Game Thread. Cats vs Southern

[TortElvisII]

Southern thanks Cal for the free field trip, while they kick our ***.

Go root for Louisville.

Wait to camp cal.

 

[Kingslayer07]

Whatever. That’s a bad call and you know it. Oscar was straight up and down.

Nope. Watch it again. He leans his body over the defenders back

 

[ck-2]

I see why Cal schedules these crap teams now.

 

[bbnkat02]

I think I said this team would cause us headaches early. Whelp. Here we are.

 

[kyjeff1]

I don't get Grady. How did he score 2000 points ANYWHERE?

 

[Crawfords Corner]

********. You’re as blind as that ref.

Always check for the name of the UK "fan" who's responding to you.

 

[BlueGlasses12]

I don’t even know what to think right now.

maybe it’s not Gradys game? But I fully expected him to fire almost anytime he got a bit of space. Basically like Mintz has done this game. He should have the Green light to do so, if he wants the NBA it’s what he will have to do. Think Duncan Robinson.

 

[rick64]

WTH is Mintz doing? Jacking up shots like crazy.

Trying to make the fan base happy, shooting more 3s.

 

[G-PIP]

Mintz is solid, but certainly not spectacular. He's not good enough to be the starting 2G on a top team. But at least he comes to play, including on the offensive end, I want him to keep firing.

 

[jameslee32]

Go root for Louisville.

Wait to camp cal.

Football team looked good last week.

 

[kywildcat1021979]

Glad we are playing all these power houses preparing ourselves for more powerhouses to come!

 

[bigblue1971]

Hopkins will play the 3 this season in Cals system
Next season Livingston and Hopkins will play the 3 in Cals system. No way he's playing a 4 out system.

 

[bbnkat02]

Lol his back was at Oscar's knees.

Whatever. We’re wrong and stupid. Ref made an immaculate call. So immaculate Rupp moaned in awwwww.

 

[fatguy87]

He simply doesn’t understand offensive basketball- posting up in 2021 - he has not a clue anymore
Analytics will tell you it’s the worst percentage play in basketball- yet we run our offense through it

I remember when he was proud about teaching bigs to play away from the hoop. He used to boast about playing Patterson and Randle away from the rim and how it made him a different coach because most coaches would stick them down there.

 

[Pulaski Cat Fan_rivals377587]

Kentucky Basketball is boring as hell anymore. It's a shame it has gotten this way.

 

[rick64]

Gee thanks ESPN. Just had to show the Laettner shot one more time.

It would be different if they had a player worth throwing it to in the post. But they’re posting guys who have no clue how to play in the post. Very frustrating…

 

[jameslee32]

Toppin! OMG!!

 

[Runnin'Ramel]

He's starting to get it I think.

Minus the goaltending which was something you learn as a child.

What are you insinuating

 

[Trey_G]

Where you sunshine pumpers at now? This is BAD BASKETBALL! And it hasn’t looked this bad all year. We are not getting better.

 

[drew_ukfan_rivals]

Man I wanted that Toppin attempt to go down

 

[kywildcat1021979]

60 point pace. Love it. Always a rock fight against teams with a pulse.

Isn’t this team 3-5?

 

[TortElvisII]

Grady shoot the damn ball.

 

[jessieshorts8]

****** Notre Dame will kill this team.

 

[UKSanders_rivals37733]

Whatever. That’s a bad call and you know it. Oscar was straight up and down.

I initially thought it was a bad call because Oscar went straight up once the ball was in the air, but he used the forearm in the back of the Southern player

 

[MojoYamamoto]

I don't get Grady. How did he score 2000 points ANYWHERE?

I don't think Grady is the problem. Our offensive scheme could make Steph Curry look inept.

 

[gwjenning]

If Grady is afraid to shoot then put Allen in

 

[CB3UK]

I haven't been able to watch but one other game, listened to all the others.

I see us getting guys spaced out plenty on offense and then doing a real half assed job trying to pass it around and get to the open man.

I'm fine trying to feed Oscar if it's working but, you know...you kinda gotta give their defenders a reason to stop packing it in by hitting some outside shots.

No different than having Levis hit some mid range passes so we can run it with CRod.

 

[drew_ukfan_rivals]

Dontaie needs to take over

 

[BlueGlasses12]

Cal is telling Grady to shoot it, dude has to fire

 

[RunninRichie]

I don't get Grady. How did he score 2000 points ANYWHERE?

Jeff, there's a common denominator here. Cal ruins shooters. Go watch what Bob McKillop ran for Grady.

 

[KYWildCatsFan]

I don’t understand why Grady is hesitant to shoot the ball.

 

[jameslee32]

Collins starting to get it alright!!

 

[Runnin'Ramel]

This is last year level bad tonight thru 13 minutes.

 

[Kingslayer07]

Damn Collins. Nasty

 

[drew_ukfan_rivals]

Collins!! My goodness

 

[bigblue1971]

Collins just hit his head on the Rupp Area ceiling.

 

[rick64]

I don't get Grady. How did he score 2000 points ANYWHERE?

He could work harder to get open. But he Can’t shoot if nobody passes him the ball.

 

[BlueGlasses12]

Collins got springs in those legs? His effort this game is great
