Kentucky -- UCLA --- Gamethread

[UKCatNnc]

The Bruins say they will embrace the pace.

“We’re not going to change our identity because we’re playing Kentucky and go to the 1-3-1 zone and walk the ball up,” UCLA Coach Steve Alford said. “It’s just not our DNA. Our players like to get out in the open floor, they like to share the ball, they like to move the ball and create opportunities for each other and do that in an up-tempo style.

“If it not ends up being enough, then so be it, but we’re not going to change who we are. We’re going to Lexington to play the way we play and hopefully we’ll play well.”

- Steve Alford

Hopefully there will not be much "open floor" for UCLA to get out into. Go Cats!!

Bad coaching decision, Steve.

for one game yes but for the season probably good if they can get it going vs everyone else.

[JoeBeeHall]

[JerseyCat84_rivals57050]

Already a timeout? wtf

 

[Bkocats]

taking quick shots - not rebounding
ugh

not a good start. Come on Cats

 

[ck-2]

Briscoe shooting jumpers = a loss.

 

[Ineverplayedthegame]

Briscoe will never be a good shooter.

 

[TortElvisII]

Poor shot selection early on.

 

[KyCatFan1]

For such a big game, the excitement level coming through the TV is pretty low.

 

[Jakarii]

Misconception about Wenyen's "elite" defense

 

[UKWildcats#8]

Briscoe shooting jumpers = a loss.

Yeah he's already shot two. He should not shoot anymore the rest of the game

 

[Bkocats]

Yeah he's already shot two. He should not shoot anymore the rest of the game

he needs to just drive the basket

this is a very ugly start - nerves maybe?

 

[ManitouDan_anon]

Dont mind IB taking a few , dont like when they are misguided by 2 feet .

 

[ala_kat2]

We're finally facing a defense that we can't just blow by to the rim.

 

[ck-2]

That's briscoes game.

 

[Kycatspaws]

Briscoe. :clap:

 

[Fancatstik]
