Or maybe because Kentucky lets teams get 3s with nobody within 10 feet of the guy, and actively lets teams get good looks off all game

At some point it’s you and not outside reasons. Every problem Kentucky has it because of itselfMaybe because our defense makes it so easy for them to shot those shots.
Maybe because our guards are being asked to slack off their man to help out with big men who aren't very good. Now they are left scrambling. Nah that can't be it coach. Nevermind.
It really seems like some of these guys are just awful on ball defenders. It almost feels like if the opponent just dribbles around for enough time they'll be able to beat anyone of our guys off the dribble because they just break down defensively.Probably because there's no one on this team that could guard anyone in a phone booth.
I noticed that too. Too many double teams on guys in the paint and then our guards running back to close out on a 3, but it's too late.
The thing is.. is that coaching instruction or players biting too often for a double team or a steal?
I mean our bigs are still decent, and we have a lot of size. Is Cal really what worried about them that he wants our guards to cave in on the paint so much? Idk..
At least he’s got that part figured outCalipari: ''When the other team scorers more points than you, you lose''.
Damn he’s quite the philosopherCalipari: ''When the other team scores more points than you, you lose''.
Lol the quotes not real just poking fun at Calipari.Damn he’s quite the philosopher
I'm guessing a little of both. One of the reasons we love Reed so much is how he's always swiping at the ball and picks up some great steals. Part of why he gets those steals is because he's gambling a bit and selling out to get them. Looks like a great play when it works, not so much when it leaves his guy open for a 3. And it's not just him that does it.The thing is.. is that coaching instruction or players biting too often for a double team or a steal?

He has guards help out in the post. They aren't helping. They stand 10 ft from their man in the corner. Or more. Nobody can recover that far. It's like shooting in a game of Horse.

It's been happening all season. Im gonna say they are being coached to do that.
Yes!This teams 3 pt defense is hope they miss.
Pitino double teamed a lot, but never gave up the wide open 3 point shot like thisI noticed that too. Too many double teams on guys in the paint and then our guards running back to close out on a 3, but it's too late.

Disclaimer, we are not good at defense. That said, go back and watch the near logo shot that Meechie made followed by the insane step back 3 from Cooper to beat the shot clock at 11:30 mark of the 2nd half. Those are 2 prime examples of what Cal is talking about and honestly it pisses me off too. You can bitch about our defense, I do too. But they aren’t hitting those against other teams. It’s a tale as old as time. Watch any other South Carolina game, I have. They’re not trying this hard and they’re not hitting this level of difficulty of shots. Even on shots where we leave them open, they still shoot way above their average. They miss wide open ones against other teams. Im sure the scouting report says they suck at 3s. Cal has to realize this is uk. Teams don’t miss against us. Watch their next game and place money on them to lose and not shoot well. You’ll be glad you did.

Yeah those 2 are outliers but Kentucky literally leaves guys wide openDisclaimer, we are not good at defense.

He can still recruit which is 70-75% of coaching. Just shows you how absolutely terrible he is as a bench coach.Cal’s washed and needs to retire.
It’s getting embarrassing at this point.
What an imbecile. That is why you look at tapes.

To be fair, Mitchell DID guard someone inside a phone booth (excuse me, “cylinder”) and his chin fouled the guy’s elbow lol. Instead of FTs and the ball, USCJr gets the ball and promptly drains a 3 lol.Probably because there's no one on this team that could guard anyone in a phone booth.
