Poythress hits a 3.

 

[zannmann]

That was an oh no Alex don't shoot that...,.,.YES IT GOES IN!!!!

 

[TheBigBlueSpectacle]

Course Kentucky starts standing in front of their guy and it becomes automatic blocking fouls

 

[jameslee32]

Alex my man!!!

 

[Lefty_O'Brian]

We could be stretching a lead if we would stop the penetration

 

[hotelblue]

been waiting all year for poythress to hit that shot. but he won't take more than one a game so it's been difficult lol. i give him credit he waits until he's open and it happens once a game.

 

[UKWildcats#8]

If Poy can hit corner 3s at a decent clip...

I'd give that about as much chance of happening as Skal becoming a rebounding machine.

 

[UK till Death]

Get Hawkins out

 

[hotelblue]

our guys are starting to get a little annoyed by the quick whistle.

 

[Bkocats]

O M G Ulis to Poy

 

[FlCATFan_rivals26961]

I really want Ulis to get his chance in the Pros. But gosh I'd love to have him as a Cat for another year.

 

[WildMoon]

[Bkocats]

[zannmann]

Poythress is on FIRE!!!!

 

[Kycatspaws]

[KyFord]

Wow Alex

 

[Drcatfan]

My god Ulis is playing phenomenal!!!

 

[Saven]

That was such a beautiful play.

 

[jameslee32]

Alex es en fuego!!! :fire:

 

[Comebakatz3]

Just stop. No. Ask any coach.

It's simple. Put yourself in the best situation to make the shot. Ulis was not in the best situation. He couldn't use the rim to protect his shot and he was not at a proper angle to find a trailer. Odds were good that he was going to get blocked, and he knew it. So, he could do what he did and put up a crazy shot hoping that we get a rebound or that it luckily goes in, he could have done a jump stop and waited for Seldon to fly past, or he could have kept his dribble, pulled it out to the short corner to hit the trailer or hit a jumper from there. Ask any coach and they will tell you that they want you to shoot the shot that has the highest probability of going in. If you're that worried about getting blocked then don't shoot that shot.

By the way, Ulis just pulled it out on a fast break. In that one he didn't have the numbers so he stopped and set up a play where he got fouled.

 

[LineSkiCat14]

It'll be a tie gme.. AT WORST.. At the half.. What more can you ask for?

 

[Bkocats]

wow - 12 point swing

 

[Kycatspaws]

Alex Poythress is on fire. He's got nine points.

 

[Saguaro Cat]

You dirty ****** that gave up already can exit to the left.

The cowards usually do when we take the lead. They only come out from under the bed when we fall behind. With luck, we don't see them again for the rest of the night.

 

[loublue22_rivals308424]
