***Game thread Wright St vs UK*****

[Panthur]

If we’re the 8th worst team in the SEC I hate to see the 7 before us!

Right??

 

[Runt#1969]

Oweh is very very steady !!

very

 

[PoBilly]

Right now we are up 18 and not playing anything near perfect. Pope has to love this. He has all kinds of stuff he can show.

 

[kywildcat1021979]

That’s how you finish at the rim!

 

[lazycat75]

We can play 10 grown *** men this yr not fr

 

[Farsight]

I think the biggest thing this team needs is better offensive rebounding.

 

[TortElvisII]

Chandler bailed out there.

 

[onearmedjesus]

Williams is just a man!

 

[J-Ryan]

Williams. Sheesh man. Hes a beast

 

[Yardeth]

Pick your poison Wright State

 

[RoyKent]

Williams is a beast

 

[Runt#1969]

Kentucky women win 98 - 43.

great day to be a Kentucky basketball fan !

up 22 now ? hmmmmm ....

 

[Shaudylo]

Amari is a stud

 

[BlueWorldOrder74]

Really want to see a shot go in at the end of a half.

 

[Yardeth]

I’m smelling Double Double for Williams tonight.

 

[TomTraubertsBlues]

9 rebs at half. Oscar 2.0?

 

[megablue]

Williams is a beast

How in the hell did he only play 23 minutes a game last year ??

 

[*Fox2Monk*]

Oweh, Butler, Carr, Robinson, Williams need a lot of run.

Butler with a wagner layup

we do have continuity from last year!

 

[darkshadesofblue]

Amari’s a Monster

 

[NociHTTP]

Oweh will learn to extend his arms on defense, not just do the chicken wing thing where he wiggles his fingers, lol.

 

[podgejeff_]

Thing is, the threes are barely falling.

This is exciting.

 

[BlueWorldOrder74]

I want to see this team go full speed entire 2nd half and best this team by 40. Foot on the gas, do not let up.

 

[YankeeCpt_rivals378522]

we look real good!
very excited about our cast of characters!!!

 

[richbrookstomato]

LOVE the pace of play Coach Pope employs!!!!

So many options on the offensive end and contests EVERY shot on the other end.

FUN watching ACTUAL basketball again!!

 

[ck-2]

Feels so refreshing watching this game.

 

[Son_Of_Saul]

St Johns 40 Fordham 26 at half

UK 40 Wright St 22

St. John's is my second-favorite team this year.

[JPFisher]

Pick your poison Wright State

I've been so dang giddy watching us drive and cut to the basket when they sell out on the three. Suffocating defense so far, better rebounding, and scoring prowess. Not a bad half at all. Loving it.

 

[Runt#1969]

UK 46
raiders 24

at half.

very satisfying

 

[kennyskywalker34]

Right??

This team may not win the SEC it's loaded. But no way they finish out of the top 4. Likely 1 or 2

 

[chroix]

We could be up by way more.

 

[Son_Of_Saul]

Feels so refreshing watching this game.

Pope was having fun, joking with assistants and keeping it positive during his critiquing moments.

 

[Jamal Mercer]

We are taking advantage of mismatches on the court for the first time in 15 years.

Williams looks great

 

[ArtLaibsGhost_rivals]

Bigs are handling it way too much on the perimeter. Let the guards be guards.

No, the offense is working exactly like it's supposed to.

 

[podgejeff_]

Look at that offensive balance.

 

[Yardeth]

I wonder what adjustments Pope makes for the second half?

 

[Runt#1969]

Methinks the demise of Kentucky basketball has been greatly exaggerated.

- you can quote me on that one.

 

[Saven]

I like what I see so far. It feels a heeluva lot less tense than the last few years on the sideline.

 

[Son_Of_Saul]

We could be up by way more.

It's going to feel bizarre when this team inevitably turns up a few 70 point dingers because they're so explosive from three. Pope averaged 81/game last year with lesser talent. I think these guys get to around 83 to 85/game.

 

[lazycat75]

Amari's a walking double-double
