Why is it on him and not the staff that he only got ONE SHOT the last 13 minutes!!??Pouted and disappeared. Quit on the team.
I love Alexander’s game, but he dribbles the air out of the ball. Offense would be so much better if they moved it around rather than him doing that.Removing him from the game took all of our offense away. Our offense for better or worse is Alexander to the goal and Knox outside with an occasional Wenyen slam.
well Cal should teach him that and stop him from doing it so much
he has to do that because no one else can beat their manI love Alexander’s game, but he dribbles the air out of the ball. Offense would be so much better if they moved it around rather than him doing that.
It’s not about beating a man individually, you need some type of offensive sets that help create shots for guys without have to beat someone one on one.he has to do that because no one else can beat their man
Pouted and disappeared. Quit on the team.
You suck then. Your mentality is an AAU one and is the problem with this team. Remember 2012 when Davis had the 4th most shots on the team? If you think you get the most shots because your are "the best" you are a bitch non team player that should sit. Help the team and you will get your shots.I would have quit too. Almost every game he is the most talented player on the court, and Cal runs zero of the offense through him, has to be frustrating.
Obviously, Knox never had to play defense at all in AAU or High School. He looks lazy on defense, but I wonder if it's laziness or just not being alert.
That being said, we needed to run our offense through him and SGA exclusively. Throwing it to Washington on the block rarely worked out well.
Nicely done.How do you know he Quit? Because he did? Doesn't prove anything. Body language? Doesn't prove anything.
Facial expressions might be universal but can you guarantee Knox isn't unique? No you can't.
Knox is fine, he just responds differently.
If they didn't get rough with him he wouldn't have to back down.
You're jealous of his draft pick.
This is about the children. We are changing lives.
And yet he keeps Diallo in even when it costs us the game.He gave up 8 straight points during that Auburn run that gave them the lead. I don't know if he was pouting because we were able to score without him getting any shots, but he KILLED us on those corner 3's and drives.
I realize he is our best scoring option, but most games he gives up as many or more pt's than he scores.
Cal sat him for not playing defense.
I can't help but wonder if Dakich is playing UK fans when he makes comments like Knox quitting
He knows UK fans are gritting their teeth when he says it.
That said, Is he wrong?
And yet he keeps Diallo in even when it costs us the game.
Cal is going to kill our season messing around with Diallo. He's not ready mentally. I trust Cals judgement, he thinks he will need him, but I don't see it. Take the roster down to 7 guys for the bulk and have Diallo play only when you have to.
You can't protect his NBA status he doesn't have one. If his family cant deal with that then transfer. But it is what it is. Don't take the whole team down because you're being stubborn about it.
for a brief period of time I was on the blame Diallo wagon
and no way would I argue that Diallo doesn't showcase his ability to derail this team. But you can't have 3 others guy just contributing nothing, and no bench to replace them.
Cal said we'd struggle this year. He should have set the bar much , much lower.
I'll say this. I'm going to be skeptical of any 5 star rating from here on out. We don't have a team of 5 stars, regardless of what McDonald's and ESPN tells me.
Diallo playing has the same parallel to Barbee being on staff on one hand, but also guys like Wall vouching for Cal years after finishing playing for him: loyalty.
Cal’s strength is his weakness. Conversely, K was willing to go skinny dipping with Captain Crispy Cream Capel, and it proved to be hugely beneficial. K will cut a man lose and sell him out to the devil if it means winning 5 more games a season.
Cal won’t go down that road, and we’re seeing a rare case this season where Cal’s strength is also a parallel weakness.
The reason I've started to believe Cal isn't really evaluating much on the recruiting trail is because of this type of team.
They don't fit together, it's a roster that is messed together.
Cal needs to expand his recruiting list to the top 50 and evaluate. He has a style that he prefers, and they aren't always in the top 25. Stop taking blue chips just because they're blue chips. And I do believe he does.
positionless players means you can just recruit a potluck of guys - keep the big guys near the goal, the little guys at the top of key.
Shooting, passing, assists, defending - if they are a 5 star they must be able to do all that right?
For this team to win another regular game this season will take a miracle.Bama,Florida,Arkansas and Missouri will be difficult for this team to beat.Missouri and Florida have already beat them and Arkansas and Bama are away.Things are looking pretty sad for the Cats and when it's all said and done,these guys have quit on Cal.

Sounds like the description of Briscoe for 2 years.I love Alexander’s game, but he dribbles the air out of the ball. Offense would be so much better if they moved it around rather than him doing that.
Looked to me like the offense quit running through him. They didn't even attempt to get him the ball for the biggest part of the second half. He may have slacked off, but the team didn't help to get him involved at all.Pouted and disappeared. Quit on the team.
Lol.
Knox is on the verge of being a sophomore.
He's had Calipari screaming for him to move all year.
His favorite shot is still NBA desperation fade away with 15 on the shot clock.
Knox checked out a long time ago. He's moved on, isn't going to change. The only way he can help us is if he just hits shots all game
This game reminded me SLIGHTLY of the Wisconsin game with the Harrison twins because Cal put Hami back in to allow him to gain some confidence and make a play and it failed miserably.
Hami's problem right now is much more than missing shots. He turns it over, gets stuffed on drives to the rim and gets blown by on defense. I can't think of ONE area that he is even decent at right now
