***** Official UNC VS KENTUCKY GAME THREAD *****

[Catluv]

Did anyone else think in that last minute the refs were going to call a shot clock violation on Bradshaw before the foul? I thought for sure they were going to go with that.

I don’t get not counting that shot!!

Great win. F UNC
Why is ball going to Bradshaw with 4 seconds on the clock though, something they might want to discuss in practice.

He was the one open. That’s why Reed was inbounder. Not likely to throw it away.

Now if it had been 1-1 instead of double bonus maybe he should have called timeout

That's exactly what I was thinking! I was initially worried they would call a shot clock violation but if they called the foul I thought for sure the basket should have counted.

Pretty sure the ball wasn’t out of his hands when the shot clock went off which it has to be. No continuation when shot clock is involved.

It wasn't but the foul was called before it went off. But, if you've already called the foul and the play is still going, should the basket count? Whole lot going on during that play.

The play for Mitchell was actually a great call. With just 3 seconds you have to get it to someone they’re not over-guarding. Worked out.

Has Tre hit a corner three all year? You do know you can run a screen for a guard there? The way other teams seem to do.

I still cannot believe 3 refs saw this, and then saw Ingram take 3-4 steps and not call anything

Death, Taxes, and getting reamed by refs while playing another blue blood.

Now that I think about it, they didn’t call a shooting foul because they gave him the 1-1

Raft said it was OK. No violation.

Not sure we can call a game in the 80s a rock fight. That was a heavyweight bout.

That was 2 really good teams fighting it out on a neutral court. Absolutely an Elite 8/Final Four type game tonight.

 

[*Fox2Monk*]

Best team in the ACC by far

No doubt, I think they roll the ACC this year. Duke will for sure drop some road games and probably a game or 2 at home. UNC will get them at least once but I see a sweep this year. Haven’t seen a Virgina this year but the rest of the ACC is pretty weak, now UofL maybe the worst P5 team in the country. At least top 10 of the bottom teams.

 

[*Fox2Monk*]

He trust him to get the ball in without turning it over.

Reed is definitely one of if not the best passer on the team, obviously has a high Basketball IQ, and he throws the best 3/4 court passes easily if we needed one deep.

 

[*Fox2Monk*]

337-15 now when up 10+ under Cal

That’s a great thing to look for every game. That’s a pretty damn amazing record.

 

[*Fox2Monk*]

Yes Sir, Luckily UNC is not the brightest group either

Announcers are crying

That made my night. All day I heard UNC is gonna win. Suck it Seth Davis.

 

[*Fox2Monk*]

Yes great to win. But my gosh the man is clueless in these situations. He runs an out of bounds play for a Mitchell three. And then has Reed inbounding the ball to Bradshaw to ice the game.

Like others have said Reed is one of our best passers and inbounded too thought. The Mitchell 3 wasn’t bad and actually a decent look for 2 seconds on the clock.

 

[*Fox2Monk*]

We all know the answer to that Foxy
But it won’t happen…so unless and until Calipari leaves I’m resigned

We did it BKO! The Cal curse is lifted. Here’s to a bunch of wins in a row now, especially close games.

I wish I wasn’t so skeptical about long term success
But we can hope

I feel ya but I have a lot of hope in this team. They don’t give up, they can shoot, we have big men now, and we just need to get back to passing more, and not turning it over again. We are well balanced scoring too.
