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

[bbnkat02]

Just yelled loud enough they should’ve heard me in Kansas City.

Is his a new UK tradition? Letting crap teams beat us in the S16

Ugh. So frustrated right now.

 

[Pulaski Cat Fan_rivals377587]

There's no reason Kentucky should have the scoring problems they have as often as they do.

 

[CAT fan in Chapel Hill]

Hagans being out is really hurting us right now.

 

[KyCatFan1]

This team just doesn't like playing with big leads.

 

[RoyKent]

We always do this.

Two chances to go up 15 and we turn it over. Since then we have been playing awful.

No way this game should be this close.

Not liking this

 

[RACdad]

I stopped drinking, but I think I may start again now. WTF!!!!!!!!

 

[Captain_Kentucky]

Gotta pound these guys inside

 

[Comebakatz3]

Then leave corner shooters

When he gets blown by, the defense sags and that leaves the shooter open.

 

[ZaytovenCat]

Feels like we are slowing it down to much.

Calipari Ball 101. If you have a lead in the second half you must slow down and allow the other team to get back in the game.

 

[kydmb99_rivals103809]

Blowing leads has been a problem all season

 

[Jazzycat3]

We just can’t have nice things!

 

[justin_uk_5]

They have swallowed the whistle in this second half. It's being called completely different than the first half.

Completely different. Amazes me how much officiating changes from game to game and even half to half. Makes no sense

 

[KentuckyStout]

Just as they start going we respond by rolling out our worst possible lineup

 

[clew84]

APB for KJ. Anyone seen KJ?

 

[dckala2_rivals16641]

Cmon cats

 

[Xception]

Ball movement is stagnant, too much dribbling

 

[ala_kat2]

Had to put Herro on #5, Davis, and no one seems able to guard him all at once. All 5 KY players dived to the lane to try to kept UH from driving and left the corner three wide open.
Come on guys!

 

[ManitouDan_anon]

I dont see us slowing it down , just bad half court offense .

 

[I bleed big blue]

We got to step up. And start rebounding. Its got to get fixed now! Go cats! Come on.

 

[richbrookstomato]

Keldon and Tyler have to make shots for us to be effective.

There's no reason Kentucky should have the scoring problems they have as often as they do.

 

[ABlockalypseBrow]

Why do we continue to shoot 3's when our advantage is inside?!!!!!

Our guards are being lazy. It’s how we’ve lost literally all of our last four losses. It’s usually when the officials swallow their whistle and let their guards hack us.

 

[MbergCat]

Come on boys, weather the storm.

 

[wromanp7]

We are okay.
Crazy no points scored by any of;
Hagans
Baker
Quickley
Johnson
EJ
Travis
Richards

In 2nd half

 

[RoyKent]

Score here or we are in trouble

 

[144catfan]

All rock fight basketball does is give a less talented opponent a chance to beat you, happened with k state last year, hopefully not tonight.
We just never push the tempo

 

[ABlockalypseBrow]

Keldon and Tyler have to make shots for us to be effective.

And they have to work to get and take good shots in order to make them.

 

[Crawfords Corner]

NR with the tip

 

[jameslee32]

Nick!!

 

[CatsRWild]

thank you Richards

 

[KentuckyStout]

Thank you nick

 

[mhroe1984]

huge tip-in there Nick!

 

[RogerIndy]

I stopped drinking, but I think I may start again now. WTF!!!!!!!!

 

[Pete391]

Calipari Ball 101. If you have a lead in the second half you must slow down and allow the other team to get back in the game.

yes playing slow ball now..Walk ball down the court, throw it around a few times and take a bad shot...

 

[akaukswoosh]

Hagans has 2 points and 1 assist and IQ is on the bench.

 

[Bluest Member]

Play like you did in first half dont take your foot off the gas pedal Cats,play though D and take the phone calling Sampson team out

 

[ukfan041]

Nice board, Nick! Stop with the jumpers tho

 

[fatguy87]

Hopefully that was our major drought for the game. We’re prone to those.

 

[UKNothinButNet]

Richards shooting jumpers makes me cringe

 

[HenryMuto]

My stomach doing flips inside.

 

[KyCatFan1]

I dont see us slowing it down , just bad half court offense .

Shot clock going below 10 nearly every single time.
