Kentucky 3-2

He seems like an easy guy to hate.

 

That shot off the side of the backboard was all time

 

I was in it from the beginning. Can't stand that shit stain.

 

I have long suspected that is something UK and Duke look for in players.

 

Don't know if this was said, but all the talk about Washington not playing much from UK fans is bullshit. He played 30 minutes. That is only 2 less than Grant Williams.

 

Bowden and Bone locked Herro down. That’s the kind of defense we played last season.

 

Antoine Walker said that Reid’s absence was the difference in the game.

Why do they let these former Wildcats and Blue Devils on TV?

 

Alexander with 0 pts. We basically didnt have him. Call it even

 

About 4 and a half of those fouls called on him were completely ridiculous.

 

Hes going straight up for balls, first one to it but gets called.
Yet Grant is getting hip checked as he goes up for rebounds or undercut by Ky for 2 games and ref cant see it

 

Get him season tickets.

 

Florida too. Matt Walsh, Teddy Dupay, Joakim Noah, David Lee, etc.

 

Calipari said the exact opposite.

 

The guy's senior season is being taken away by refs. He's in some kind of psychological test to see when he finally snaps and goes off on an official. And we are getting close.

 

He didn’t score but he probably had as effective a 12 minutes as he’s had

 

Few thoughts from rewatching this morning.

1. I knew bone played well, but that is the best game i remember by a UT point guard in, well, my life. He plays close to that this month and wr have a chance.

2. Fulky did exactly what he needs to do. Played a great game even if running the break with Bone was even funnier the second time around.

3. Good quality minutes from Walker. Caused a couple of over the backs and had a couple of other plays.

4. We still didn't play great. We can be better. Got to have more out of turner and bowden.

5. Pons played well. Amazing hes the highest rated player out of high school on team.

Huge win. Swagger seems back. Take c care of business Tuesday and hope the gators stay hot.

 

My only gripe was forcing a few possessions early, and missing the front end of some one and one situations in the first half. We could/should have pushed it to a 15-point margin in that 8:00 - 4:00 mark in the first half when Washington went out, but the defense made up for it every time.

 

not sure how rankings work with pons playing in France. Seems their basketball talent wouldn't be comparable to Memphis, Chicago, cali, DC, NY, atlanta, etc and no aau games here to measure.
