It is called switching. When you switch, players get lost, simple huh? Let it go, I know your upset, lol
So u didnt watch the replay u just talk smack about me. Willis wasn't there to switch on the screen cause he didn't stay with his man

Willis switched and guarded air leaving Briscoe to guard two players , experience
It happens, it was chaos, he was guarding the lane off the switch, he guessed wrong. And your fixated on Willis all year, 1 play doesn't lose or win a game, only in you Willis haters eyes does it.

I mean it's not just a players get lost its man to man d. U identify ur man stay with him he leaves the paint to set a screen u go with him and help briscoe on the screen . But u called me an idiot and clueless I'm cool with anyone on here til they insult my intelligence for pointing out the truth. I love Derek very proud of him the last 2 years but just like monk forcing a bad three and throwing the ball away late he made a mistake no need to insult me for it but u didn't say anything to the people insulting Briscoe who didn't manage to at least get a hand up despite accounting for two guys seems awful hypocritical

He wasn't on his man , experience should know better . It does lose you the game when you leave the winning shot wide open for no reason . You hate the truth

Talk smack?? You are blaming the game on a 22 year old, 1 play. I'll take up for our players, it happens, game over, we move on

True, Willis was in the lane guarding the basket because NC was in transition. The last thing you want to do is allow them a free run to the basket there. But, yes, I wish he had been in Mays's grill there, but give NC credit for giving the ball to their man with tge hot hand. I don't blame Willis at all. It was all helter-shelter there in the closing seconds. It'll hurt for a long time, but we will be ready to go through it all again next season. Now, who stays in school?
That's why I would have taken a time out after the made three tied the game. Let's set up our defense rather than let them make a scramble play and beat us. Most NCAA last second shots are made on those type plays, not on ones drawn up in the huddle.

Plus now your lying about me as well I haven't bashed one player all year I pointed out the truth and the only person bashed was you bashing me for it. Find one post of me bashing Willis before this thread where I just pointed out bone headed plays just like everybody does to alk the players in the game thread

I didn't say last play, I said, or implied, the run out Monk gave up. And it was one of the last couple plays at the end.
I said it was too bad Monk couldn't guard his man and Willis too , since Willis guarded nobody . But monk was guarding an actual player on the winning shot , doesn't even take experience to figure that out

NEAR the end of game, Monk makes a 3, then lets a runout happen, keep ignoring THAT play where they scored a lay up

Wow dude it is not bashing to correctly state someone made a mistake I did not do anything for u to defend him and insult me. I have watched a thousand posts this year bashing and I mean bashing our players you should have a million posts if u really did that instead u actually did bash me for doing nothing more than a color guy would do in the game and point out what happened truthfully. So here is another fact you are a huge hypocrite and a liar. Who has the nerve to insult another human being for doing nothing but making an accurate observation and not bashing at all. I'm sure karma thinks your a great dude for ur tireless efforts to save the world from facts! Best wishes man

Take up for what ? He left his man wide open , people pointed it out and you got angry . It's the truth , not even a hate .
Dude how dare you tell the truth this guy called me an idiot and lied and said I bashed Briscoe all year and I have never posted even one actual insulting thing about him I posted about monks bone headed plays late as well he didn't say anything about that. He called me an idiot and my basketball IQ and didn't start this defending players crap until I asked to back up what I said was stupid. He didn't say a word to the guys actually being wrong and insulting Briscoe

I am sorry but after watching this game live Monk should not go pro. he will never get a shot off

How dare you..this is a player's first program..as our leader tells us, it's not about UK or the state of Kentucky, it's about these kids..who are we to tell them to stay for another entire year (gasp) get better as a player, get a free education, live like kings and win a national championship? They have to go pro and they have to go now..they can't wait..what are you expecting them to do, stay in college like MJ, Bird, and Magic? It killed those guy's careers to do that..how selfish of you to want success for this program and have players mature and actually win a national title instead of being one of the biggest tease jobs in bball year after year after year

After all, it is all about the 5 stars, Draft Day, etc...
You are jumping around with various stuff because you don't have anything for what we pointed out . So here's my various point , I said early in the year that if we relied on Willis to win a title then we're in trouble and I was right . It was a response to those saying Willis was the key to the season , there's my random point for no reason . No doubt you'll rant on another irrelevant topic but at the end of the day Willis didn't guard anybody when his man hit the season ending shot like it or not .

4 players ran into the paint, 4 All watching, NO one guarding No one. 4 guys ran within 6 feet of each other.
I see you making stuff up, who in their right mind would say Willis is key to the season, Fake News I guess.

Willis man was the only one wide open , you can't change that no matter how much you try to deflect , distract or distort the truth . The senior didn't guard his man at all , experience failed . You guys spent the whole year and every year saying we need experience and this is what we get when experience is relied on .

You guys? Quote me when I ever said this? You can't.
This play wasn't in a half court set, it was in transition, you are taught to stop the drive. Pinson was driving hard, Fox and Willis was on the ball, Pinson kicked out to a open Mayes, it happens. 1 guy was wide open at foul line, and Jackson wide open on opposite side. As I said, 4 guys ran to the paint, 6 feet from each other, no one other than Briscoe had a man guarded. It happens, ask Wisconsin, and any other team that loses on a last second shot. You blame Willis on that play, but don't blame missed free throws and Monk day dreaming on a run out and getting scored on. I see why people abuse you on here, you are fixated on the wrong things. Later hater, I'm done giving you a platform to hate

Willis got punked all game by Maye , no denying that . How will we win next year without seniors leaving players wide open for game winners , long year . I thought experience was supposed to prevent that , I'd rather give talented underclassmen a try . But hey you keep acting as if he was guarding anybody and be outraged that somebody said do .
