Good morning folks. Another important win for the Kardiac Kats.
Kam Williams will be missed. No denying that. He still hadn’t found his ceiling at Kentucky and was an excellent potential factor in this team reaching a higher altitude.
But that’s part of life. Trent Noah now is going to have to reach deep, especially with the mental part of the game. He has to be flawless with his footwork and energy on the defensive end. He’s not athletic but he can compensate enough to be a competent defensive player if he works at it. On the offensive end, just keep proper spacing and hit the open shot a decent percentage of the time. I looked at Kam’s stats closely. Throw out the Bellarmine game of 26 points against an uncompetitive team and he was averaging just under six points a game. He got two against Tennessee and I think four against LSU to cite recent games. Noah should be able to replace much of his output in as many minutes, and he’s a better rebounder. He just has to get positioning on defense enough to make his man take tough shots to score. Thats doable.
Getting off the subway. You all have a good day.
