Anyone thinking about passing to Edwards might as well just throw the ball in the first row so our defense can get set up.

It's like leaving your answer as: x = 2/4 on your Algebra final.

We're probably the best team in the country at falling down though. We've got that dialed the **** in...

Back to standing around on offense and one on one basketball.
Chasing on defense against a cutting, moving team isn’t going to cut it.
Well the moving, passing and uptempo offense was fun before fat *** reverted!🙄

It’s defense. It’s not OMG we changed near as much as yall wanna believe.
It's definitely both. We've been dogshit defensively all season.

But our offense is completely different with the addition of Bradshaw. Much more heavy emphasis on primary PnR to initiate the offense. We were effective when we put Tre in a PnR after a pass or two forcing the defense to move (EDIT: usually on the wing, not top of the key). That opened his pick-and-pop. Not to mention a focus on posting Bradshaw, or a high/low with Tre and Bradshaw.

Bottom line. There are at least 3-4 different ways Cal has f*cked up this offense. All of them revolve around forcing our bigs into the offense and clogging the lane.

I don't think The Clown likes Calipari.
Yeah, "I'M" the *******...

I have to go to a Holiday gathering at one of my wife's friends' house* in a couple of hours, so I woke up in a bad mood. So yeah, I'm probably being way more critical than the Kentucky team deserves

Reeves is such a good offensive player so bad at defense. He is what he is on D but many of these guys should improve drastically just hope its not end of march.

It’s his natural response. It was inevitable after Wilmington.

When we play the two bigs I want it to be:

Wagner
Reed
Reeves
Mitchell
Bradshaw
The two bigs aren’t the problem if there are three legitimate guards on the floor. Not one of cals tweeners that have stagnated our offense for years now

I'll be the first to admit that I don't know all that much about basketball, and maybe there's no statistical justification behind my opinion that we ALWAYS seem to be bad defensively (the last half decade plus anyway)

Why should that be? We've got athletic guys, why do they constantly seem to struggle with that?
