I get the excuse that the other team is more athletic, faster, all that…

But what I don’t get , playing defense with your hands hanging down , even in zone, I don’t get how Brea , Jr, Carr for a 3 point shooter seems to close in always after the ball is released. Why even bother , just to show Coach you are trying? That’s not good for freshman high school team.

Not talking about on ball defense , a concept that no one besides Butler and Oweh can do….

Also , For a team that plays doing a lot of cuts we should be familiar with defending it from practice. Our guys let guys blow by them because they turn their head.

If you are big and 7 footer why go for fakes when the offensive big you are guarding is outside of paint?

Finally, has Calipari drained all the blood from the installation for our boys? What’s going?

Watching Pitino at UK, one of 2 things would happen when he did full court press.....get a steal or the opponent would call a time out.

This UK team even struggles to put a hand up defensively. Blows my mind

Shooters look for hands down by the knees and they know they have time to get a good shot off.
