***** OFFICIAL LSU VS UK GAME THREAD *****

[katwest]

LSU could walk off the court and we couldn’t score. Other teams that have been in slumps come to Kentucky and shoot the lights out, how this always happens I don’t know.

 

[Blue63Madison]

BS. Long rebound over his head.

You’re right. But he gave zero effort.

 

[Cbbcrazy2]

I realize they have hit a bunch of threes, but we can't throw it in the ocean so far. Against Alabama we made shots to keep us in it. We are a poor mans 8th grade team on offense.

 

[MbergCat]

Nights like tonight piss me off beyond words that Sharpe is sitting on the bench.

 

[GoBigBlue1224]

I don’t like our body language. Not sure what’s up tonight. Seem unmotivated, thought for sure it would be a high energy game after the interviews this week.

 

[Son_Of_Saul]

Did any of you really think we could keep winning SEC games without our starting guards?

Some of you downplayed Sharpe sitting.

Now those same fans look like naive fools.

 

[KYWildCatsFan]

Can not let LSU make another run to end the half. Keep it to 10 or under, regroup in the locker room and come out swinging in the next half.

 

[ck-2]

No offense to Grady but this team can't score 30 pts if he's bringing the ball up. It's painful to watch.

Exactly!! He’s a turnover waiting to happen if they press him. He’s a wing and Mintz is the closest thing to a Pg we have. This is stupid by Cal.

 

[RalphDaltonFan]

Mintz sucks whenever we need him to step up

He did a great job Saturday. You extend a guy's role for a game, it's doable. This is a bit much to ask. It's also shown tonight why several guys are still in CBB. The worst thing about Saturday will hopefully be a rallying cry--falling behind and thinking you can just turn it on. They look putrid tonight offensively.

Mintz switching off Pinson was odd early in game and got LSU in a rhythm. Swtich back.

Bryce Hopkins/Dontaie Allen should only be in in garbage time at end of games. They provide 0

 

[JonathanW_rivals]

We are missing our backcourt!!!!

 

[Jacobbleedsblue]

You already have like 100 posts in this thread and it isn’t even halftime. You’re beyond lame and not fooling anyone.

But he's got all-american under his name....

 

[ck-2]

Mintz is a bad point guard

He’s the closest thing we’ve got tonight.

 

[LineSkiCat14]

What do we expect? Teams can't be without its two guards, two playmakers and two of its three best players.

It will suck to lose, but you can't take away anything from this game. Take away guys like Ty and Wheeler and ANY team becomes a shell of itself.

 

[LmdCat]

what shot?

He has to take some shots when he is guarded just like other teams do when we are guarding them. He is 6'5"

 

[Lazlo7]

Grady passes up the three to miss the floater

 

[richbrookstomato]

Grady missing too many EASY runners!!!

Have to make those when LSU is denying you the 3!!!!

 

[MojoYamamoto]

With or without Tyty and Wheeler this is a terrible loss heading into a difficult game at Arkansas.

1 seed certainly gone with a loss today, 2 seed probably slips away as well.

We were always highly unlikely to get a 1 seed. We can lose this game and at Arkansas and still get the 2 seed.

 

[pauled#1]

Grady playing scared to death!

 

[Noxium322]

Our guys look confused as hell tonight.

 

[wildcat1515]

Grady needs to work on that runner, he misses alot of those.

 

[Blue63Madison]

Brooks being a no show can’t happen especially with our starting backcourt out. Inexcusable

Why single Brooks out? One player showed up for us tonight. Oscar.

 

[RoyKent]

This is laughable. LSU has been terrible and just got blown out by Vandy.

We can’t even score 20 points in a half. Ridiculous.

 

[bbnkat02]

Need Grady to hit three straight threes.

 

[jameslee32]

Mintz layup.

 

[richbrookstomato]

WE HAVE TO SCORE!!!!!!

COME ON!!!

 

[bookerfan66]

What do we expect? Teams can't be without its two guards, two playmakers and two of its three best players.

It will suck to lose, but you can't take away anything from this game. Take away guys like Ty and Wheeler and ANY team becomes a shell of itself.

The problem is that Wheeler and Tyty are very injury prone and it's hard to see them staying healthy for March.

 

[nssdigitalchumps]

Really missing the guards tonight lol

 

[kywildcat1021979]

Get this down to about 5

 

[GoBigBlue1224]

Also agree with previous statement about LSU screens. They are suspect. Could had been called a few times for moving

 

[SpamburgerHamburger_rivals101482]

LSU shooting so far above their average they have to come down to earth a bit. Just matters if we can find some shots. Regardless of how bad we all had it, quad 1 loss without two starters doesn't hurt too bad.

 

[RoyKent]

We were always highly unlikely to get a 1 seed. We can lose this game and at Arkansas and still get the 2 seed.

No we can’t. Not without a lot of help from other teams losing

 

[somersetcat]

Cal should be fired at halftime for letting Will Wade beat us. Cal’s coaching ability is a joke. Plain and simple. We look like a middle school team.

 

[bbnkat02]

How was Oscar NOT fouled there. Geez.

 

[HenryMuto]

Damn all our 3s have missed every single one

 

[LmdCat]

Why single Brooks out? One player showed up for us tonight. Oscar.

and Mintz

 

[KYWildCatsFan]

How was Oscar NOT fouled there. Geez.

We all know he was.

 

[BlueWorldOrder74]

No we can’t. Not without a lot of help from other teams losing

When you say we, what team is yours? Not Kentucky. So which?

 

[BigKari]

Gonna need a couple 3s to fall 2nd half

 

[kyjeff1]

Can't believe we have gone the entire first half and haven’t done anything to stop what they're doing up top.

 

[jbne222]

It feels like we're down 20 rn... so many missed opportunities on the last few possessions to close the gap with LSU's offense stagnating rn as well
