All you EJ Haters....

EJ was awesome last night. If we could get that (or close to it) consistently from him then we would be a completely different team. I'm not sure if he can play like that regularly but we all know the talent and ability is there. It's up to him now!
Was kinda worried there for a minute that Cal's 'tweak' for EJ was to have him shoot that 16' jumper and then he misses his first two
Great post! You are always so gracious to our players !!

Missed layup and EJ (shockingly) misses the put back.
Comical how terrible he is.

Lots of disagreement when it comes to criticism when they are not playing at their absolute best. But no real fan wants any player not to do their absolute best.
Nobody has ever hated EJ, people just want him be productive and reach his potential and he may be on his way. He has everything you need to be successful and like Nick maybe it's starting to happen. There is always somebody like you that comes on here after somebody that has struggled most of the year has a good game. I would say you can tell us how crow tastes. Why can't you just be happy and leave the rest of it out. When you play at Kentucky nobody is immune to criticism on message boards. It comes with the territory besides most of has been constructive criticism.
What I saw from EJ last night was a hunger for the ball. He fought to get to the loose balls. He wasn't afraid of contact. I especially liked that and-1 late in the game. If he builds on this we can all look back and say this was the turning point of the season for these Cats.
That's a lie, I've seen AT LEAST 6 threads with titles like "Why I HATE EJ Bontgumery."
Cal said the coaches had worked with EJ this week. Obviously, being more forceful and be more involved was some of what they worked on.
No you haven't. Stupid thread, just own up to it and move on. Bontgumery lol. Kids today.
It is a stupid baiting thread. Whomever or whatever was said about his play this year has been correct. He's been awful. I just hope EJ Bontgumery shows up every night from here on out because the EJ Montgomery hasn't been.
The only thing UK fans are guilty off is wanting perfection on or around day one. They hate waiting on development. We all need to allow these guys the time to come into their own and develop the skills for the college game.
Guys like the OP really piss me off because they seem to put themselves on a pedestal and want to make themselves look smart for calling out others once a player does well. Like they know a player is destined for greatness while others are too stupid to see it. Attention ***** comes to mind.

We can only hope, but to be honest I have seen this movie many times before, so before I get excited, I will wait a few more games.
Smart, IMHO. I'm glad I'm not the one who has to make roster decisions in a matter of a game or two. It isn't like baseball where you can wait and see how a guy does over the next ten games.
Gonna have a breakout year like PJ Washintun did last year. Go Cats!
Thought you were just messing with everyone, I was just messing around also.
First of all let me say I have never been an EJ hater, but, a couple of decent games and one pretty good one do not equal Crow being served up for dinner, in my opinion. That being said, I am happy for him and the team that he is playing better.
EJ had an off game vs UT. We need him desperately to make a run. Juzang picked up the slack for him vs the Vols.
Starting to feel like a normal game and not an off game. The last game was more of an anomaly it seems.
If you watch Sestina on the floor, you realize just how important E.J. is.
The thing with EJ, Brooks, Sestina....we need those guys to do the dirty work. The stuff that doesn’t necessarily show up in the stat sheet. Block out, tip balls you can’t rebound, hedge hard and make it difficult on the other teams offense. We are going to get the vast majority of our scoring from the guards and Nick. These guys need to get down into the trenches and do work.
WTF is that link, not one word there about any fans hating EJ.
He certainly has returned to form.
As I’m in Bangkok, I’m just now watching. He looks as lost as ever in this one.
I doubt EJ will ever be the kind of guy to do the dirty work . You have to have some toughness to be that kind of player .
Our forwards are steaming garbage. When Fletcher ware and Jackson are here EJ and brooks are gonna be so far down the bench they'll be in Frankfort. As for Nate well hopefully he's got a good degree from bucknell because he won't be playing basketball for a living
It’s a beautiful country and if you ever have a chance to visit, you’ll find Thai food to be even better here. Also, the beaches rival Hawaii’s.
