Your best five is not your best five if they are on the bench. Screw the analytics and put the best players on the floor and let them play.
A win is a win but…
- Thread starter otis-gip
- Start date
Ok coach. 😂
One was hurt and one was fouled out. Hard to put the best five on the floor at that point. It worked out and we won. Not easy to do on the road in the SEC
it definitely shows when the lineup changes every 3 minutes
He's right. No clue why some of you fans watch the game, see the nonsense subbing, then we win and act like nothing we just saw matters.
Loved the play after the time out but where was the offense the 2nd half?? Just standing watching oweh carry us, a little concerning cause that’s not going to win in March.
Butler and Williams were in foul trouble, Robinson out hurt, Almonor couldn't guard anybody so hardly played. Who WERE we supposed to be playing?
If you look at the game thread, Oweh would have been benched. LoL!
I know we won but some of Pope's substitution cost us the lead in the second half
What were the best players that was on the bench? Robinson that was hurt coming in and re-injures his wrist? Butler that was hurt coming in and Pope was being careful with him until he fouled out? Oweh balled out and the Cats won on the road against a quality opponent.
Grasping for straws here.
Not just a quality team but a desperate for a win team at home.
More fun for the critics to whine than enjoy the win. But you are correct
A win is a win . Period .
No moral losses just like there are no moral victories.

To be fair, you’re the most emotional and sporadic poster on here. You mostly skew negative. So don’t lecture people for not crying enough. We stole one. Stop trying to give the loot back
Yep! They don’t ask how at the end of games, just how many! And we had one more than they did!😂 that’s all that matters right now!
Butler and Robinson got some rust out and UK won despite a very sloppy game. Onto the next pull off another win against top 5 team and it would be remarkable season with all of the injuries.
Butler fouled out and Jaxson Robinson got injured. We maxed out their minutes.
Oweh played 32 minutes and Brea played 35. Perry and Chandler played minutes out of shear necessity, basically.
Garrison played a few minutes that would have otherwise went to Carr or Almonor at the 4.

Whatever you say man. I talk about whatever is happening, Maybe the negative stands out more but I'm just chatting.
IMO he sat Carr to much. He took him out in when he started to play good.
Does talking about things the team/coaching staff do well or could do better matter? What a concept on a message board. They should just close this site on the days we win.
I’ll take my chances with ball movement and cuts with screens on and off the ball, standing around watching one guy get to the rim at will doesn’t win more than one game in the ncaa.
I agree with this but at the end Pope had Garrison and Williams in the game. With Garrison playing so well tonight, he took minutes away from Carr tonight. And in my opinion, if Carr was in at the end. UK may have lost. Garrison had a huge block the last play.
