**********OFFICIAL GAME THREAD*********

[Bkocats]

I ***** during games because I KNOW we're better than this
this half starting like I expected the game to start

 

[LadyCaytIL]

That was a pretty set. Willis for 3

I mean if that was even a play lol. But it worked

 

[Pulaski Cat Fan_rivals377587]

I'm with you, Pulaski Cat Fan. Although Briscoe is having an outstanding game today against inferior competition, IMHO the 2016-17 'Cats would be a much better team if Briscoe was not starting. Briscoe's return to the lineup after his injury has badly stunted the development of Fox and Monk -- both of whom were outstanding and coming into their own in Briscoe's absent. IMHO, the tandem of Fox and Monk could be the best backcourt combination in the country. But, Briscoe was anointed as "the team leader" before they ever played a game, and the powers that be will insist that that be the way it is throughout the season. Thereby, IMHO, the powers that be adversely affect our chances to win No. 9.

Agree

Wow.

Dump it in the paint every single possession. 7 fouls on their two centers.

 

[KyCatFan1]

The switch defense is perhaps the best modern defense if you have the athletes for it, which we do

No we don't. We constantly have guards on bigs giving up rebounds and scores and bigs on the perimeter giving up open 3's or drives to the basket. We should only switch guard on guard and big on big.

 

[Bkocats]

Team showing much more effort in the second half. Need
To match the intensity start to finish

that's the biggest issue, IMO -= not that they don't "have it." But that effort lacks at times

 

[TortElvisII]

Monk just needs to shoot.

 

[MrLair]

Monk!!!

 

[anon1763419335]

if only we had skills guys. wait...we havent missed a shot int he 2nd half yet

 

[ukfan041]

There we go!

 

[John Henry]

Time out

 

[Bkocats]

oh DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYUM

THAT IS WHAT I WANT TO SEE!

aaaaaand....everybody drink!

 

[TortElvisII]

I still see more Ron than Dwight.

 

[caneintally]

Pretty pretty good. ( in my best larry david voice)

 

[WildMoon]

Finally, this is why we were saying sloppy first half.

 

[*CatinIL*]

CATS looking a bit more serious now...

 

[Fancatstik]

Keep running the floor Bam that a way

 

[KentuckyStout]

That's how you murder teams Kentucky.

 

[Bellcat70]

How would the start if the 2nd half look against the tar holes?

 

[KyCatFan1]

There's the Flintstones reference.

 

[TortElvisII]

Cal read this thread at the half.

 

[anon1763419335]

7-15 from three....wish cal would recruit shooters

 

[Calsthebomb]

Briscoe doing it all today. Nice dish to Bam for a dunk!

 

[caneintally]

Bam's offensive moves have grown leaps and bounds since he got here. I want him to be fed and fed as he can't be guarded by most bigs in college even good ones like this gutsy or whatevs his name is.

exactly - don't care who the competition is, you gotta bring it
when focused, this team can play anyone, I think

 

[Bluesnky]

I still see more Ron than Dwight.

This is a funny comment. If you're going to be negative, please be like this.

 

[CELTICAT]

Not sure if these guys really have the killer instinct of a championship level squad.

 

[kyjeff1]

Cats are about to crack this ***** wide open.
Now, what do all you negative Nancy's have to say now? Hofstra blew their wad in the first half. This is going to be a 45 point win. Some of you guys need to step the F away from your computers and/or phones during games because you're not mature enough to handle your emotions.

 

[caneintally]

Yep can't have too many [winking]

 

[Cattoyz]

Cats up by 26. It's too bad The Cats let teams hang around and don't bury them.

 

[Wall2Boogie]

They actually look like they are playing like a team. Everyone eats

 

[WildMoon]

I would like to sit in coach cal's half time. I would like to hear the massacre.

Well you gotta remember we aren't recruiting well anymore according to retard 3.0

Not getting Monk the ball for a long segment during UCLA game cost us that game.

 

[MrLair]

[laughing]

 

[LadyCaytIL]

Ok wow. great ball movement leading to great play!!

 

[JoeBeeHall]

Lets see if they go for the Juggler vain .

 

[KyCatFan1]

Team finally playing with a sense of urgency. I don't know what Cal said at halftime, but he needs to bottle it and give it to the team every game.
