Yeah...when they were down 20 or so I fell down the steps...[laughing]
See, I don't need Cal to point that stuff out to me. I've been talking about the guy defensively for a while now. Before Cal, actually. Fox is out there limping around. I don't see how you are missing that, but that's your view. He looks like it's bad enough for him to not be out there. We'll see in a bit. A bad defender is gonna be even worse if he's half speed.
Was Mulder the guy who Cal said got 3s scored on him 4 times? Only thing I can think of why he got yanked.
I would not under any circumstance let Fox back in this game. he ain't ready to play and I am not sure if it is the bruise or just he wasn't ready mentally but leaving 4 guys open for 3's all of which go in is unquestionably unexceptable. Hawkins is playing great D and Briscoe can run the point like he is.
I really really really do not want to lose this game tonight. I will be sick for the rest of the week and I do not want to be sick for the rest of the week.
Just standing would have been bad then. Being on the steps would be a death wish!!
whoah dude
@LineSkiCat14 is a good guy, he's just incredibly frustrated with this team, as many are.
If we didn't know they were much better than this, we wouldn't get so upset.
We all still love our Cats
Agree.Fox is limping around and it's obvious he's not ready.
Fox. Terrible D. Said leg is not an issue so typical Fox defense.
I agree he has taken some stupid shots tonight and all year really. Wish he would be smarter and allow things to progress offensively more often. I think that is one of the hardest Things for the really elite HS scorers to adapt to in big time college ball. Allowing the game to come to them.
But, we are more reliant upon him than any single player that I can remember. UK goes as Monk goes. He def has the shooters shooters mentality tho. No shot is a bad shot. Wish he didn't take it quite so literally. I just think if he don't get going UK is not gonna pull this out. Hope I am wrong.
Maybe just maybe they get this crap out of their system and hit on all cylinders the rest of the year.
I think we win the game.. But im not backing off my statement. You play like that for a half in the tournament and there's a good chance you go home.
Who has grown, really, aside frim Bam. Thats a problem.
I've always said, i dont care if you play bad or miss shots or make mistakes. Just put the effort in, listen to the coaches, progress.
It's March, don't really like what I see.

Vandy hit shots the first 12 minutes or so but that half was about UK playing horrible not about Vandy playing great. I still worry that UK might get down by double digits again. So far, it just feels like a "cut into the lead but never get over the hump because of self inflicted mistakes" type of night..aka the UConn NCAA Tournament games. I hope I'm wrong.
he did....clearly played the best on the team...
and i made fun of his airball, which was terrible.
When you play at Kentucky you're supposed to be impervious to pain I guess. Contusions can be very limiting. I know, a bruise doesn't sound bad, but they sure as heck can be tough to maneuver around with.
It's not a limp. That's a normal gait for a guy whose head is in his ***.
I liked how Hawkins finally ran over the Vandy screener on the last play...they've been sliding over late and throwing a hip check on every screen tonight without a call.
I like us trapping their small guards with Willis. Hope we keep coming at them. We should trap them off the pick and roll action to create more chaos... if we play straight up they've shown the will just out shoot and executing us.

I always hear about teams living and dying by the 3
Vandy shoots almost 50% of their shots from 3.
They truly live and die by it.

It's senior night, we're at home, we've had all season to figure some easy things out.. Vandy has 13 losses.. That should be an alarm.
That's funny no matter who you root for. I only chuckled since he's a UK guy. Any other team I'd be belly laughing.
he did. He kind of made the three that calmed us down. Which was nice.
He got open three from Briscoe, and open 3 that he drove in for 2. That's his 5 points. No rebound, or assist.
"Good dudes" don't post the things he's posting (kiss draft stock goodbye, wont beat a 16 seed, monk sucks, etc). If he IS a good dude and these post are out the norm due to frustration
, then as I said, he needs to step away from the computer til his tantrum is over.
Cals got to do something to change this new habit of starting slow ,needs to motivate these guys pre-game ,while I never felt they wouldn't comeback and win this game,like everybody said do this crap in the post season and it will be season over.
I just don't understand what the hell happened to this team,they looked like world beaters offensively until mid-January,started trying to play better defense and the offense has went to hell
