****** OFFICIAL NCAAT Troy Vs Kentucky Game Thread *****

[Son_Of_Saul]

Knowing that North Carolina, Louisville and Kansas are already eliminated is a beautiful feeling.

Now to finish off Connecticut and Duke.

 

[bbnkat02]

I swear to all that is holy, Mark Pope if you play stall ball I am driving to Milwaukee and kicking your ***. You're too damn good of a coach to do that ****.

 

[GLR5555]

The Blantons is starting to go down smoother.

Old Forrester for me. I'm numb.

 

[ala_kat2]

What the heck was that, Perry? There was no one within 10 feet. How are you going to miss it that bad?

He’s in there to take that shot. He will hit the next one,

 

[LmdCat]

This team lacks situational awareness. Throwing up a bunch 3s and missing them will only increase the number of shots available to Troy to possibly come back. I am not sure what game plan was attempted tonight.

 

[killaCk]

I’ve never seen commentators giving so much credit to a team down 17 in my entire life haha

I've struggled with announcers all year. Thank you Tom Leach and Goose!

 

[IYAOYAS1]

Butler 0 points and 2 assists

 

[ImTheVillageIdiot]

We don’t practice free throws or play zone thats the Ky way

Is this a joke? They literally had a public open practice showing them practicing FTs two days ago. If you want to hate fine, but at least be honest

 

[darkshadesofblue]

A lot of time left, this game is not over. Need to cut back on the turnovers and bad shot selection

 

[chasingwildcat]

This Troy team is the worst team I've ever watched in the tournament.
EVER!

You forget Clemson

 

[Runt#1969]

Got to keep playing guys and quit with the careless turnovers!

yep

 

[sefus12]

Then perchance he should stop dribbling into the paint, turning 14 times, and heaving the all into the bottom of the backboard?

I love Butler, but the guy is the equivalent of an 8th grade PG on a middle school girls team when it comes to making shots at the rim.

I kid, mostly.

 

[TheWyldKat_rivals45219]

Yeah he's not the shooter I expected him to be.
Good, not great

Would rather see Noah in

 

[wldktz1]

Amari seems to try and make a defensive play as long as it’s not going to put him out any. If it takes any effort he’s like screw it.

Getting whistled for phantom fouls in the SEC will do that to you.

 

[fatguy87]

It's not his offense we need. He's been solid on defense. Be happy to have that/him out there

He makes a difference with ball handling too. 20 plus minutes from him is better handling than 20 additional from Chandler/Perry.

 

[ck-2]

This team lacks basketball IQ and determined hustle.

 

[BigRickWithTheBig___Suv]

hit the open shots

hit the free throws

win the game

we have many issues with that

 

[Runt#1969]

I swear to all that is holy, Mark Pope if you play stall ball I am driving to Milwaukee and kicking your ***. You're too damn good of a coach to do that ****.

for real

make the open shots

hit the free throws

win the damn game

 

[DaDirtyLeb69]

Alright Kentucky wake up, yall are going through the motions

 

[Son_Of_Saul]

He’s getting married in May. Does she come here….or does he go home….

A true Mormon woman will submit to her man. If he wants to stay in Lexington, they will live in Kentucky. Mormon women are not modern, and thank God for that.

 

[katwest]

Tonight there has been some weird stuff, Butler and Amari have been sub par. Noah shot an air ball and Perry shot the worst looking dead ball I’ve ever seen. We need to survive and advance, that’s all you can say about this game.

 

[TheWyldKat_rivals45219]

Time to jog around like were too cool for school.

Yes I just said same thing

 

[hotelblue]

troy was too excited and forced too much. i’d have just had them take there time and penetrate when the match was right are off a screen. if they took their time they’d be right in this game.

 

[Runt#1969]

we have many issues with that

true, dat

 

[Seth_C]

We are about to make this game close purely by playing like idiots. Again.

 

[pauled#1]

Here goes a 22 point lead

 

[GLR5555]

Bro thought he was Bird.

 

[deebert]

Just like clockwork, we're giving the game away.

 

[wardlow]

I love Butler, but the guy is the equivalent of an 8th grade PG on a middle school girls team when it comes to making shots at the rim.

I kid, mostly.

The whole team is tonight. It’s so frustrating to watch high level athletes brick shot after shot within 2 ft

 

[bbnkat02]

This team is insanely lazy at times. They're playing to win. We're trying to survive.

 

[NoahColeLiam2024!]

They are gaining momentum.

 

[chasingwildcat]

From 21 points lead to 15/14...

 

[DaDirtyLeb69]

Up 22 and started dicking around

 

[Digger-Cat]

We just continue to hand them the ball while doing stupid crap

 

[RoyKent]

We have quit playing. Go up 22 and just play like morons

 

[IYAOYAS1]

Every damn game we allow teams to get back in the game. We had a 20 point lead

 

[TriCountyCAT]

We’ve quit and still six minutes left

 

[fatguy87]

This game isn't over because we missed 5 open layups in the first half and early second half.

 

[hotelblue]

carr’s first miss, a layup, compounded by the and 1. be strong guys, end this right.

 

[DaDirtyLeb69]

This is pathetic. Butler is out there doing stupid *** behind the back passes. This team is just so damn organized and lazy.
