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

[hotelblue]

You have to be glued to Ivisiic. Suffocate his ***

his height makes it hard. our guy was right there. at least get him off the top of the key and cut off the passing lane. he’s shown he will not miss that shot, contested or not.

 

[UKDC80]

Switch the PNR. Don’t let IV get off that 3.

 

[EliteBlue]

The way this defense has improved the last 10 games has been so encouraging for the Pope era. And for this team's chances!

Especially once we have a higher total team athleticism

 

[Crawfords Corner]

UK wins the first 4 minute segment of the 2nd half 16-7

UK 53
Ill 39

 

[BBNWildcats4life]

Whoever taught Williams how to dunk during halftime deserves a raise

 

[Bkocats]

Yay. Amari dunked…TWICE

 

[Kycatspaws]

The Cats are rolling now. Keep on rolling Cats!

 

[LmdCat]

Seems to me like Carr is playing fine , he hasn’t had offensive opportunities. Butler is taking more shots , garrison sure Hell isn’t shy , he just hasn’t got his number called much

Lol, Garrison has never seen a shot he doesn't believe he can't make.

 

[MbergCat]

BTA boys

 

[TheBlueMist]

A LOT of time left. My blood pressure would appreciate a 25-point lead.....please.

 

[fredmanthecatfan]

Let’s run something good out of the TO and add to this lead.

 

[drew_ukfan_rivals]

take care of the ball and play smart. They may make a run but play smart and we can weather it

 

[NoahColeLiam2024!]

We have to keep up the intensity. Don’t let up boys. Lots of time left.

 

[BMR1987]

It really is amazing, when the officials aren't screwing us, we go on big runs. I've seen it all year. And when those fouls come in, we naturally lose our composer, lose flow and confidence, and let the team come back

If they get us in foul trouble, I say KEEP OUR GUYS IN at this point. Make them foul us out. Make them own it and have to explain it. Do not let up at all!

That’s the KY Basketball we all love. Reminds me of the Duke game this season we are playing lights out

 

[bbnkat02]

Oweh is automatic there. Wow.

 

[GLR5555]

No Cal stall ball. Put ur foot all the way up that arse.

 

[TucsonCat]

Oweh making up for lost time

 

[Oboro95]

The way this defense has improved the last 10 games has been so encouraging for the Pope era. And for this team's chances!

Absolutely. Few among the media seem to have noticed, though ...

 

[Shaudylo]

sky’s the limit if we get this Amari

 

[Seth_C]

Can’t give these refs any excuse or they will call all the ******** context that will 100% be ignored on the other end.

 

[hotelblue]

Amari can jump and dunk. Thats what makes me so mad when I see him play weak. It’s all about effort with him.

he can jump on the run. not sure standing still. he is, laterally, pretty athletic. vertically not as much.

 

[bbnkat02]

uh huh....sure ref. sure.

 

[mash_24]

Just keep making the right play. no let ups.

 

[DaDirtyLeb69]

Amari if you’re gonna foul him, foul him man. Don’t let him get the shot off

 

[MbergCat]

Amari, If you're gonna foul, foul.

 

[LmdCat]

If you are going to foul him, you should at least put your darn hand up to knock the ball down.

 

[TriCountyCAT]

I guess Amari fouled him with his back

 

[Crawfords Corner]

MAKE HIM SHOOT IT

 

[anon1751545683]

Who is this team playing defense??

 

[FiveStarCat]

wtf was that Amari

 

[Runt#1969]

:eyes:

 

[sefus12]

Idiotic foul by Amari. And he turns his back to the guy to give him a free lay up.

 

[KyLegacyBBN]

Amari huh. Block that maybe?

 

[LineSkiCat14]

Illini with 0 fouls still lol

 

[NociHTTP]

Instead of Amari moving over and putting up his hands to defend under the basket, he throws his hip into the guy.

 

[hotelblue]

i hate that call. it happens so much. williams is retreating to the rim and the guy just lunges into him.

 

[*CatinIL*]

Nice floater
