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

[UK_fan_41102]

Hagans is playing with more confidence now.

 

[zannmann]

Put in Baker Quickly gives us nothing.

Cal forgot he is on the team.

 

[mash_24]

Hagans looks much more comfortable out there. But he can't shoot.

 

[ukfan041]

Crash those boards! Let’s go!

 

[hotelblue]

Have we run one offensive set? Carolina starting to slow it down and run theirs.

looks like we can run with them.

 

[ck-2]

Finally ran a set and fed the post!!! Need more of that!!

 

[LadyCaytIL]

Like how hard we are playing but man we could use some threes to go down.

 

[johnc17]

Beat the **** out of them on the inside. There you go!

 

[TheWyldKat_rivals45219]

I mean how can you not love Travis! Never takes a play off. Plays with great energy. Tough as nails. So glad we have him

 

[Crawfords Corner]

Have we run one offensive set? Carolina starting to slow it down and run theirs.

We ran a play that got a wide-open 3, but I forget who missed it

 

[TomTraubertsBlues]

They are calling NONE of the cheaters' turnovers.

 

[SophiesDad]

Reid is one tough hombre

 

[drew_ukfan_rivals]

Give Baker a little run

Keep cleaning the glass!

 

[Bill - Shy Cat]

Why is EJ and Richards in at the same time?

I thought Richards was playing good defense and rebounding

 

[mash_24]

Travis looks quicker today as well.

 

[RoyKent]

5/15 shooting and just 2/7 from three.

And it’s tied...good sign for the Cats!

 

[anon_9qtxg60vqzy0y]

Nick giving us some good minutes.

 

[hotelblue]

hey richards! air ball is ok get the effin ball.

 

[TomTraubertsBlues]

Love how Hagans is playing. He's gonna make some mistakes, but he's not . letting the stage intimidate him.

 

[BBUK_anon]

About stitching time CATS. Play like you MEAN it!!!

 

[20MRoster]

Love the effort on the glass, need some shooting. Both teams a bit sloppy so far.

 

[ck-2]

They have no one to handle Travis and PJ if we post them and feed the post PJ trying to prove he’s Steph Curry though.

 

[BLUEVADER]

I can See that they have no one to handle Travis and we don't have no one to handle Cam. I don't think they have anyone who can stop Hagan's penetration either.

 

[Wall2Boogie]

We are playing tough. Props to Richards so far dude is playing tough

 

[TheWyldKat_rivals45219]

1. If Baker is really a knockdown shooter wonder why Cal has not put him in. Why not put him in for a couple minutes to see what he does?

 

[BBUK_anon]

hey richards! air ball is ok get the effin ball.

He seems to be doing that. Has a few already...

 

[kywildcat1021979]

Travis takes an elbow and dusts it off like what fly just landed on my face! He's a BEAST!

 

[KyCatFan1]

I think they're playing too fast. If they can slow it down a smidge...

I actually like the pace. We had a few bad plays, but so do they playing this quick. We just need to keep attacking and making extra passes. Preferably tell PJ he isn't a guard and get in the paint and battle.

 

[mash_24]

Love the effort from Richards. If he would just show up like this every night he could really help us.

 

[Nooneputsbabyinacorner]

5 fouls on UNC to 3 on Kentucky. All the UNC fouls are on trying to go over Kentucky's size on the boards. Things coming together nicely for your team.

 

[zannmann]

Nick rebounding.

 

[Blue63Madison]

I hate to think what we'd be if Travis hadn't transferred here.

 

[Crawfords Corner]

5/15 shooting and just 2/7 from three.

And it’s tied...good sign for the Cats!

We play other teams who hit 30 foot jumpers with a long arm in their face. UK guys shoot wide open jumpers and miss them like crazy. I don't get it.

 

[clew84]

woah - a lot of micro criticisms here. Take a step back. This team is playing hard and looks like they belong so far. I’m seeing a lot to like in comparison to earlier games.

 

[BBUK_anon]

1. If Baker is really a knockdown shooter wonder why Cal has not put him in. Why not put him in for a couple minutes to see what he does?

Let Cal call it...Baker will get interjected. Let the emotions settle...

 

[carbonlib23]

get physical with them....and keep it up......

 

[TheWyldKat_rivals45219]

Love how Hagans is playing. He's gonna make some mistakes, but he's not . letting the stage intimidate him.

I definitely agree with you. I have been loving Hagans lately. I think when he penetrates that’s when he’s at his best. He seems to be getting more comfortable doing that.

 

[bigbluefattycat]

We could lose this game but it won't be because they have more talent. Duke game was a clear difference in talent. North Carolina doesn't have any player that is clearly on another level. I still can't name them after 9 mins deep.

 

[ManitouDan_anon]

score update ... 15-15 RT at the line .

 

[BLUEVADER]

They have no one to handle Travis and PJ if we post them and feed the post PJ trying to prove he’s Steph Curry though.

OJ has been an enigma, Lol I pretty much posted the same post you just did.
