Why does Richards ever see the floor? He’s clearly the worst big we have. I don’t get it. Keep him on the bench. We don’t need him. Travis and EJ are much better players. You don’t have to play the whole team Cal. Good grief. He does nothing.

Is anyone else just kinda bored watching this brand of basketball? Or is it just me?

I just kinda sit here and stare at the TV, not getting mad or excited.

That was honestly the most boring 50 point half I’ve ever seen.

It’s been that way for years
These little teams come in and shoot lights out. Something about Rupp is conducive for it

Because they can't physically or athletically play with the Cats unless they gear everything towards making and taking 3s. What people would notice if they went back is these teams getting shot clock violations because they pass up wide open 2's opportunities to take good or bad 3s and hope they go in. They have to come in here and make 10-15 3-s to even have a chance.

Richards with 4 points and zero rebounds at the half , I'm not able to watch , I'm at work with no SEC network , but that sounds sorry as hell .

this team has to improve defensively. offense will be ok because of size and athleticism but defense is about effort. hopefully Cal can get them there

Offense looks good. We still don’t communicate in defense and have trouble staying in front of our man. Thank goodness it’s just Winthrop.

There was no screen. He was moving to the wing and the guy jumped in front of him and flopped.

Keldon may be the worst defender we have. On ball or off the ball.

PJ looks selfish out there today.
Equals fun at parties...sheesh 1.5 non negative comment per 5

Our weakness on D is 3 pt D.

Their strength on O is 3 pt shooting.

I think we have done fairly decent so far. A couple lapses but idk about being pathetic.

Their strength is 3 pt shooting??? At least look it up before you spew nonsense. They are shooting 30% from three this year. That’s not a strength.

Good. He has 13 points and 8 rebounds on 5-8 shooting. I’m totally fine with him asserting himself and being the go to guy.
He’s done some good things no doubt but the offense stalls when he touches it. He dribbles more than a guard. He should be the go to guy but not catch and dribble, dribble, dribble until he barely gets rid of it. He just needs to quit turning it over so much. Him and all our bigs.
