JJ needs better Defense, but his high ceiling offensive potential right now out weighs that. JJ needs more playing time

 

[BlueBlood96Cat]

Chandler for threeeee

 

[fisherscatfan]

Cats just never ready to match the opponent’s intensity. Not sure what it’s going to take to get that figured out.

 

[Seth_C]

Playing pretty good (relatively speaking), but still down. Not sure how to feel about that.

Based on previous games, if we can keep the lead to 8 or less in the first half we have a chance.

 

[Farsight Clone]

Can JJ channel Jodie Meeks

Anybody that disagrees at this point… I will respectfully have to disagree with them

 

[NociHTTP]

Gipissme's hair is giving me bad flashbacks to Speeler.

[Kantucke_rivals]

[MidseasonTweak]

JJ could have a legacy game today

 

[BlueBlood96Cat]

Collin said get that **** out of here

 

[RunninRichie]

I ******* hate Tennessee

 

[Kantucke_rivals]

Pope threw Jasper to the wolves but he's responding

 

[katwest]

I’ll wait before I worry about it.

Never fails.. opponents shoot lights out from the 3. Doesn't matter if its Cal or Pope, elite freshman or experienced guys.. whether we are a defensive team or an offensive team.

 

[BlueBlood96Cat]

Man anybody want to bail me out of jail? I’m about to do the stone cold stunner on these ****** refs

 

[Tri-Countycat]

Our guards might be better than UT, but their bigs are making ours look like babies.

 

[Eastkybball]

Walks, double dribbles, fouls, we are getting a terrible whistle so far and Marcus pope just claps.

 

[Vek96]

Vols have gotten away with 4 walks.

 

[ala_kat2]

UT has locked down Oweh so far. JJ has been our bright spot ( on offense).

JQ is glad he opted out

Their bigs are working us and Ament hasn’t gotten going yet

Big babies lol

 

[theBlues]

UK hasn't played bad defense so far; UT just got hot.

 

[BlueBlood96Cat]

They will get away with anything if they get away wearing that musty orange

 

[bbnkat02]

ugh. Lost track of time and forgot when tipoff was.

 

[Zuma75]

Cats just never ready to match the opponent’s intensity. Not sure what it’s going to take to get that figured out.

I thought this was our game plan - lull the opponent into false confidence by spotting a big lead, then hang 50 on ‘em in the second half.

 

[chattanogawildcat]

I sure wish we got this whistle at home.

 

[Farsight Clone]

Vols have gotten away with 4 walks.

And 5 fouls at least

Better grit and talent at the 4.

 

[Tri-Countycat]

I like the fact that when we have an open 3, we are shooting the ball. We aren’t playing tight. But we gotta crash the boards our it’s gonna get ugly.

 

[UKWildcats1987]

Never fails.. opponents shoot lights out from the 3. Doesn't matter if its Cal or Pope, elite freshman or experienced guys.. whether we are a defensive team or an offensive team.

I mean we have hit 4 already too. Both teams lighting it up.

I'm actually impressed with UKs offense today.

 

[fisherscatfan]

I hate the defensive position our guys take in the post. Get pinned on the hip far too easily leaving a not too difficult entry pass and path to the bucket.

I’m glad someone understands. This is chess not basketball.all mental

It helps that they can literally do anything rhey want without being called for a single foul.

 

[Farsight Clone]

I sure wish we got this whistle at home.

I feel like we are the only blue blood who does NOT get home cooking

 

[TFCat11]

JQ is glad he opted out

There’s a reason his dad wanted him in college so early.

 

[Macy's socks_rivals]

Should have been starting the day he got off the canoe

Man you have some terrible takes. One three does not a season make.

 

[Tri-Countycat]

Screw job in 3.2….1
