Richards leaving his feet 15 feet from the basket, after two years of coaching and playing in the system, wow.

Our guards switch way too fast, fight over a screen!!
What an absolute garbage half. There better be a maintenance crew on hand to fix the locker room because it should be demolished after the *** chewing this team should get.
Absolutely Mike White has outcoached Coach Cal in all eight of their meetings except the first one.
I hope Cal uses the line up he played the last 2 minutes. PJ at center works when the team you are playing is using 6'5 centers who are far too quick for the 2 7 footers.
One simple thing fixes all this. Our energy on defense. Thinking back to the Vanderbilt game, Tennessee game at home, Auburn game at home, our defense let us get into a good groove on offense.
Don’t worry Matt Jones on the post game will talk about how good Richards was and not mention his man abusing him on defense
Agree. Very few sets. No clue as to how to attack the zone
I don’t understand the kick ball rule. If the offense throws a bad pass at someone’s feet it shouldn’t stop the clock and give the offense a chance to reset - unless the defender intentionally kicks it.
This is just poor execution. We have given up a shitload of uncontested shots with a man wide open, coming off screens. It just looks like we are being lackadaisical on defense and we aren’t getting movement on offense.
Why doesn't PJ touch the ball EVERYTIME in the post?! Poor offense by the Cats and Cal.
Ridiculous. This is the 3rd or 4th best Calipari team. They can absolutely win it all.
Keldon and Herro aren’t playing bad. The lack of Reid and an elite point guard are our biggest issues.
First 10 minutes was good . The last 10 was garbage for sure. We were up 7 after 10 and that is how many points better then UF we are without Travis. people forget UF was beating us for 60% of the last game . They match up great with us due to having short , fast centers and 2 great freshman guards .
Anyone still pumping Richards isn’t worth listening to. He’s terrible and doesn’t belong at UK. I’ve said it since the season got under way. He’s not cut out for UK. I expect him to transfer.
His offense is getting us screened left and right. Must be nice to run sets.
Yep. You can't judge us without travis as he is the reason PJ is open , he is the reason the 3 pt shooters are open and so forth. Without Travis we are no where near a top 5 team. With him a top 2 team IMO.
Herro with just 3 shots- made 2. Cal needs to get him more looks. It would help if Hagans would pass it to him.
Go small 2nd half. Hagans, Quickley, Herro, Johnson, and Washington. Please
Think Cal can get Richards to play like Duncan by the time the tournament starts?
I think we’re getting there. Just 60 more minutes and he’s there.
Just glad we aren’t wasting time. He’s worth the minutes.
Even if what you say is true who’s going to step in and play any better?
