I get the Wheeler hate but............not tonight lol.

 

[CincyUKFan]

I keep asking you to tell us with Wheeler as our PG we're going to make a deep tourney run.

You never do

We won’t make a deep run. But he’ll have 10 assists when we lose and it won’t be his fault 🤣

 

[TankedCat]

We have to get through the regular season before worrying about a deep run anywhere.

so you still can't do it

 

[crawfords corner]

Well, keep doing what you're doing CC, it's working.

I wish I had that kind of pull on the universe.

 

[kyjeff1]

LSU set up a nice elevator door screen there. I wish Cal would do that.
Billy Donovan used to do that at Florida, he killed us with it quite often.

 

[Ukgold]

Lets go cats!!!

 

[The_Answer1313]

Whatever. Whenever we use a deeper bench I have to see Lance Ware

I do not want to see Lance Ware lol

 

[gharding07]

Wheeler has been good tonight, but on his 4-5 turnovers a game, he needs to ask himself if the play looks ridiculous let’s pull the ball back out

Averages only 2.3 turnovers a game.

 

[Catluv]

So far this is the best we have looked all year!!

 

[megablue]

7 assists 2 TO. You guys are unbelievable

His on-ball defensive pressure has been excellent. I do not recall his man scoring tonight. If so, very rarely.

 

[kywildcat41086]

Like seeing Toppin be consistent 2 games in a row that’s what we need out of him

 

[bbncal02]

I just realized..should we win decisively tonight “they” will be back

We’ve got work to do. But at least we’re trying. I can live with that.

 

[katwest]

Somebody is pushing Wheeler off all the way down the court with the ref watching, no call, WTH?

 

[TriCountyCat]

He hasn't had a TO until then, he's played a great game. Man you haters are incredible.

I agree he has played OK tonight but in my opinion, he is our weakest link. Particularly when it comes to advancing into the postseason. So yes, I am a hater.

 

[kennyskywalker34]

Have we gone to the bench this half? Cal just going to play 5 dudes every game? Reeves and Collins only dudes to come off bench, and they haven’t played much.

Setting up the excuse for the inevitable March loss.
Our legs were gone. I should have used the bench more. But I forgot about them.

 

[the nail at the foul line]

This game makes me want to go to Omaha and eat spam.

 

[MidseasonTweak]

Have we gone to the bench this half? Cal just going to play 5 dudes every game? Reeves and Collins only dudes to come off bench, and they haven’t played much.

A little too tight on the rotation. That said, I have preferred the consistency instead of the whacky lineups.

 

[CincyUKFan]

Wheeler and Toppin are playing their asses off tonight.

They tend to occasionally do that when we play weak competition.

 

[The_Answer1313]

I feel like we've been on commericial for 20 mins now lol

 

[LmdCat]

One of the best things to happen to this team for this season was some of Cal's peers question his lack of offense. At least it looks like he is trying to run something that his players understand.

 

[BBUK]

Going to 4 next week

Cal's an innovator...

 

[bbncal02]

His on-ball defensive pressure has been excellent. I do not recall his man scoring tonight. If so, very rarely.

Wheeler has two huge threes.

 

[JonathanW]

Wheeler has been good tonight, but on his 4-5 turnovers a game, he needs to ask himself if the play looks ridiculous let’s pull the ball back out

He has dropped TOs this year to below 2.5 per game

 

[Dontworryboutit23]

He has dropped TOs this year to below 2.5 per game

He has been much better, it’s just the 2-3 turnovers he have come at terrible times

 

[LmdCat]

They tend to occasionally do that when we play weak competition.

Weak competition as in weak posters and haters.

 

[TankedCat]

nothing like looking halfway decent in January at home against an unranked team to restore hope

 

[Dontworryboutit23]

Averages only 2.3 turnovers a game.

Been much better no doubt

 

[Jamal Mercer]

4 on 2 break and we pull it out? And don’t score.

 

[Aike]

No subs all half

 

[pauled]

Dunk it Oscar

 

[bbncal02]

5 point turnaround thanks to stall ball. Sigh.

 

[CatOfDaVille]

Oscar hasn't came out the entire game. Unless I blinked and missed it. Wheeler for maybe 1-2 minutes. Neither will have legs come March.

Lol what? Neither should have any pro aspirations then if they can't make it an entire college season playing 35+ mins/game.

 

[Jamal Mercer]

4 on 2 break and we pull it out? And don’t score.

And they hit a 3

 

[megablue]

They tend to occasionally do that when we play weak competition.

LSU is 12-1

 

[kywildcat41086]

Cal needs to let this team run and quit putting the stop sign up for stall ball! That pisses me off more than anything.

 

[LmdCat]

so you still can't do it

I can tell you they will certainly go nowhere with Wallace who isn't capable of making simply bounce pass to a teammate while he wasn't even being guarded.

 

[bbncal02]

Three empty possessions. Sigh.

 

[gharding07]

Cmon Wallace, you gotta make one of those

 

[Farsight]

Oscar got hacked 3 TIMES there and NO CALL WTF

 

[ukjenning44]

No subs in the 2nd half and stall ball.
