Hang on, I wasn't whining, I felt like we left points at the free throw line. It's a consistent problem.

That isn't whining, it's the truth.
That is the difference in the game. We were out scored by 9 at the freethrow line. We shot 54% for the half and 40% from 3 with only 5 turnovers. We were equal in rebounding but should have outrebounded them. The difference in freethrow makes was the issue.

I lmao when Johnson got taken down by his shoulders on a loose ball and Kermit Davis was blasting the officials in disbelief

Ole Miss doesn’t have a guy playing over 6’7 and yet are still out rebounding us by 5
Richards could get a lot more rebounds if he didn't have hands that looked like they were shot up with Novocain right before tip-off.

Still might want to check your math. Or just argue about it. Whatever.
My goodness man, you just love to comb the board looking for inaccuracies to call people out on don't you?

Jeez man, I didn't do any freaking math, I threw a number out there that I thought was about right. I never claimed it as fact.

I literally said "we probably left 8 points at the free throw line".

Now, you tell me captain insaino, where did I say there was definitely 8 points left at the ft line?

In your haste to be Mr. Perfect, you forgot to see reality.

Missed free throws from a big is one thing.. But from a guard-forward? You would expect KJ to be a bit better there.. Not just this game.

But let's not overdo it. Kentucky would be down by 10 if not for KJ.

I swear we aren't allowed to play with the same defensive tenacity as other teams. On KJs last shot he was hammered. Guarantee that's a foul on us.

I'm no "basketball bennie," so what would you guys do?

Many criticize Cal for lack of in-game adjustments.

If you were Cal, what tactical change would you make at the half of this game to change it to our favor? (Other than the obvious: play PJ more)

Precisely, but I'm not going to let someone call me a whiner because I said we PROBABLY left 8 points at the free throw line.

These guys miss a lot of free throws every game and today is no different. It will cost them a game in the tournament if they don't get it fixed.

It's too bad Ulis was wasted on one of the worst Kentucky teams. Man if he had a true post player and not ho-hum poythress as our experience..
Ever??? They went 27-9, tied for the 2016 SEC Regular Season Championship and won the 2016 SEC Tournament when he was a soph. In all, 65-10 in 2 years. Dude was a winner!

It was an odd thing to say, and wasn’t close to right. In fact, a big problem was that we were outshot by 8 free throws.

But yeah, I comb the board looking for you to say something stupid. Rough work, let me tell ya.

Can’t play PJ more when he can’t breath on his man and picks up two quick ones

I always enjoy the sports clips commercials. A bunch of bros sitting around getting their hair cut with a bunch of chicks while watching sports and pay 25 bucks to get your hair cut. I’m sorry if you go their

I'll give Jimmy credit for that..Hagans and Quickley looked lost and 5 steps too slow on that play. Yikes.

I think Jimmy usually knows what he's talking about. Has his standard catchphrases that get a little tiresome but makes some good observations.
