Team Gives Poythress Like Effort

That is all...

Poythress is now rich

You think the majority of these players won’t be?

 

[Nubb16]

I’d gladly take poythrees on this team

That is still in question, depends on the currency. What is the Croatia to US exchange rate.

I thought our guys played their asses off. Effort wasn’t an issue.

Look, Tennessee is really good. We damn near beat them. It’s all good.

Agreed with OP. But, that's a component of Calipari's teams. They just haven't played hard nosed basketball. They rely on talent which usually wins given the NBA roster.

They always play hard. We can't consistently make shots.

I actually think the concept of positionless basketball is killing us. We make mistakes but it usually awareness not effort. Kids trying to do things they aren’t capable of because they want to be Dramond Green. PJ should rarely take jump shots, Knox should spend a lot of time banging in the paint. Diallo should be like MKG and be a defender and rebound but all of them think they are Durant.

Overall, I was satisfied with the effort, however, four lazy plays, along with a couple of bad calls, cost us this game. The four lazy plays were run outs for dunks, when we would not hustle back and play defense. 8 pts on those four plays. Do the math.
