********OFFICIAL GAME THREAD********

[LadyCaytIL]

Some home whistle....

Dont blame refs when we are playing like absolute sh*t

 

[MarkPftw]

Great 2nd half of the half. Great job. Just keep at it in the 2nd half and UK wins comfortably.

 

[Calsthebomb]

Duke's tied with Southern with 6 minutes left in the half. I wonder if their board is melting down like this one is.

What board?

 

[SilentsAreGolden]

I'll just say he's inconsistent.

With spurts of consistency. To be fair, most shooters are actually streaky shooters. Lamb was one of the few I can think of that didn't really have hot and cold spells. Booker was the epitome of streaky shooter. Murray not as much but more streaky than consistent.

 

[JoeBeeHall]

Diallo got a chip on the shoulder now . Maybe it will fire him up a bit . Could be they underestimated this team .

 

[ukfan041]

The woman in white behind the bench...she has a nice pair of basketballs under her shirt.

She fine!

 

[UK_fan_41102]

I thought it was just me...she is smoking.

Wonder how Cal would act if she was doing an interview with him?

 

[WildMoon]

Little bit at a time improve. Small step small steps.

 

[BoxterS]

I see the TROLL is out during the game

How so? Cal favors the athlete over the basketball player. This is common knowledge. But your tears are like nectar. Keep crying, "boo hoo he said something negative"

Unfortunately it is a dorito.

 

[kyjeff1]

Are they all legitimate fouls (not paying close enough attention) or are we getting the you are bigger then them so it is a foul treatment?

Legit fouls. We just run into people. Out of control.

 

[KYCAT78]

Probably grab her underarm

 

[Calsthebomb]

Cool ranch?

 

[catfando]

That sideline reporter. She’s got a face made for radio. No wonder Cal put his hands in his pockets.

 

[SilentsAreGolden]

We are pretty consistent scoring-wise. First 7 halves of the season 25, 48, 36, 37, 34, 31, 36,

 

[bbnkat02]

I wasn’t. Just merely stated we are getting some crappy calls.

 

[KyFaninNC]

Yeah I don't get it, why our guys are laying so far off of these shooters is beyond me.

Because we can't guard our own shadow right now.

What's the matter Troll,can't get any Ho's in Minardi anymore,or that Banner in the garbage too much to bear?

 

[kyjeff1]

Because we can't guard our own shadow right now.

I would think Cal would rather they drive the ball then take wide open threes.
Might as well play zone in that case.

 

[BBUK_anon]

Go CATS learn baby learn!!!

 

[UK_fan_41102]

The woman in white behind the bench...she has a nice pair of basketballs under her shirt.

Peter Jurkin agrees.

 

[Dr. H Lecter]

i know what i' d be squeezing.

 

[KyCatFan1]

Little bit at a time improve. Small step small steps.

Going to take a ton of these.

 

[LadyCaytIL]

Cal won't even play herro and baker next year .... Its like he took a billion dollar bet that he can win with tall teams that can't hit the broad side of a barn.

 

[RoyKent]

Ugly half, ugly team so far this year.

Frustrating team to watch

Knight
Wiltjer
Lamb
Murray
Monk
Ulis
Booker
Willis
Young

All guys who played significant minutes and were above average shooters.

Yeah, he prefers athletes because he is a defensive minded, man to man, coach first and athleticism plays a big role there. But he usually tries to have 1-2 shooters on each team w the exception of 2010. Baker would be that guy this year with Gabriel, SGA, Knox, Vanderbilt all capable but inconsistent shooters and SKJ as a stretch big.

 

[Monroe Claxton]

IU fans love Peter Jurkin

 

[ukfan041]

Let’s go, CATS! Start strong

 

[Cattoyz]

Gonna have to mute it. Antoine's terrible.

I never listen to the TV audio. They all suck. I do Tom Leach and Mike Pratt.

 

[LadyCaytIL]

It's not going to get much better until cal becomes a disciplinarian with this group and he has a habit of waiting / being too patient before he starts busting balls

 

[shaolin style]

Swaggy as always

 

[TortElvisII]

All I can think about is Antoine Walker blew through 110 Million.

That must have been fun.

 

[ukfan041]

Geez....rebound!

 

[DCFseattle]

I like Antoine Walker on the call.

 

[bbnkat02]

Cal needs to put glue on their hands.

 

[richbrookstomato]

Richards is STRUGGLING!!

My biggest concern is not having the go to guy for a last second bucket. Cal has went to Knox for that time and again and he simply doesn't have the explosiveness to create quality shots on his own when the whole building knows he's going to shoot. His best option is the midrange post as turnaround fade. I'd rather go with Diallo trying to get to the paint or Green.

 

[KyCatFan1]

 

[donngottie]

Could diallo learn to play the pg position? He seems to get to the paint a lot, doesn’t always end well but he seems to be our best off the dribble

 

[mash_24]

I like Antoine Walker on the call.

Think he does fine. Solid analysis.
