Bucknell is isolating Brea. His defense is lacking. But that’s the trade off for his 3 pt stroke.

They are playing sloppy and up 19 in the 2nd game of the year. We are fine.
I know Pope wants everyone to be ultra confident, but Butler and Garrison should not have a green light from deep. In Butler’s case, if he hasn’t been at least a decent to good perimeter shooter in four years of college hoops, it’s not gonna happen this year. Im skeptical of Oweh as well. However, all three of those guys bring some very valuable skills to the team other than perimeter shooting.
Duh if butler isn’t hitting then Kerr plays. It’s pretty simple.
I love the ball movement with this team vs one player dribbling around the top of the key then driving to the basket and tossing up a prayer.
Couple of give away possession's. More than a few. Need to tighten things up in this game. cmon now, cats !
clean this up !
clean this up !
Maybe looking ahead to Tuesday a little but still up double digits.
No midrange is an oversimplification but I think a guy as athletic as Oweh, also not a great shooter, should pretty much always use space in the midrange to get a head of steam going towards the basket.

His on-ball defense keeps him on the court.
They're also drawing two defenders, and we're not recovering to defend the three.
I said it last game but Kerr is an assist machine.
I hear what you’re saying and I get it, but teams that shoot poorly and still score 50 points a half don’t lose many games in college basketball.
So nice to have a guy like Brea who can just shut up any teams' fans if they hit a big basket at home against us. Dude can just flat out shoot it.
Good half in spurts, but 31 points to this bucknell team isn’t great
A lot of things to clean up from the first half.
Ugly half. Gotta be much, much better. We aren’t beating Duke playing like this.
Correct take. He can’t shoot, he can’t win 1vs1 consistently, and he misses layups
Duke looked bad in the first half of both of their games to
I think they are looking just a little bit ahead for Tuesday night. Lol
I completely agree with you brother. He’s got to h it open shots and finish in the lane or the defense will start leaving him and doubling our shooters.
I think Almonor played some at center when Williams was hurt in the exhibition game. I would like to see Carr get some minutes too in case we have foul trouble.
UK fans are the quickest to overreact. Gotta love it.
Cal ruined most of yall.

Bucknell is a good team, even tho they don’t have great size inside. Their defense is forcing us to take contested shots which we are missing too often.
Once again that’s why we got Kerr. That’s the part of having a complete team. One players weakness is another strengths.
Well Bass did say Cal ruined y’all and that is who was the coach the last two years lol
