FOH clown. Don't run your mouth to players if you don't want them to come back at you. Where do you goofs come from where you talk **** about someone then expect them to ne quiet and take it. Again, typical raftards.
Ware's Comment
- Thread starter AllBall
- Start date
Thank you both for your service. Can't imagine the stuff you and @USMC Cat have been through.
Lance can say what he wants. No problem with that. But let's be honest, he will in no way be a reason why we will potentially make a deep run in March. However, if Cal plays him too much down the stretch (which I don't think he will) he could very well be a reason we are sent home early again.
And this isn't a knock on the guy, just the reality of his limitations as a player.

You are probably correct. I have never used twitter and most likely never will.
He’s just repeating what his coach said to him. Ware doesn’t have enough life experience to know his statement isn’t true. And the game like that comment. That’s demeaning to every one of us who have competed at a high level. It may not have been for uk basketball but many of us have been in similar situations. I’ve been pretty nice about ware because he has developed at UK from day one so I’ve given him more grace than most but this is a game changer. It puts him into a keion brooks role now. Lecturing the fans. Listen if we didn’t have these fans lance you wouldn’t have an opportunity to play at the level. These guys think to highly of themselves and look down on who puts them there. It’s all on cal bc that’s how he’s acted toward bbn for several years now. And he had the audacity to lecture oscar on humility after msu. You can’t make this crap up.
I agree with the kid on a certain level but that being said I do think some go a bit overboard with certain comments but fans have every right to criticize Cal and some of his in game coaching decisions and poor game preparations.
If the fans opinions are insignificant, why does Lance care? Or why do you?
Because deep down inside Lance, like you, KNOWS the criticisms are correct. When he score 12 points and gets ONLY 3 rebounds against an 0-6 D2 school, it makes him look even worse using that performance as justification for the team’s and his PISS POOR performance down the stretch against Mich. St.
I in NO WAY think that ANY fan should direct message ANY UK player on social media to denigrate them. However, this board is NOT the same. Lance needs to realize that when he lumps together the WORST of our fans with the best, he is actually doing something EQUALLY as bad as what he is complaining about.
You must 86 minimum. Running your mouth about players then acting like a victim. You clowns are a joke.
The idea of anyone on this cesspool of negativity being offended by a "snide" remark is laughable.
Nuh uh.....you're not allowed to say that. Only cheerleaders allowed according to the jock sniffers on here.
Who’s offended??? I think it’s a joke for him to think he has suddenly arrived and created an AHA moment for a 12 pt 3 rebound performance against the one of the WORST teams in college basketball.
Forgive us for expecting us to play better down the stretch against an unranked Mich St team and ACTUALLY beat them.
I think it’s hilarious that Lance thinks his opinion means as much as he thinks it does.
Ware is just not a very good basketball player right now.Sorry if that hurts his feelings but it's the truth.
He's oly 18, 19, 20 years old. Let him say what he wants. We can live with it.
Then let him go out against the Zags and put those numbers up or try to better them. Don’t use South Carolina St. as his vindication. That’s ridiculous.
Use the criticism as motivation to play better when it actually matters.
If you're too stupid to grasp basic English, thats on you. Typical for a lowlife who likes talking **** about college kids.Is there an English for this? Mad little child can't type its so angry....
He's commenting on the moronic knowitalls criticism of his teammates, not the game.
Lance has a right to say stupid things just like you, Ed, HH, kyASSfan, etc. I won’t deny that. But Lance also goes first class and FREE to the Bahamas, stays at the finest hotels, eats the finest food, flies around the globe, is worshipped by hundreds of thousand BBN fans etc. Doesn’t spend a penny. Not to mention the free education and more free clothes and athletic gear than he could ever wear. Then, after that he’ll make millions of dollars playing a game if someone is dumb enough to pay him. All this for a KID that can’t hit a jump shot or make a free throw if his life depended on it. I no longer play competitive bball but I promise I can still make 7-8 of 10 free throws and he can’t touch that. Maybe he should practice the game that gives him the lavish lifestyle he lives instead of working on his hair and running his mouth. But he absolutely has a right to say how he feels just like the rest of us.Sure, I understand you're hyperbolic.
Most of you are unathletic (fat) slobs who didn't play. Maybe not all, but most. But that really isn't relevant. Because regardless of whether you used to play ball or not, I guarantee none of you played it at this level or dealt with the **** our players do. So you have no idea what it's like, even if you played on your jv team or whatever.
PS- I’m not an unathletic fat slob.
