Toppin is quickly becoming one of my most hated players ever.
Most inefficient player Ever!
Tons of shots, low %, avg rebounder, poor passer.

Just incredibly difficult basketball to play. Guys dribble into the paint, full of teammates, then kick to a wing, who is covered because the driver can't shoot, and the the wing can't make an entry pass because there's 6 people in the paint.
10 million a year.
And we just played inside out basketball with two 5's. Cal is washed.

England vs France, Arkansas vs Oklahoma >>>>>>>>>>>> watching UK play.
Livingston had a couple good moves down low 1st half, essentially haven't seen him since.
Can't risk missing out on the stellar production we've been getting from Toppin and Collins tonight, imo.
Oscar shoots 55% from 2. Wallace shoots 50% from 3. Reeves shoots from 49% from 3.
Those 3 guys should account for 75% of the shots.

Mbappe is the best, most enjoyable athlete on tv right now. Y’all enjoy the rest of that game. I’ll be watching futbol.
Simplicity is the answer…
Less substitutions
Less lineups
Play thru Oscar on the block
Get looks for reeves and wallace
Run when can

Did any of you basketball bennies notice we attacked from 6/7 minutes on with a lead instead of stalling it?
What happened?
We extended it out to our biggest lead. Attack. Play to win.

Actually, today Oscar is pretty enjoyable. Enjoy soccer!
What a weird game. The first 10ish minutes were the most enjoyable basketball we've seen then a reversion to terrible spacing, decision-making, and rotations that have marred this year so far. And then Oscar decided "F*** this" and committed a reverse gangrape on a bunch of pocket-protector wearing dorks.
Of course we scored 69 points.

If, once again, our offense has to rely on Oscar to carry it, we ain’t winning ****.
30 min of good ball today, 10 min of POOR. An improvement but still a ways to go.
Agreed but today was more like when a running back can't be stopped so you just run him until the other team changes its scheme or quits. Yale could do nothing to stop him and he needs to get back to his old form, so I'm glad we just ran the offense exclusively through him in the second half.
Frederick with 9 minutes today on 2 shots. We have to find a way to force a Reeves Frederick wing combo come March or it ain't happening. Plenty of time but not seeing how we get there.
Frederick has been a big disappointment regardless of the amount of shots he takes.
Wheeler playing 34 minutes and taking the second most shots 
A few guys have been duds we thought were ready.
The only guy I think can help of those few is Fredrick. Gotta get him making shots

Well, another year of stagnant offense. Cal could at least wear a damn suit and not look like he is heading to Dunkin Donuts for his morning coffee. Not too much to expect of your $9M Head Coach at the University of Kentucky for christs sake.
Whether I like or not Oats is the only option I see at this point. I do think next year is Cals last ride. Steven's tells us to get pumped and it's likely Oats.
I guess holtman could sneak a couple F4s and make it interesting but obviously not likely.
Musselman has to be Mitchs man as well I guess.

This World Cup game was unreal. Compared to the US was like comparing us to the Warriors.
Quite a few good options. I like Oats. Love Drew, Danny Hurley, Muss and Tommy Lloyd.
Mitch and Drew are Jesus boys. I love the way he builds teams and coaches.
Cal’s washed up. I mean, it’s only December, we have good personnel and there’s always a chance he’ll discover our obvious lineup, but I’m not counting on it.
That idiot doesn’t realize “positionless” basketball means playing smaller guy in traditionally bigger positions, NOT the other way around.
He took more shots than Wallace, Reeves, and Fredrick combined.Wheeler playing 34 minutes and taking the second most shots
Look - unlike some in here I don’t excuse shooters not hitting shots just because of their **** coach - BUT playing more shooters together lessens the burden. Keying on Fredrick wouldn’t be so easy if say Reeves and Livingston were also on the floor.
Thing is -even mentioning this **** seems redundant. Everyone who follows basketball knows all this **** now. It’s not even preaching to the choir. Like this is established science.
It’s like hearing someone saying the earth is flat. Cal’s lineups are flat-earther stuff. It’s not even controversial. It’s just wrong and stupid.
Anyway I’m getting F’d up tonight. Merry Christmas.

Honestly, I haven’t watched the last two games. It’s the same **** over and over, so why bother?
I’ve been addicted for almost 40 years. Why do smokers keep burning those cigs?
I just keep hoping Cal figures it out because I think the personnel is there. This isn’t 2021.
Some great stuff from Hoops Insight here:
Only 2 UK guards under Calipari have taken more than even 15 threes out of pick and roll in a season: Tyler Ulis went 16-33 as a sophomore, and Brandon Knight went 12-32 as a freshman. It’s not a weapon Calipari offenses tend to feature.
