KenPom/Net Rankings Update

I could be wrong but I think that defense has actually come up a little, didn't it used to be in the low 100s? If so, that's at least a good sign.
Worst I remember seeing it this year was 97, but it could have been worse than that. Either way, it does seem to be improving. Bama made the Final Four last year with a defense ranked in the 100s.
We were at 74 before the Alabama game, then it went to 84. After the Vandy loss, it went to 78. 72 is an improvement, we're going the right direction. LOL
KenPom defense is fake.
He doesn’t count an offensive rebound as a possession.
Tn got 18 offensive rebounds. If you put back those 18 possessions than KenPomPom didn’t count the numbers look much different.
But the team is still the same team. Nerd numbers just give talking heads something to talk about.

Taking out the fact Tennesse can't shoot, I thought we looked better on defense. Probably gonna be a year where the D peaks at the end of the season. Pope knows what's up. Playing for Pitino he most definitely does.
19th is pretty low for a team that has wins vs the # 3, 4, 6, 10, 16, 25 and 26 ranked kenpom teams.
I mean JFC they have 4 top 10 kenpom wins and what do you get for it ? 19th ranked team ?

Kenpom isn’t that far off from NET. If you look closely, teams ranked 19th to 11th on Kenpom are all within 1 NetRtg. Practically, Kentucky is tied for 11th with 8 other teams.
