UK vs Vanderbilt Game Thread

[tls]

Good win tonight.

 

[ganner918_rivals60369]

Double double for Toppin. Done a good job rebounding tonight as Vandy focuses on blocking out Oscar.

 

[HerrosHeroes]

Is Wallace hurt? He hasnt played in 5-6 minutes after drawing that tough block.

 

[mhroe1984]

Stackhouse 'bout to be 0-8 against Kentucky.

 

[Lazlo7]

OMG touch fouls on us and they get away with shoves and pushes - absolutely insane

 

[MbergCat]

Does he start the next game?

No.

 

[megablue]

the announcer praising Wheeler by saying "they haven't lost the lead with him on the court"

He means they have EXTENDED it ... !!

 

[MidseasonTweak]

Is Wallace hurt?

Rest

 

[bbnkat02]

Wallace getting rest this half or having cramps not for sure.

Hopefully rest. We don't need him right now.

 

[LineSkiCat14]

Wheeler could be a total difference maker playing 2nd unit guys with out all the pressure. As a lead guard? Not great. But playing a teams 6th and 7th guys at the break? Much different.

 

[J-Ryan]

Stackhouse is a wizard. He is so good at teaching his guys how not to foul. Hire him

 

[HenryMuto]

When was the last time Kentucky only had 2 FT's in a game ?

 

[HerrosHeroes]

Good win tonight.

4 straight

 

[Midway Cat]

Good thing we played well in this one.

Wheeler was just fouled three or four times on that last possession. No call.

Meanwhile, Vandy has five fouls total for the game.

 

[jameslee32]

Cats at their best when Toppin, Fred and Wheeler playing well.

 

[Aike]

These refs are something else. We are messing with their money tonight

It's good to keep Wheeler out there right now in a game that's locked up. Need to keep him engaged. We WILL need him in March.

 

[pauled#1]

2nd Vandy foul in 16 mins.

They must play perfect defense! lol

 

[DaDirtyLeb69]

Did wheeler foul there, because it looked like a illegal screen from mallora-brown

 

[ganner918_rivals60369]

5 guys in double figures scoring tonight. We ran a very efficient, very balanced offense.

 

[UKortho]

Has Vandy missed a FT tonight?

They haven’t missed one in 5 years lol.

 

[katwest]

Vandy with the hands on defense out front, we are not allowed.

 

[DaDirtyLeb69]

Wheeler give Kentucky this energy for 12 minutes a night and is in control and that helps Kentucky out so much

 

[SophiesDad]

We’ve shot 2 free throws tonight. Pathetic job by the zebras

 

[kywildcat1021979]

No.

I sure hope not but the way the announcers are pimping him word will get back to Cal and I’m afraid he’ll go back to starting him again.

 

[BCD]

Okay, okay wheeler reminds of Kevin Hart. Maybe it’s the Elijah Craig. Idk

 

[Crawfords Corner]

59.6% FG

Getting rest.

Vandy with the hands on defense out front, we are not allowed.

For real. They are hanging all over our guys and there's no whistle. We blow on them and they go to the line.

 

[Comebakatz3]

I like Dane Bradshaw. I don't say that about many Vols.

 

[UKortho]

Wish Thiero would get some minutes here.

 

[richbrookstomato]

Hey Wheeler, getting your defender to over guard you so you can drive to score or pass is YOUR GAME!!!

Keep doing it and all of us will LOVE your game!!

Keep shooting Jumpers, try to do too much, turn it over and allow your man to straightline drive to the basket and it makes it EXTREMELY HARD to even like your game.

 

[bbnkat02]

And that was our ball. These refs suck.

 

[kywildcat1021979]

59.6% FG

Impressive

 

[DaDirtyLeb69]

If it wasn’t for 2 guys tripling their averages per game Kentucky would have the walk ons in

 

[Crawfords Corner]

This is the Wheeler we need. Not the guy who was averaging 38 minutes a game for 5 games.

 

[HenryMuto]

I would like to see that replay did not see it go off Toppin

 

[BBUK_anon]

OT: T&O playing the twins game from the looks of the stats. Not a bad thing if T can keep it up going forward...(Unable to watch the game but am keeping up with the stats...)

 

[RoyKent]

These refs blow ***

 

[LineSkiCat14]

Expect vandy to pickup 3 or 4 weird fouls in the last minute.. you know, gotta cover up the tracks.
