GAME THREAD: UK V DUKE

[mcwildcats04]

Brooks and Ware on the floor makes it 3 on 5.

Yep

 

[ck-2]

Why not get another shooter on the floor instead of Brooks or Ware?

 

[fisherscat]

Just not enough offensive talent. Not nearly enough. Cats are scrappy and playing hard and competing. But Duke has more talent. Gotta try to keep it close and see what hapoens

 

[ScottGreene22]

Where’s all the guards? Wheeler the only one that’s showed up

 

[liveblue92]

Need to spread the floor and stop playing 3 around 2. Give Washington and Wheeler some room to work.

 

[FiveStarBBN]

Banchero is a good player but not a generational one. Not saying her won’t grow into something great but he’s definitely not a Zion or anything

Zion would take Banchero’s soul. In college or Pro’s.

 

[bigblue1971]

Brooks is Cals Askew this year. He'll play him win or lose.

 

[CatInCanuckLand]

Plenty of chances for Allen to at least get the blood flowing for a couple minutes. Cal is a coward.

 

[kywildcat1021979]

Brooks has been a big disappointment tonite

and his first 2 seasons but I’m sure he’s a great kid!

 

[Jamal Mercer]

Please stop the weave, we have to screen and get some open looks, one on one shots won’t work.

So nothing has changed from previous years.

 

[RoyKent]

Everyone not named Wheeler is shooting 6/28 tonight

 

[Kingslayer07]

******** this piece of **** coach and dick bag Bilas. I can't wait till this is over.

The Duke jerking off is insane tonight

 

[Yardeth]

These guys will have their games where they will shine

 

[TheWyldKat_rivals45219]

KB cannot guard Banchero, put Top back in he needs to play the rest of the game.

Yup, KB gots to get out and TOP has to take over duties.

 

[St.PatterSoN-54-]

Brooks offers nothing

 

[nkuCATfan]

Bancharo is one ugly smug d bag dukie. Wouldnt mind to see him take a shot to the face, fracture that smugness out of him

 

[bookerfan66]

Cal has changed NOTHING.Keeping Brooks and Ware on the floor.

 

[MbergCat]

After almost a half, I will say this. I think Duke is the better team, because their bigs are a problem. But I think we've held our own and Wheeler has proven to be fantastic. We will be fine going forward. Not many nights will we play three 7 footers.

 

[MychalG]

Brooks is getting pissed on by Banchero.

First time seeing Banchero play..He is the real deal..has a very smooth game. We don't have anyone that can guard him on the perimeter and that is where he likes to play. Good looking player..

 

[G-PIP]

So I’m gonna say it, Brooks is a good kid but I’m not sure he can be in this game

If Brooks can't give us some interior scoring, then I think Toppin creates more problems for Duke.

 

[JwUKFan11]

Definitely 6’10 superstar

I could hear Bilas mumbling but sounded like balls on his chin or something. Odd.

 

[Jacobbleedsblue]

I can't believe I just saw the Durant bush league foul draw called on college.

 

[jameslee32]

Ref was right there as the ball hits Ware as well. Biased plays it all off as nothing,

 

[warrior-cat]

If we were hitting our shots as we were being told we could we would have the lead.

 

[BourbonBalz]

A junior Brooks should give us something. He’s giving us NOTHING.

 

[IFerg1969]

I'm starting to "cringe" whenever he touches the ball. For a kid that's been here for over 2 years, he should be MUCH better than what he has shown so far this year. He is weak and has no moves or any reliable shot.

I don’t understand why people were hyping him up as one of UKs better players this year. I’ve never liked his game. Never thought he had the talent to be anything other than average at best. Maybe he’ll prove me wrong.

 

[ck-2]

I predicted 3 min for Allen. Looks like that was too much. Cal just does not like Allen on the floor.

That makes me not like Cal.

 

[kyjeff1]

Put Hopkins in for Brooks and leave him in there. Brooks is killing us.

 

[drew_ukfan_rivals]

I really don’t think Banchero is that good. He hit a long 2, that’s nice. Then he’s getting nba rip thru calls

protected by the refs. He’ll be another dukie bust in the nba

 

[RoyKent]

Cal has changed NOTHING.Keeping Brooks and Ware on the floor.

Who is he supposed to put in for them?

 

[numberonedad]

Brooks needs to be at Ohio U or a Toledo type school

 

[ScottGreene22]

KY smaller but scrapping not getting up enough 3s

 

[TheWyldKat_rivals45219]

Wheeler is tuff as EFF love his energy

 

[Rupp'sRunt]

Everyone gets yelled out and Keion gets a pat on the head. Thats dumb

 

[CincyUKFan]

Our HOF coach sure seems to do a poor job of building good rosters of late. Brooks and Ware are basically unplayable.

Toppin should back up Tschwiebe, and situationally they can play together. And we should be running four guards.

 

[ManitouDan_anon]

I predicted 3 min for Allen. Looks like that was too much. Cal just does not like Allen on the floor.

Its criminal. I dont know what the deal is but I've never seen a Ky kid wearing Ky blue get hosed like Cal does DA . Yeah I know he's not a well rounded player , but unless you haven't noticed ... OUR OFFENSE SUCKS *** .

 

[Burly]

Brooks usually plays better in second half

 

[loublue22_rivals308424]

Banchero looks years older than Toppin or Brooks, who have played multiple years of College Basketball

 

[jameslee32]

SW to Toppin!

 

[Crawfords Corner]

Wheeler with another beautiful feed. Damn its nice having a PG
