Thing is even if you are the less talented team defending 3 pt shots is more random than defending 2 pt shots. So just bomb away from 3 and hope they fall. That’s how UK losses at home to USC. I’d venture to guess most upsets happened that way.

There’s a lot more randomness to all this than anyone would like to admit. Especially come tourney time. ONE of the top teams still wins most of the time but you can never really tell who is going to get upset by some random team that just shoots crazy one game
100 this ^^^ ... that's why they call it a game !!

Kentucky's biggest issue right now is turnovers. Even with Wheeler not playing today, Kentucky still managed to turn it over 19 times. That cannot happen period.

Our FT's also improved a little, but still needs some work. For the first time this season, I watched a team having fun out there. I can't imagine the pressure on these guys before this game was played. It's good to see them enjoying it today. Now, it's time to get ready for Georgia on Tuesday.
Wheeler's turnover rate is 2.2 per game, which is not high. His biggest issue is when they happen.
