Ok guys 3:13 to get er done

 

[STL_Cat]

11 boards from Toppin makes me happy

 

[Cats192]

Toppin is MUCH better as a role player. He's getting rebounds and taking the easy shots. This is who we need him to be.

 

[bbnkat02]

I'm blind
I'm deaf
I want to be a ref

You can always count on refs to suck and blow.

 

[Bkocats]

Toppin has 11 rebounds
Hmmmm

 

[mhroe1984]

South Carolina beats us in Rupp then loses their next two games at home by a combined 53 points.

 

[MidseasonTweak]

Oscar has been unreal tonight.

 

[G-PIP]

Stall ball time

With the offense we have sans Oscar it might be smart.

 

[tls]

With 2 FTs here, Toppin will have a double double

 

[RACdad]

Our back screens are terrible

 

[The_Answer1313_rivals]

As bad as the 1st half was, this 2nd half has been great............on both ends

 

[J-Ryan]

Hello Oscar…my old friend..

 

[Crawfords Corner]

Much needed time out for Oscar I think. He looked a little tired on those last 4 free throws.

 

[rob_47]

You can tell the team is happy to have Wallace running the point. They trust him more.

 

[richbrookstomato]

Make your Free Throws Jacob to make up for AAAALLLLL of the WIDE OPEN jumpers you've missed tonight!!!!!

Although he has rebounded the ball.

 

[STL_Cat]

The Wheeler thing is … over. Gotta be. It’s not even arguable anymore

 

[DaDirtyLeb69]

Nope

Him and reeves shoot the ball too quick a lot, they don’t get there feet set

 

[Rideordiewildcat]

Wheeler screwed himself with his birthday wish. He wished for a win, which could only come with him on the bench little did he know.

 

[anon1751545683]

Great halftime adjustments by Cal.

 

[pauled#1]

I wish Oscar would do a little something! lol

 

[EliteBlue]

11 boards from Toppin makes me happy

His best game of the year imo. Finally starting to focus on rebounding and putbacks…anything else is just icing on top

 

[bbnkat02]

Hello Oscar…my old friend..

My MATB is back and I’m nodding off happily.

 

[TriCountyCAT]

Toppin has done what it takes to stay on the floor, just cut out the jump shots

 

[Cawood86_rivals]

Toppin has 11 rebounds
Hmmmm

I know....he's only 6-9 with 40 plus vertical

 

[Wildcats1st]

Toppin is MUCH better as a role player. He's getting rebounds and taking the easy shots. This is who we need him to be.

He’s also dishing the ball.

 

[ck-2]

Our back screens are terrible

Absolutely horrible. I don’t know if the coaching staff doesn’t focus on it or if they can’t teach it. Either way it’s awful and why we struggle to get open looks.

 

[Bkocats]

So is Wheeler pouting?
I like the kid I really do
But…

 

[UKWildcats1987]

The Wheeler thing is … over. Gotta be. It’s not even arguable anymore

We will see. Calipari will cover and say he wasn't 100%. I still don't think this team is very good but Wheeler needs limited minutes for UK to even make the ncaa.

 

[SophiesDad]

The old Toppin would seem to check out when his shots weren’t falling. He is starting to let the game come to him more while doing a great job defensively and rebounding

 

[Indymycats]

Not disagreeing about Lindsay, but Cal had his foot on the free throw line on that Tech. Cal earned it.

The rest of the game has been a ton of trash calls though.

Yeah Cal was out there pretty far. I was commenting more about those two and their ongoing feud they have had over the years.

 

[bbanks81]

11 boards from Toppin makes me happy

Boards and hustle are there, but 3-10 (feels like 1-15) ain’t going to get us far. Kid just isn’t a shooter and if he is off, he is WAY off. Not the type of player that just needs to keep shooting it to get in rhythm. CJ and Reeves simply can’t miss all these threes (2-10)

 

[kennyskywalker34]

As bad as the 1st half was, this 2nd half has been great............on both ends

Wheeler only a minute or so playing in 2nd half.

 

[HenryMuto]

We are the last game to finish all other games are done for the night. I can't stand 9 PM games on weekdays.

 

[G-PIP]

This is by far the most explosive Oscar has looked since last year. That knee 100%?

Actually, he's more explosive on offense than last season, don' you think? More confident in his moves to the basket. He's a load, man.

 

[Bkocats]

He’s also dishing the ball.

Had a couple of good blocks as well

 

[KyCatFan1]

Welcome back Oscar, we have missed you

 

[kyjeff1]

Oscar is killing it today

 

[CincyUKFan]

Frederick hasn’t been close tonight

The frustrating thing is that when Oscar plays like this, all we need is for some guys to be able to make wide-open shots. And more often than not this season they have not been able to do that.

 

[SophiesDad]

So is Wheeler pouting?
I like the kid I really do
But…

I like him a lot too. Especially watching from the bench with Wallace running the show.

 

[Wildcats1st]

Wheeler screwed himself with his birthday wish. He wished for a win, which could only come with him on the bench little did he know.

Instant classic right here
