The Cats won in every statistical category but FG shooting.
The 3 starting guards shot a combined 30% from the field. Typically it is the two freshman guards taking to many bad shots that cost Kentucky the game.
Everybody wants to blame the bigs, but they only took 11 shots and hit 4 or 5 of them. That is excluding Willis who had a great game but only shot 4/10 himself. Having said that Lee could help himself by being more aggressive and hitting the boards. I think Poythress is doing fine considering that he is the 4th or 5th scoring option as far as Murray and Briscoe are concerned. It must be discouraging to work your ass off but have little confidence that your teammates are going to find you.
Murray never looks for a big, he though leading the team in scoring is costing this team just as much as helping this team, the key word being team. He never takes a "good shot".
He was 8/22.
Willis does a better job then Murray or Briscoe looking down low.
I have nothing bad to say about Ulis, he is a special player and plays with more heart then anyone on the team.
They are shooting about 34% for the season if the don't improve that number, March will be a short trip.
