Hate when he takes the air out of the ball. The players seem to over think things instead of just reacting.
Exactly. These guys shine when they play hard. This slow down stuff takes them out of their game....every.... freaking....time. I can't believe he doesn't see it.he should just look at the net score every time this goes in effect.

There's no justifiable reason to slow it down. Keep pouring it on them. The strategy makes a lot more sense in football. Cal has cost himself several games with this junk.

I can’t believe with the season we have had that there is a thread complaining about a blowout road win against a top 20 team.
You can’t? New around here? My god, we just roasted them in their own place for our first ranked team win and we didn’t beat em by 40 and it’s a problem. This season? My god some of you get a grasp on reality.

Cal didn’t slow down anything. We just couldn’t hit a shot and still won by 15. Smh

UK was up by 20 with under 10 mins left, so you run clock. It’s not as much fun to watch, but it helps seal the win.

I was referring to before that. I agree once you hit 10 min up by that much, before that, you're just begging to let them back in it.

Part of that grind in this game was “I’m smoking my friend and not going to make it worse for him.” Barnes would have done the same thing.
