********OFFICIAL GAME THREAD********
- Thread starter Wall2Boogie
- Start date
He thinks Duke is the greatest, God I wish we could beat them....oh wait !!!!!!
predictably, vitale is now on our nuts, since we opened up a big lead. Gawd he's obnoxious!
"this team will no way be as good as the '10 wall team, ant davis team, or last year's team"----dook vitale dec 12, 2015. duh.
I'm feeling a little better about playing the Cards now. Keep building on this play and we'll be fine.
If you wanna say they aren't at a level where they can win a title I agree.
I just think "suck" is a bit strong lol
One Half doesn't make the game,when will negative Nancie boys like you learn that? Kentucky is by 21 points and you are crying.This team is young,learning,and getting better. Get over it
A Humphries at center and Skal on the bench would be a scary team 2. A beefy center would open up the remaining 4 spots.
Q: what are you talking about, poor play? We're up by 20 in a game we were favored by 13.
You say: well, earlier we were playing poorly!
Q: maybe you're coming to conclusions too early in a game? Why not wait to see if we lose before freaking out?
Maybe he's not a sunshine pumper - maybe you just freak out when we're behind 2-0.....
he'll probably be great someday, but given his lack of playing experience before coming to uk, it's looking like we won't see anything this year near what he may become. even so, he'll be a high pick in the nba next year on potential alone.
I've agreed with quite a few things DV has said today but him trying make sure the world knows we aren't great is amazing.
Hawkins and Skal the only two players with no rebounds.... Wow.
Lee seriously came to play tonight. Well done.
I had to listen to this one on the radio, so this thread helped alot!

Yeah, a player with his size and skill set should get 8 and 5 by accident. It's like he's trying to collect goose eggs. Baffling.
I think he's scared - not lazy, he's confused and a little lost. He wants to do well, but his mindset is all messed up right now
Good job cats, good win, they played much better in the second half, just wish we could have scored more than 1 point the last three and a half minutes.
My guess is his head is spinning, everyone coaching him, cal all over him, disappointed in his own play. I do think he'll be much better by year end, but he's not going to get any physically stronger by then. He just needs to learn how to compensate for that.
Obviously you quoted the wrong person. You will not see one post by me trashing the team, all I said to Caneintally is "why do you struggle to understand that there will be fans on here that are frustrated… "
I haven't said anything at all in this thread, or any other thread, that isn't true and I dam sure didn't blow a gasket like so many others. In fact I've been very relaxed all game long but go ahead and continue to quote the wrong people. Have fun with that.
Another person that either misunderstood my post or quoted the wrong person. Where the heck do you see where I was being negative? Read it again. I was simply explaining to Cane that it is NOT far fetched to understand that Some on this board are going to be negative given the first half performance by UK.
Reading comprehension can be your friend.
Opinions vary.
I'm actually very positive about this team. I'm glad they suck now, they are 9-1 and suck. That's awesome because when they don't suck they are going to be impressive to watch.
I agree 100%.
It's frustrating because we know we only get him for 1 year but we aren't seeing what we all believe he is capable of. He can shoot and he has length. I can't wait to see the real Skal.
we had very balanced scoring today, which, IMO, is a very good thing
We all know that won't happen for various reasons but it could be a strong statement sent to Skal that he needs to play better. One play he didn't even bother to box his man out and lead to an easy offensive rebound. He literally just stood there. I threw my hands up in the air at that and really questioned if he should be starting.
Great job with effort and energy in the second half. Another good game by Alex and I hope he continues. Willis needs to play. Whatever defensive deficiency he may have he spaces the floor. Hawkins should get spot minutes and NEVER SHOOT. Murray still looks uncomfortable but he improved in the second half. Lee is what he is-athletic garbage man. And Tyler Ullis and Briscoe are just two tough mothers that bring it.
Thought there was pretty good hustle first half, just very little cohesion. Agree with your comments otherwise. I think Murray was uncomfortable because he KNOWS he can shooter better than he had been - and proved it 2nd half. He had a game high 17 points.
