BJ Boston tweet
- Thread starter RunninRichie
- Start date
Spoken like a man who will be a millionaire in about 5 months. He truly doesn’t need sympathy. Hope he breaks through this year, and I appreciate him not trying to make excuses.
Good deal. None here anyway. Thanks.
No, you need to re-read the tweet. It is self affirmation!
Kids hearing themselves attacked from their own supposed fan base. Proud day.
is it still considered 'cool' to talk in broken english?
Then stop reading this board. Jesus, it’s simple
I’m really amazed (and I shouldn’t be) at the toxicity in this thread.
Apparently, there are more than a few Kentucky fans that I hate.

saw it on the hose of blue used twitter browser (no account) and went to his account to copy link to tweet.
I’ll spell it out for you
S-A-R-C-A-S-M.
I will say it is a sad moment for our fan base to criticize one of our own so much at 17/18 years old that they feel the need to respond. I hope the kid turns it on big time and shuts down the detractors.
Just as cool as not capitalizing the first word of a sentence. If you're going to critique someone's writing, yours better be perfect.
Cal is to blame. Too long of a leash allowing Boston to take horrible shot after horrible shot with no consequences. All the while playing tons of minutes.
This would never happen if we didn’t rely on freshman every year.
As Cal says “I can’t hide you” and he didn’t try with BJ. Hopefully he pulls out of it, but maybe he should concentrate on defense and passing to wide open teammates. Don’t see people get booed for that.

Anyone else miss the days when there was no Facebook or Twitter?
I do.
I do.
Nice job spelling. Anything else you are good at? These 5 stars should stay off social media and focus on helping UK. My opinion of course. UK is an afterthought these days. Prove it on the court or shut up.
You don’t have to splain yourself bro.
They really don’t understand this. The fans will singlehandedly bring this program down!
I doubt Cal ever seriously thought he'd be in this position at UK
and consequently, the cumulative effect of his system , from his definition of it, to the implementation of it, has helped create this environment where its hard for some fans to see a player like Boston as just a 19 year old kid.
They know he is marking off the days on the calendar before he can get out of here, and that started the second he set foot on campus. They also know that his contributions have not matched the hype he had coming in - and when you only have 28 or so games with him, we're 1/3 into the season with his contribution being negligible to the extent we can't have him on the floor at end of game situations. It also doesn't help that the fan base was proven right about their demands to decrease his impact on the game while increasing Dontae Allen and Cal attempted to justify Boston with an almost non-sensical defense before relenting- then admitted that Boston reverts to his AAU style of play when things don't go well.
I hate that the kid got boo'd , but this situation had been boiling for awhile.
Its hard to have the tolerance for a mercenary mentality, especially when they don't deliver early - and fans have come to believe that regardless - whether he helps the team or hurts the team, he looks to put UK in the rearview mirror after his last game here this season.
He's the alpha of the group so heavy is the crown.

He doesn't need to be babied. I'm sure he'd the first to admit that he knows he's been playing like crap.
Eh, he's going to face a lot worse critisism where he's going. If a few UK fans are going to rattle you, this world will rip your nuts off.
He seems like tough kid, he'll be aight.

His tweet hurts the virtue signalers who were "standing up for him" against the phantom boo birds ( who no one has been able to identify the intent or aim of the boos).
Yeah here’s something new. Why don’t we get behind him rather than projecting our frustrations on him.
If he and Clarke get it going then add Brooks this team could be dangerous. Team showing some life. We need some wing firepower.
We were all 18-19. Away from home and no older UK experienced teammates to help him out. It’s a game. He’s an underdog now. Help lift him up like you would your kid.

It sounds to me like he is just trying to take responsibility for his poor play.It must be frustrating for him to be struggling so much.I really do hope he can start playing better.
In essence it means he doesnt pay attention to what haters on this board say about him.
We're pulling for you BJ and know things will click soon.
I tried to listen for the boos last night for a 2nd time and still don't know where they took place at. 1st half, 2nd half, I don't know.
I heard it helps to have thick skin when facing that mean Greece media.
