1 TO this game, but ok. It's not like PJ and everyone is having trouble holding onto the ball.
This one is on Herro

He was terrible shooting and awful on D especially late in the second half and OT. Looked good when he penetrated.
Quade is just giving us nothing. Absolutely zero.

Sorry bud. I didn't see your first post where you said at the rim. The one I quoted just said to the basket. When he lost the one to PJ at the rim it wouldnt count as a turnover. The one where he jumped into the guys chest went straight up in the air so would have counted as a shot. But those are two instances where he didnt finish at the rim.
Like I also said who do you want Quade? Came in two passes right to the other team, a shot hit the bottom of the rm and a foul. 3 TOs, zero ast and 2pts. We will have to go threw the growing pains with the freshman. 4 guys played the same or more than Herro and didn't out score him. It's not like Herro is a top 10 recruit and not playing up to standard. I still like him and see him as being one of the keys to this team, right or wrong. Quade is not an option at all, you talk about liability and zero defense. It was just a game ago everyone was celebrating Herro and his 5 or so steals now everyone saying he can't play D. Most fans here change from one game to the next, that's crazy.
Like I said. I dont know. Quickly was better shooting the ball today but was just as bad defensively. Herro is great at anticipating passing lanes and getting steals. Didnt do that today. He struggles with on the ball defense. His role is to be the shooter and he has failed in that role. I don't think he is the reason we lost the game as other people have said. And I also don't think he is the best player on the team as others have said. You have to play him and hope he starts shooting better. As you said Quade has been terrible. I think you have to run with Hagans and Herro with Quickly as the backup to both.

We’re not a great shooting team, but I don’t think we’ll have many games as bad as today. It felt like we couldn’t throw the ball into the ocean. I don’t think we’ll have a game shooting the ball this bad the rest of the season. Fans still need to be patient.
What and play turnover-machine Green or inconsistent Quickley! No, Herro will be fine!
there are alot of things that are supposed to be done that aren't happening. Herro is eight weeks into his college career.
Umm ...NO. We may have other problems, but he is certainly not "the least" of them.
In an era when perimeter wing play is more important than ever, our starting SG appears to be a really weak perimeter defender and has not been able to hit anything from outside against decent competition.
If that doesn't soon change, its a serious problem, not a "least" one at all.
He had a bad shooting day. But he is the best passer on the team. And as far as missing those 3’s Cal says if you are open and pass the shot up you are coming out. We don’t set any screens and we don’t help the screener set up the screen either! We have so much to learn. I do think Richards was supposed to screen on the last possession and he just took off running down the floor and then remembered too late to get the job done! Still think Cal should have called time out! But he hardly ever does in that situation!
How much are u betting? See my answer to Kev 69 on the complete idiot quote.
We all know he can shoot. We all have seen it.
Patience, grasshopper.
Nope.
or
- Fewer TOs.
- An out of bounds play under our basket.
- Make the players bank those close attempts.
- Stop getting out-hustled.
According to the stats on KSR. Cal's teams have been in a position to tie or win the game late 23 times. He has called time out in that situation 11 times with a positive outcome (win) 4 times vs a success rate of 7 times when no time out is called. So the numbers seem to back Cal's theory of it is better to not call time out
Reading comprehension dude. He did not say he finished every drive he said at the rim. that would indicate he made it to the rim. not that he attempted to get to the rim and didn't make it there. When you lose the ball there is no shot attempt so every time he made it to the rim he finished THE SHOT and didn't clang it off the rim or backboard.
Agree completely—and can you believe the last 2 fouls in that game called on Reid!!? I just wish we’d had the refs that just called the game against UT and Gonzaga. They were good and allowed players to play the game without calling cheap ******** fouls!
Luke Kennard stared off shooting at a clip below what was expected of him and rectified it as his career progressed. If Tyler stays at UK long enough, he may follow a similar arc. I hope he does stay long enough to improve, and that UK can reap the rewards instead of some random GLeague team.
I think many fans, myself included, were hoping for the next Devin Booker, but Tyler is definitely not that.

Have all of you guys forgot how to read?
Look at the stats. They shot 40% plus from three for the game. if someone does that to you, you are beat most likely. This game is on the 2nd half defense beyond the arc. You think anything else lost it you are barking

Could someone translate this sentence from Drunkese to English for me?
But kudos on the first triple straight "you" I've seen.

Cal is doing the same thing to Herro that he did to Knox, Monk and others. They get confused and don't know whether to drive it or shoot it. Kids come here shooting lights out in high school and Cal coaches his only way he knows how, the dribble drive. That combined with having to play defense for the first time in their lives accounts for some L's. It is what it is.
We spend the first 3 months of the season teaching kids how to switch defenders off of pick and rolls. Shooting isn’t taught until February. Come on you guys know this
