***Game thread Wright St vs UK*****

Really sloppy few minutes before this two dunks.

Look very solid overall though!
 
Butler would almost be better off if he had about 3 less inches on his vertical. Hes an above average jumper but he’s not tall so it makes dunking more of a challenge and he wants to dunk everything instead of laying it in.
 
We have a defense. We are no where near perfect on defense but the pressure we put on people is great. Forcing mistakes, forcing guys to expel so much energy that the shots are not always going to fall. Butler is playing great defense but he is in his own head on offense. That was an easy lay in or dunk. He just could not decide which one he wanted to do. Robinson is playing decent defense as well. Oweh just a linebacker of a guy playing basketball. Love that guy.

I’ve noticed Wright State sagging off Butler quite a bit. Has bogged UK down a few possessions. Against better teams i wonder how Butlers limited shooting skills might create some issues.

He missed.
there have been some of those maddening plays where Butler has got caught in between being able to put those certain plays away.

once he gets them down, he wont fail at it. I have faith. he's so close already.

the pace of the game and when they've outrebounded them so far 18 - 134, it's looking pretty solid in this game. Just keep up the pressure ....
 
I screamed when Butler missed that dunk, the wife came out on the porch asking why I yelled, I said, he missed a dunk! She said Welcome back to Kentucky Basketball where it means something again! She is so right.
