******UNC vs UK Official Game Thread******

[RunninRichie]

Has Keion played today? or is he still out with a “calf injury”.

 

[Crawfords Corner]

I was wrong about him. I was wondering why Coach had him in. Now I know.

He had a couple of plays that weren't good, but he kept hustling. Make up for a lot just by working harder than the next guy.

 

[kyjeff1]

You just know that the stripes are going to let Brooks absolutely do anything he wants in the second half without blowing the whistle.

Time to get our wings to drive the ball at him to get him in foul trouble

He's out. Only 1 guy hasn't played today.

Allen must really suck at defense

 

[RunninRichie]

Brooks looks ******* goofy with the super specs.

 

[germuk]

I was wrong about him. I was wondering why Coach had him in. Now I know.

He outplayed Evan Mobley in a head to head matchup last year. He has a great motor but he plays a little too fast sometimes and got too excited on his scores that he didn’t get back on defense. Nothing that time can’t fix. He should be a good player as he gets more game experience

 

[Blue Bigfoot]

Props to Ware, and Askew.
Really stepping up today.

 

[UK_fan_41102]

We are up 4 and Sarr is scoreless. UNREAL !!

The odds of UK winning are better with him on the court than not.

 

[kyjeff1]

We really need this game. The refs need to stay out of the outcome.

 

[armchairpg]

And it's why Cal hates it. Every time he uses a zone, the opponent gets three points immediately.

True. That said, when he went to it that late I thought it was a good move because unc had to adjust. Didn’t pan out but it was a thought.

 

[RunninRichie]

If Sarr and Clarke get going UK wins.

 

[gbl97]

Not sure Sarr is tough enough for this matchup. We'll see if he's ready to battle the second half.

 

[chattanoogawildcat]

Yup Clarke and Boston played selfish

We have 5 assists and Boston has 2 of them.

 

[mdlUK.1]

The refs must love covid. They can make all the terrible calls they want with no one but one coach screaming at them. I hate refs!

 

[howercat]

Cats bigs got hosed on several calls in first half, not as bad as rooferee game, but pretty bad.

 

[gbl97]

Half our turnovers are travels on shot fakes.

 

[yabbadabbadoo_rivals213851]

I like the added pressure today. Our length and aggressiveness had made us appear a little better today.

 

[Crawfords Corner]

The first call of the game....wtf was that. UNC guy goes over the back and UK gets called for a foul lmao. Its so bad its comical.

 

[armchairpg]

Maybe this team’s identity is junkyard dog. If they embrace that, maybe they take a step forward.

 

[kyjeff1]

True. That said, when he went to it that late I thought it was a good move because unc had to adjust. Didn’t pan out but it was a thought.

Yeah, that trick always seems to work against us. Unc has veteran guys that know what to do in that situation but this is why Cal hates going zone. 100% of the time, the opponent gets 3

 

[howercat]

Half our turnovers are travels on shot fakes.

That's one of those bs calls stripes love to call against the cats. Ball leaves hand a split second before the pivot foot comes up, but its so close they call it a walk.

 

[RunninRichie]

Anybody else notice the huge influx in “offensive fouls” this year? seems like they’d never get called in previous years.

 

[Oneandnotdone38]

I don't think I've ever seen Cal let two guys go iso as much as Clarke and Boston have. Maybe Monk and Murray.

But Cal usually doesn't like that.

Even Raftery thought it was on Brooks

[blackcat714]

Like way cats came back after turdhills took lead we got a chance it seems just dont turn ball over

 

[kyjeff1]

Both players tripped… .foul on UK

 

[Thunder Mash]

Three fouls in just under 30 seconds.

 

[Crawfords Corner]

2nd time Cats don't protect the basket on an inbounds

 

[gbl97]

Baseline out of bounds plays can add some points.

 

[CELTICAT]

Boston JFC

 

[kyjeff1]

3 fouls on us already.

Boston has to stop trying to be a hero.

 

[UK_fan_41102]

Jackson with a silly foul.

 

[blackcat714]

Boston shot out of flow needs to slow his roll

 

[megablue]

Our inbounds defense is pathetic !!

 

[richbrookstomato]

2 STUPID fouls from Mintz and Jackson.

 

[UKChamps2012]

How many times can you get beat on an inbounds play!!

 

[ala_kat2]

UNC sure falling down easily drawing cheap fouls

 

[RunninRichie]

Mintz open in corner and boston takes a contested fadeaway

 

[kyjeff1]

We just make too many damn mistakes
