***** OFFICIAL NCAAT Illinois Vs Kentucky Game Thread *****

[FiveStarCat]

Lots of empty seats

Who gives a ****

 

[BC_Wader]

I'd like to see some pump fakes from Amari when he goes for that jump hook. Draw some contact big fella!

 

[ukwildcatwildfan]

I think Oweh wanted to dunk it, realized he couldn't and didn't adjust to the layup

 

[Cats192]

Oweh gotta dunk that!

 

[Cat in ga]

if we made all our layups we’d be unstoppable

 

[megablue]

This team is worse than an 8th grade girls team when it comes to making lay ups.

I coached 7/8th grade girls for 22 years and I agree … !!!

 

[St.PatterSoN-54-]

C’mon Amari, time to get mad and tun into the HULK

 

[bbnkat02]

New Rule: Miss A Layup, Run A Mile. That would stop that **** REEEEEAAAALLLL quick.

 

[Ugoff]

maddening

 

[fredmanthecatfan]

Gotta finish at the rim. Up 4. I like that. Let’s get better at finishing at the rim though.

 

[drew_ukfan_rivals]

I’ve seen more missed layups this tournament from all teams than I can ever remember. Is it the ball?

Lack of fundamentals

 

[Runnin'Ramel]

DUNK THE F**KING BASKETBALL MY GOD

 

[Kingslayer07]

There's been a lot of talk about the balls not being broken in and being overinflated. Shooting all around has been awful.

They are all overinflated

 

[ScottGreene22]

Do they practice layups and Chandler looks ready to thrive

 

[LmdCat]

two missed layups

 

[will1976]

So Pumped listening to Leach and Goose call the game!

 

[ukwildcatwildfan]

Lots of empty seats

Sounds like Illinois has the most fans in our pod so empty is better than overwhelmingly orange

 

[Farsight]

There's been a lot of talk about the balls not being broken in and being overinflated. Shooting all around has been awful.

Of course. They need to fix that

 

[Runnin'Ramel]

Lack of fundamentals

It’s the BS over-inflated ball. All over Twitter. Ball hits the glass harder than players are used to.

 

[DaDirtyLeb69]

Oweh legit had nothing to worry about he wasn’t getting blocked. Dunk it

 

[Big10Cat]

Layups need to become thowdowns.

 

[spincr4hire72]

Mr. obvious take, but Missed layups and free throws will be the reason if we lose

 

[Lempface]

They wire out the whistle in the Duke game

Duke shot FTs whenever they were breathed on. Man be nice to get that kind of whistle. I swear Oweh gets the fewest calls for anyone I've ever seen that drives that much.

 

[mrjuk]

Great block and STEAL

 

[permdaddy_rivals45705]

No doubt it's part of the problem but you still have to make them.

 

[ukwildcatwildfan]

There you go Amari!

 

[ManitouDan]

two missed layups

Oh basically unpressured and un guarded

 

[zannmann]

Good tip by Williams.

 

[mrjuk]

Oh man let’s gooooo bois!!

 

[Kantucke]

Good cleanup Amari

 

[Kingslayer07]

Keep up the D!!

 

[FiveStarCat]

Stay locked in boys

 

[DaDirtyLeb69]

Keep this **** up cats, Illinois plays zero defense

 

[FirewithFire]

Glad Brea showed up today.

 

[ukfan117]

Kentucky would be undefeated if they hit those layups.

Nice run

 

[chasingwildcat]

If we can win this game, we really have decent chance to EE

 

[zannmann]

Let’s gooooooooo!!!!!

 

[the dopester]

LFG!!!

 

[Farsight]

BEAT THAT *** KENTUCKY. BEAT IT HARD

 

[TomTraubertsBlues]

Love the hustle going for loose balls.
