Well, I mean, we can actually. We're not even trying to guard them. It’s like we are totally unaware of their 3 point shooting abilities.

19 to 8 run yikes that sucks on our part.
Up hill battle to craw
Bunch of crap not making an adjustment.
Can not guard the ball at all tonight. Just leave the 3 point line open I guess for the rest of the game HELL why not.

I still can't believe how Pastner and GT ran us off the court.
We did this intentionally, for a big second half comeback, get the popcorn ready, **** is about to go down!

They're not hitting nothing but uncontested 3s. Some were very wide open, yes. But they're hitting seemingly everything.
Lets see.... he taught them how to hit 3s. That is a deadly combination. We know how to shoot but we haven't figured out the hitting part yet.
The amount of open threes they had is mind boggling
Allen’s travel made me laugh out loud. That was 4th grade level garbage. WTF.
I guess We are just gonna watch Bama shoot threes all night. Just getting a finger up on there shots. Pretty pathetic.
I mean did they not realize that's what Bama does is shoot the 3? But yet we didn't even try to guard it.
Just for the record ... Dontaie Allen is the leading rebounder for U.K. in the first half, with 5, and is tied with Askew for leading scorer for U.K. in the first half, with 8 points.
When you hit around 10 three point shots in the first half you don't need to outrebound or get on the FT line.
Well, they blew UT out doing that. If you can't stop it, why would they do anything else?
We haven't even tried to take their 3 point shooters away, if we do, they'll just drive by us.
lol that’s funny. He might run a 2-3 for about 4 possessions before his stubborn *** goes back to man.
Allen also leads the team in rebounds with five.
His turnovers didn’t help, but he did far more to make up for his negative players than other guys did.
Spread floor
Breakdown off the bounce
If not, reverse ball

Help comes
Kick out for 3
that’s how they are kicking our ***. they are basically a 5 out team. they have ran a couple cross screens for the post but they aren’t doing anything complex. we just can’t guard the basketball
We can either keep our man in front or stop helping. Those are the only two options
Thats what this is. Alabama is playing extremely well. Honestly, this is, so far, one of the better performances we've seen from an opposing team in a while, IMO. Almost everything they are doing, on point. Shooting, passing, no mistakes, superb defense. And its not like the SEC is giving them a ton of FTs either.. 2. And they missed both.
I dont even think were playing that bad. A lot more passing.. and smarter passing. More ball movement. Less selfish play for the most part. Sure, defense needs work, and we need to start making these 1 foot shots (although how many times was Alabama drapped over our guy?)
But I dont think Kentucky was ready for a team like this. Alabama will be ranked come Monday, FWIW. Im very surprised at how good they are.
I think Allen walked because he was about to pass and his man cut behind a de, fender.
I think we're playing pretty bad. Mintz was trying to trade 3's there for a bit, they aren't getting Sarr involved on the interior and Brooks could be taking better shots

Sad thing is, they blow by us straight to the goal when we belly-up to prevent the three.
I concur with the posters saying we need to run more plays for Allen. When you have a money shooter like that, that’s your best offensive threat.
Come on man he does not make the big coin to watch and scout film on opposing teams.
Not everyone slumps at the same time so, not all of them were the shooters we were lead to believe they were. Hype?
Everybody in the country has found out the way to beat UK is by exploiting their switch everything D, except Cal.
Our help defense just isn't working tonight. When a guy rotates over to help, open three.
Whoever else said it is right, make them beat us with layups. Stay right on top of them. And hope the refs call it somewhat fairly because they're not playing their best game tonight either.
Bama’s offense has us confused!
We see nothing like it in practice because we have only one guy that can make them

gotta take the good with some bad I guess. If he’s not on the court the opponent D literally has nobody to worry about shooting the 3.
