Official Kentucky vs. Alabama Game Thread

[Jamal Mercer]

Funniest thing about our “offense” is when we post up, by the time we finally get it to Sarr or Brooks or Jackson they are almost at the 3 point line

 

[kywildcat1021979]

never thought I'd see the day UK would get blown out by alabama

Especially on the basketball court!

 

[kyjeff1]

Wouldn’t it be awesome to have a veteran team every year like Alabama has this year? Any of these Bama guys lottery picks?

I keep hearing how it can't happen, but I keep seeing veteran teams win titles.

 

[MbergCat]

That can't be, according to some here none are better even though their record suggest so because, we played a "tougher schedule".

And they are doing this to us without their two best players. Embarrassing that we have fallen this far.

 

[Crawfords Corner]

This game is getting chippy

 

[Son_Of_Saul]

Where's the preachy fans who were condemning us for being critical? This team is not good and did not "turn the corner."

 

[Gassy_Knowls]

Reese should have already got T’d up for that hair choice

Hairdo looks like a triple macchiato from Starbucks

 

[LineSkiCat14]

Were finally getting good gome court officiating.. on a night that it probably won't matter. What a coincidence.

 

[loublue22_rivals308424]

I wouldn't worry, Cal said the team talked it over and this blowout home loss is designed to bring people together

 

[MbergCat]

Especially on the basketball court!

AT RUPP

 

[RunninRichie]

The last time uks offensive style was considered high scoring was when peach baskets were the hoops

 

[jameslee32]

Toppin AND 1!

 

[Runnin'Ramel]

Allen needs to find 7-10 threes per game. Nothing else works. I’d rather him jack contested threes than whatever Brooks is doing.

 

[warrior-cat]

Do these guys realize they're 4-6? Like, they don't have much wriggle room to play like this if they want to somehow make the NCAA tournament.

That would get in the way of them preparing for the NBA. They need march to sharpen their image on facebook and other SJW sites so they can be drafted on social issues instead of ability to play ball.

 

[bigblue1971]

Somebody show me another win on the schedule the next 10-11 games.

 

[sam_o]

Lets go Cats!

 

[Ky_Bred_Cat]

Toppin walked

 

[megablue]

Allen can shoot, but that’s about it.
his footwork is not very good.

 

[ala_kat2]

Tell me Toppin didn’t travel

 

[fatguy87]

Allen

Allen cannot save this team!

Right. It’s about playing optimally to maximize our win percentage. Allen shooting a 3 is one of the best shots we can get so we ought to be generating them.

 

[LmdCat]

Brooks is a complete train wreck.

This is what one week of Cal will do to you. It isn't by accident that he played better in his first game back than he is now.

 

[Fancatstik]

LOL how many steps did Toppin take? Toppin was hoppin

 

[Cat_Man_Blue]

I have pretty much lost interest in UK basketball. I just quit watching this game and I do that a lot lately. There was a time I would have never stopped watching a UK game.

 

[philstat]

Toppin walked...

 

[RunninRichie]

lol

 

[RoyKent]

Is more turnovers than baskets made good or bad? Asking for a friend.

 

[richbrookstomato]

I thought Allen couldn't play defense????

He just stripped the bal that led to a layup and ONE!!

 

[jameslee32]

Cant stay in front of the driver.

 

[Kingslayer07]

lol that wasn’t even close to a foul

 

[TankedCat]

this score is embarrassing

 

[Crawfords Corner]

Topping playing defense with his hands and not his feet.

 

[Cats192]

Can’t stop lay-up’s. Can’t stop 3’s.

 

[fisherscatfan_rivals101526]

Allen can shoot, but that’s about it.
his footwork is not very good.

Agree but Cal won’t play to his strength.

 

[kyjeff1]

Yeah and they are making layups now.

Which is exactly whst I said they would do. Don't blame me because our freshmen don’t know how to play every possession at this level.

I don’t want this NBA first system, Cal did this.

 

[megablue]

We cannot guard them off the dribble.
bottom line

 

[philstat]

WHY do our players move out of the lane, every time, parting the read sea.

 

[RACdad]

Zone

 

[mhroe1984]

Wouldn't it be cool if we ran set plays for our best shooter(s)?

but how's that gonna get BJ drafted?

 

[SmedMoley]

Can’t believe we’re laying a ****en egg tonight

I can.

Shackleford eating us alive
