And Oscar’s slow feet defensively absolutely exposed. Every other team that plays us should just attack him. He is not a shot blocker and it’s quite easy to go past him. And this is probably one of the reasons the NBA is not keen on the dude.UK guards got outplayed. Difference in the game.
Thanks to the rooferee sitting Fox on the bench for the entire 1st half with 2 quick cheap fouls after he had just dropped 39 on the #2 pick in the draft.They didn’t make the FF either
I wouldn't call it amazing. I would call it ignorant.It’s amazing how some on here can get down on this team so fast!![]()
you come here while UK is down double digits to say thatNow I remember why I don't check out Rafters anymore.
And that team went on to win the champions.Oh wait...Good point. Don't put too much stock in this game.
I didn’t say it was good. I didn’t care for it either. This one game doesn’t define who this team is! So many on here get their rocks off when we are having a bad game!Bruh. Nothing about that half was good. Now maybe we come out and bulldoze them. But there’s a reason I dread this game every year.
I think he meant late season losses, there's been a bunch of FF teams and title winners that lost by 20 in early season games, but it doesn’t get any more clear than UConn 2014 losing by 30 right before the tournament.2011 UK (who many have compared this team to) got taken to the woodshed by UConn in Maui
This is probably true.And Oscar’s slow feet defensively absolutely exposed. Every other team that plays us should just attack him. He is not a shot blocker and it’s quite easy to go past him. And this is probably one of the reasons the NBA is not keen on the dude.
His shooting has been bad for several games nowIt doesn’t seem lately that Washington is playing with any fire. Must be the injuries.
Mintz and Grady have the same stat line. 1/4 for 3 points, no rebounds, no assists, no steals.UK guards got outplayed. Difference in the game.
I don’t. And we are beating ourselves. THATs the kind of game I hate the most.I didn’t say it was good. I didn’t care for it either. This one game doesn’t define who this team is! So many on here get their rocks off when we are having a bad game!
That corner 3 was nice but yeah.His shooting has been bad for several games now
21-4 suggests they're not that bad. Not that bad at all.I'm aware of our record. If you don't understand that our growing tendency to go on scoring droughts is worrisome, especially when we don't seem to have any plays to get easy buckets, then I don't know what else to say.
Yeah we haven't missed any bunnies.If TN was making layups they be up 25
That’s the one problem with this team and is what worries me in March. If we can’t speed up tempo and score in transition against good teams, we’re going to struggle. We’re just not a great half court offensive team. Everyone knows it including opposing coaching staffs. We struggle getting open shots for our shooters in the half court. It’s just a fact.Barnes knows how to defend Cal’s Half court O. So if Cats aren’t in transition they struggle to score. That’s why Barnes is over 500 against Cal.
Going to have to run in 2nd half if they can.
look at the little beotch who ran and hid from the 9 win season ban evading again for the 100th time .Mental midgets
Everybody on the planet except cheat fans knows there's an asterisk on that elite 8 game.They didn’t make the FF either
I agree! It’s not you I’m talking about!I don’t. And we are beating ourselves. THATs the kind of game I hate the most.
The difference is cal gave us 4 final fours and tubby gave us one, his first year, with another coaches players, he never proved he could do it himself with his own recruitsits gonna be curious to see how people react to 10 years without a final four with Cal when it was Tubby they demanded he GTFO. oh no with Cal we will not make another final four, especially after the Anythony Davis stuff just came out, the nCAA will make sure of it.
It's OK to drop this game .. but I dont want drilled .. ran out of the buildingMan I’m as disappointed as anyone in that first half but we are playing a ranked, good team on their home court and revenge on their mind after we embarrassed them at Rupp. I would have been shocked if we walked in and beat them easily again. That is not something that typically happens with a Rick Barnes team. If we win that is an incredible win but it’s not that much to be ashamed of to lose this game.
The big difference in the UT offense is that they turned it over a bunch in Rupp. That kept them from being crazy good that day.Thing is even in the blowout at Rupp UT had a very good offensive game. It's just we shot incredibly well that game and this game not so much.
We need to pick it up on the defensive end.
Why does the truth hurt you so muchDo you just copy and paste this in every game thread?
