out of his hat with a mid year acquisition this is going to be long muck it up year.

Right now UK has several issues:

-lack of penetration
-lack of hustle
-lack of rebounding
-mediocre shooters

 

[Rainmaker]

Do we make a 3 in the 2nd half? I'm leaning towards no.

We will hit 7.

 

[KyCPA2000]

Even when the PG was healthy we still couldn't make 3s. That really lowers the ceiling for this team if that continues because we don't have a guy that can take over a game.

 

[chasingwildcat]

The frontcourt rotation should only consist of Moreno, Kam and Jela

 

[mash_24]

Pope did a piss poor job putting this team together. I don't see how some can even debate it.

It would be really nice to see the full team that he recruited. And no offense is gonna look good when you’re just jogging like you’re in pre game.

 

[BMR1987]

The good news is we're playing a Top 25 team and not down by a million points for once even though our shots aren't falling.

The bad news is this officiating crew is giving us the road whistle at home and we might end up having to finish this game with Garrison, Noah, Jelavic, and the walk-ons.

 

[warrior-cat]

if unc was hot we would be down 20

They are as bad as we are at this point in the season. Mich St. throttled them too.

 

[KyKevin]

Dog fight with Hubert Davis team

Bad

At least it's a fight

 

[fisherscatfan]

Pope did a piss poor job putting this team together. I don't see how some can even debate it.

It sure is looking that way. Better get Lowe and JQ asap.

 

[RunninRichie]

We need somebody with a mean streak. Diabate should be that guy but apparently has the ankle strength of a baby giraffe.

I believe, he has quit.

 

[bbnkat02]

We've got a UK fan as FB HC.

Hell yeah.

 

[Eastkybball]

We’re so fd this year.
Than you got mr nice guy over there as our coach who won’t say an ill word to nobody. These refs are gambling it up tonight and Popes just walking around with that stupid *** face.

 

[chasingwildcat]

Kam needs to find his shooting

His D is good

But his three point shooting is really really bad

 

[RunninRichie]

We've got a UK fan as FB HC.

Hell yeah.

Really excited for UK football. Board of trustees may be doing another search, soon.

 

[chasingwildcat]

Can will stein coach our offense