Could have ended the thread with this post. We’ve all vented on an anonymous message board. But tagging or tweeting at a player makes you a freaking lunatic.
I just started a verified Ware Twitter account with an 8 dollar check mark.
I’m about to be brutally honest about myself and discuss what I need to do to be a better basketball player. Also going to discuss Calipari and the team, and what hes doing wrong that isn’t helping.
Y’all follow me.
None of that rambling gives you an unfettered right to talk trash to someone. Certainly doesn't prevent them from saying **** back.
Nothing Lance or any othet player gets is "free". They put in the work the get where they are, and then put in a hell of a lot more in practice and conditioning all year. They also don't stay at the finest places or eat the finest foods. They stay in nice places, typically places many of the fans stay as well. They eat at nice places that many of the same fans eat as well.
I would say he practices it plenty. If he had a bigger role, he would likely put up bigger numbers.
I doubt you ever played competitive ball besides some middle school or high school team. That's essentially YMCA ball with refs.
I will say this Ware sounds like a baby and what he needs to do is focus on learning some kind of skill other than smiling and running around. That’s truth.
Also if you try and contact players directly, while I don’t see why they care (should be above caring) you’re stupid. In public please behave yourselves and have some class.

You really haven't watched Lance play have you?
Haha! I totally agree. Just like it's ok to crap all over the coach but get upset when he makes any kind of snarky comment to the press about the fans. Truth is, we're spoiled brats. We act like it regularly. We don't appreciate what we have. We want wins above all else, and that is part of what makes this program the greatest in history. But the other side of that is we feel entitled to wins and pout, whine, cuss, and go on drunken rants when the team doesn't perform to perfection.
So, Ware has been around this block a few times. He's received his share of criticism and he's defending his teammates here as well. So I have ZERO problem with him making comments. Anyone here who has problems with his comments would be total hypocrites.
You're talking to Baller Cal. So I wouldn't put too much into it
I see it differently. Ware is not good enough to just shoot back. That’s what his mindset should be. I don’t like people acting classless in public to players, that’s what rafters is for. But Ware needs to use criticism and become a better basketball player. Coaches used to tell players not to respond to this kind of stuff for a reason.
This day and age we’ve lost certain elements that were so useful years ago. Everyone is just mouthy now. Ware just isn’t good enough in this sport to smile and shoot on Twitter. Use it for fuel and get better.
But people condone this type of player response without thinking hey, Ware just made excuses for being a pretty lackluster basketball player. Who does that help? Nobody.
And yes we expect Kentucky to perform to Kentucky standards. I don’t think some of you listen to yourselves. Calipari has really damaged some of our fans. With the mouthy rants from players, even Calipari’s family members, and Calipari, the guy just wants fights and his people under him in all forms mirror his image. It’s a really bad look most of the time.
Lmao. Congrats on your 70% free throw shooting in your driveway. What an asinine post. You don't think he is practicing his *** off with the team everyday trying to get better? Lance gets all those things you mentioned because he has worked his whole life for them and he has a skill set and God given ability that you and I don't have. Why are we berating a kid who has accomplished his goals and earned a free trip to the Bahamas and free education and all of the other stuff you mentioned? He doesn't need to score 15 points a game to contribute to the success of this team. He needs to play defense, rebound, hustle, get put backs, and use his 5 fouls. We have elite scorers and he doesn't have to be one of them to make an impact.
We should be building these kids up instead of ripping them apart for not meeting the unrealistic expectations that most people put on them. I, for one, am excited to see what he can do moving forward and how he can contribute to this team.
Not true but whatever flips your switch. You’re pathetic. Probably unathletic and fat too
.Cal has created this culture of making excuses and being more upset at hurt feelings than of actually losing a game.We can't take a kid's heart.
Yea I mean if you listen to a lot of his players nowadays, Calipari himself, and his cult fans, they do nothing but make excuses and throw attacks. They have no substance.
Of all the stupid sh*t you just said only one thing is valid. That’s when you ask why ‘we are berating a kid etc’. So I’ll answer that for you. I’m berating him for saying that stupid sh*t about the fans. Most of BBN worship all UK athletes in all UK sports. I’m not a kid so I don’t worship them like I did when I was a young boy cheering for them and asking for their autograph but I still support all UK sports. Lance was actually one of my favorite players until he said that garbage and made a fool out of himself.
Not good enough to shoot back at a bunch of pathetic losers? LOL. Brenan Canada is good enough to shoot back at trash fans who @ players and talk ****.
