*OFFICIAL GAME THREAD*

[UKWildcats#8]

Worst half of the season. Lucky to be down just 8

 

[ala_kat2]

Need to get Monk going the second half. What is he, scoreless so far?

 

[ukfan693]

Lucky to be down 8. Save us again, Malik.

 

[Catfan in Tn.]

Down 8. Could have been worse.

 

[OldRed]

Saw Orlando Antiqua behind the bench of Kentucky.

 

[Blue_2_the_bone_rivals]

We've played really bad and only down 8. Could have been way worse.

 

[wildcatwelder_rivals]

Down 8 with the way we played? I'll take it. NO WAY they hold Monk scoreless for TWO halves......right?

 

[usinfantrycat85]

Sorry if been posted but did anyone else see Orlando setting being cal

 

[John Henry]

Did Monk score in the first half

 

[ala_kat2]

Mulder was wide open from 3, but Fox waited too long.

 

[MojoYamamoto]

At least we cut it to single digits. Have to play a better second half. Have to get Monk involved. Have to rebound better.

 

[rick64]

FL flat out wants it more.

 

[ORCAT10]

Lucky to be down by just 8. Going to win this game.

 

[Ugoff]

Just because we're miserable doesn't mean they have to be.

Be nice if they'd call the game though. Won't even tell us who fouls are on.

 

[NavyKat]

Mulder was wide open for 68 seconds just then and doesn't get the ball

Fox is a ball hog for a PG.

 

[BassProCat]

Def in striking distances boys! Just need some shots to fall and get a couple calls in our advantage

 

[clew84]

26 points and -18 rebounding differential. And people are blaming the refs...

Still, ONLY DOWN 8. That's kind of amazing.

 

[JasonS.]

I just noticed Arkansas lost to Missouri.

How does one lose to Missouri?

 

[HenryMuto]

What a FN fiacol that 1st half was. 26 pts.......26 freaking pts. This team does not have enough talent. I said 10% chance to win a championship because I think we are 1 of 10 teams that can win it all about equal chance. It's like a freaking roll of the dice though on how good any of those 10 teams are going to play on a given day.

 

[CatsRWild]

Bam is one of the worst big man rim protectors we've ever had.

Cal teaching our big's to just stand flat footed and put there hands up, still gets in foul trouble...no one jumps and challenges any more...but in my opinion the aggressor gets the calls, always.

We play passive back on our heals then act surprised we get no calls, out rebounded and out hustled.

 

[ck-2]

Wrong guys shooting, guys taking bad shots. No accountability. Game after game. All on Cal.

 

[Wall2Boogie]

haha nahhh

i wanted to get steal the Game thread from @Wall2Boogie first, but you beat me to it. I'm just jealous and hatin'.

hahaha

lol I have been doing them since 2012 lol due to OCD and fear I'll let us down if we lose and don't start the thread lol. It's the fan in me lol

 

[kydmb99_rivals103809]

I can't believe a team is going to spend a first round draft pick on Adebayo. A guy whose only appreciable basketball skill is dunking it hard

 

[KYCAT78]

I know Kentucky has a lot of dumb redneck fans but surely you are intelligent enough to learn the players' names whether they stay one or four seasons.

And you sure are smart enough to recognize sarcasm.

 

[fisherscat]

Fox is really fast. Right now it appears to be the only thing he does well.

 

[jrpross_rivals]

Shot 30%, outrebounded by 18, and 3 team assists. The fact we're only down 8 is downright miraculous.

 

[JerseyCat84_rivals57050]

Saw Orlando Ant..... oh wait he's been spotted 500 times so far.

 

[BoneToPick]

Monk with 0. 18 rebound difference. We're fortunate to be down only 8. We can make it a game.

 

[StubbornPenny]

Absolute miracle to be down by only 8. Hopefully Florida was just hyped due to game day and they'll tire in the second half. Monk with ZERO, wow, never thought I'd see that.

 

[caneintally]

twilight zone time - we are playing amazing D and horrible O and not rebounding and we are best offense in the SEC and the 2nd best rebounding team in the league and UF like 6th I believe . But I like where we are we couldn't of played worse and only down 8. I think Monk obviously needs to get open and make at least 10-14 pts in the 2nd half for us to win .

 

[Kats23]

Well that half was something...hoping for better results in the 2nd half

 

[Pulaski Cat Fan_rivals377587]

But they are young

Fox lucky that's not foul #3...had Mulder wide open a lot sooner.

Fox isn't a pure point IMO. Its laughable to compare him with Wall.

 

[Randy Bob]

Other than Fox this team is so slow, on defense and going after lose balls, big men cannot get a rebound ..

 

[KyFord]

Kentucky is going to win this game

 

[stoneycat_20]

Worst, ugliest half I've seen them play going back to BCG. The team doesn't appear to be getting better.It's now Feb Cal

 

[KyFaninNC]

Do not worry, we are young, we will be better in February.........................................Oh, wait, it is February.

 

[ala_kat2]

This team would be SO MUCH better if Ulis was running point. Fox is too much AAU me, me, me, me, me ball.

 

[Burly]

Monk no points no rebounds

 

[Ineverplayedthegame]

Saw Orlando Ant..... oh wait he's been spotted 500 times so far.

I heard that he was at the game.

 

[Reber3]

Bam is not a go to big. Let him clean up and that's it. Can't post, no offensives moves, can't rebound and can't block shots.
