***** Official Georgetown Vs UK Game Thread *****

[*Fox2Monk*]

I thought the days of getting punked were over. Got our shoved in. Soft. Pisses me off to lose much less just get out hustled.

They didn’t give two ***** about this game. It was obvious all night. Plus we ran no offense. No passing, Chandler is out here just like I’ll shoot whenever. Disappointing, but I still ain’t worried really. Let’s see real action with some guards.

 

[bbnkat02]

Whelp.

That sucked ***.


Final From Rupp

Cats 70
Hoyas 84


Now to get settled for WORK tomorrow. Thursday night games suck.

Chandler nor Johnson can be our point guard. Chandler is too slow and has a weak handle and Johnson is too green and should be a bench player at the 2 guard.

 

[UKDC80]

Do people really think Chandler should see the floor ever? He has zero fluidity or game. I’m sorry! I’m not sure what anyone sees in his game.

 

[*Fox2Monk*]

Well, we know Noah isn’t going to play much. Guy can’t guard. Literally just clear the floor and burn him every time down court.

Yeah, gonna have to put him in a zone or make sure he has help. That was rough watching him get Reed Sheppard clear outs trip after trip.

 

[BlueBlood96Cat]

Kam has to find his stroke if he wants to play. Yikes.

Yea shot looks rough. Hope he turns out to be what we thought.

Agreed. He's probably going to be deep on the bench the further the season goes. Especially when JQ returns.

 

[OliverSimmonsTwinBrother]

I did a charge back on my final four tickets

 

[DelkBowl]

Was at the game tonight. Here’s what I saw.

pick and roll defense was not good
Otega is not a good shooter
Johnson was forcing most of the time
Offense was predictable and easy to guard
Inbound plays were from Cal’s playbook
Mountain momba is like a free spot on a bingo board on defense
Jelly needs to get more involved
MM is good
Garrison wasn’t terrible
Chandler is hit or miss
Coaching was sub par tonight. Cooley clearly was more prepared and his offense was way past ours.
Mo should never shoot outside the lane
Getting heathy would help
Oh and Kam isn’t even trying. Playing like he’s 5’6”

 

[Artlaibesghost]

gotta endure 3 more years of pope and we can get this thing back on track again hopefully

Do you know the definition of the word " putz". You should definitely look it up.

Not a damn one of those dudes better be goofing of between now and Tuesday.

 

[*Fox2Monk*]

Everybody is having a tough game but Chandler is really struggling. IMO

Yeah PG is not his thing. Like he can’t run the offense at all. Pope would be wise to let JJ be the emergency PG when Lowe/Aberdeen are good to go.

 

[darkshadesofblue]

I’m not going to panic about this game. GTown obviously watched our Purdue game and came in fired up. We treated this game like an exhibition and it showed. Purdue looked disinterested for much of the game last week. It just goes to show that these exhibition games truly mean nothing. A lot to get excited about when you win but it should be taken with a grain of salt. Not the same energy on display

 

[TheBlueMist]

This exhibition will put a cloud over the program until we can redeem ourselves at Louisville. Hopefully it got our guys' attentions away from the click-bait headlines claiming we are the best and deepest team in the nation. We have work to do. I trust our coach will get it done.

 

[loublue22_rivals308424]

Hopefully Lowe can be a true triple threat offensively, meaning a guy who can comfortably create and make his own jumper + finish at the rim. Seems like Kentucky is always trying to piece it together with guys who can't do it all, and there's no need.

 

[BlueBlood96Cat]

Looks like one of those fitness athletes that do the long distance spartan stuff trying to play basketball. Or a football player trying to play basketball.

 

[Big BlueBeard]

Missed a real PG tonight. This should show everyone what will happen if we rely too much on Chandler. Role player at best.

I'm trying really had not to dislike Trent Noah....but he's making it difficult.

 

[*Fox2Monk*]

It’s really killing me thinking he’s our “best athlete “

He is a good athlete, but he’s not a PG. He’s a SF roleplaying a PG and it’s not working.

 

[chroix]

Chandler got exposed. Jasper looked like a normal skinny freshman. Garrison looks the same. Oweh looks to be about 80%. Time to get Lowe and JQ and the rest of them healthy.

 

[BlueBlood96Cat]

If we would just overpay for a couple guys. Just a couple superstars that would do that. I kid I kid

 

[*Fox2Monk*]

Kam has to find his stroke if he wants to play. Yikes.

He looks lost out there. Just awful looking shots. Not impressed with him at all yet.

 

[BlueBlood96Cat]

He’s a outside linebacker trying to play

 

[Big BlueBeard]

He should get spot minutes. Cannot rely on him with the ball in his hands. Plus he can’t shoot well and gets punked on D way too much.

 

[MidseasonTweak]

We are going to be fine. This loss will refocus the team if anything

 

[loublue22_rivals308424]

Williams, Chandler, Noah, these are guys who it looks like all they bring is the ability to hit an open shot created by someone else. That is not a key to success for your wing players.

 

[bbnkat02]

That was the problem last year. Win a big game- then turn into dumbass. I would've thought Pope would've fixed that crap.

we chose this kid over mgbako and jarron pierre....

 

[JwUKFan11]

Kam is not a UK level player. He'll have a game or 2 where he plays well, but so did Dontaie Allen. Hopefully once we are healthy he's the 10-11th guy.

 

[chattanogawildcat]

Ckow

gotta endure 3 more years of pope and we can get this thing back on track again hopefully

N

but we have experienced guys who wanna play for uk!!!

Then why is he here? When we signed him people were saying he had first round potential, I don't see that at all. Talent evaluation has been an issue for a while, I hope that isn't carrying over from Cal to Pope.

We wil get our guys. It’s a privilege to play here

 

[bbnkat02]

Fire the operator while we are at it. Missed on everything possible tonight.

 

[BigBlueGuru]

What’s fascinating is there are actually trolls with so little of a life, they come to a UK board to troll a scrimmage game.

You can spin this anyway you want but we have no offense. None. Oweh is not the SEC player of the year. The Purdue game was an anomily as if they didnt shoot so bad we lose. When can we have a team that hits free throws. Our defense was horrid. We supposedly hit the portal to improve our defense but oh my goodness. Georgetown hit everything within the 3 point line. Took our players off the drive multiple times. If this is the most expensive NIL team in the NCAA this is ridiculous. I seriously hope I am overreacting.

 

[bbnkat02]

Yep, they'll becoming out of the woodwork for a bit. Including the other one that wont shut up.

 

[mash_24]

I think we should wait until we can evaluate every guy in what will be their true position and role with the team before we declare it a lost season. We played a scrimmage against a team that clearly wanted it bad without three of our most important pieces tonight.

hate that its gonna be another situation like last year where our team lacks talent, but has the coaching, which it could be both

Na we don’t gotta prove we are real UK fans for calling it what it is. I don’t got much good to say about the scrimmage.
