**OFFICIAL KENTUCKY VS OAKLAND RD. 1 GAME THREAD**

[BlueRunner11]

The fact that Cal has played Tre Mitchell this much in the game is inexcusabl.

Lmfao. Mitchell has been absolute ass for a month and he has our most shots. Cal really wants to be fired

Being baited to play through Wagner and Mitchell. Cal falling for it ofc.

 

[Dontworryboutit23]

Sheppard isn’t even looking to shoot, this has a loss written all over it Kentucky is playing like chicken shits

 

[Demarcus Kidd-Miller]

Three of the best guards in the nation, shoot 41% from 3..... and our gameplan is play through Tre Mitchell. Lmao.

 

[MidseasonTweak]

Take DJ out man

He's gotta get him drafted

 

[the nail at the foul line]

I think the key tonight is pounding the ball inside to Mitchell.

 

[yes_takeaside]

Reed hasn't showed up yet

He’s doing what Cal wants. Get it inside for the easy miss.

 

[wildcat_nation28]

Well Reed nor Dillingham or Reeves looking to shoot the ball

 

[SemperFiCat]

Just so disappointed how this game has started. I'm sorry, but Calipari is a moron. Plain and simple.

 

[TriCountyCat]

Built for March

 

[kywildcat41086]

Maybe we should’ve added this coach to the list of coaches to replace Cal and we would’ve blown them out!!!!!!

 

[crawfords corner]

Edwards and Wagner, 0-5 1 rebound. Stellar

 

[Seth_C]

Hey here’s a crazy idea—how about our best shooters take some shots. Clearly Oakland knows this simple concept.

Unfortunately, Oakland has a coach and a strategy and he’s got his 25 year old sticking to Reed like glue.

 

[LmdCat]

Our ignorant coach changed our offense because of a 14 seed. How can anyone continue to make excuses for him. If anyone should have changed anything, you would think it would have been the 14 seed.

 

[GoNoles111]

SHOOT THE FN BALL REED

 

[Kentucky2022]

Cal just trying to pound it inside running no plays to get shooters open

 

[jeffky]

GET WAGNER OUT.

WHY IS REED SO DANG SCARED TO SHOOT

 

[ib4ky]

March Demo

 

[shaudyshaud]

He's gotta get him drafted

Well this won’t help lol

 

[KENTUCKY_FLYER]

its gonna happen again folks

 

[Fox2monk]

Reed has done NOTHING this game.

Is he even out there?

 

[zannmann]

Cal only finds coaching pleasure by being in a rock fight.

 

[ArcticChar]

We look like cattle running away from a storm.

 

[Big BlueBeard]

Can't blame the officials so far...

Oh some will. Have faith.

 

[bookerfan66]

Reed is NOT NBA ready.Looks scared shitless.

 

[Farsight]

I swear IF WE LOSE tonight, everyone better be blowing up Barnfarts number and email and twitter

 

[Kattopper]

You cant have a lineup against a zone defense with Wagner Edwards and Bradshaw on the floor. So far we have run the offense through Trey Mitchell and Wagner. Dumbest shit I have ever seen.

Eff Cal.

I said the same thing, we look scared. Reed isn't handling this well. Neither is Dilly.

 

[crashtestdummy]

Well, looks like going bowling didn't work.....

 

[permdaddy]

Gohlke has to get tired in the second half, he is working too hard to get these circus shots

He plays like this every game. Did it 3 nights in a row that I watched

 

[ManitouDan]

Hey Reed - maybe take a shot?

We dont game plan to get certain players shots .. Cal doesnt run that type offense .

 

[RunninRichie]

Why is anybody surprised. Cal said “if they fire me i’ll just buy a house on an island somewhere”. He doesn’t care, maybe he wants to get fired.

 

[KYExtemper]

And somehow Reed is going to be a lottery pick? Sorry, but I'm not seeing it.

 

[ala_kat2]

Sheppard and Dillingham and Reeves cannot get a look from three. Cal’s stupid idea to get Mitchell and Wagner the shots in the middle of the zone is not working. Just brilliant.

 

[ukbb2003]

Cal going inside without any inside players. Brilliant I tell you

All that Oakland trash talk about not being able to score inside baiting us into it.

 

[kywildcat41086]

Built for June

Fixed for you

 

[Soupbean]

This is a classic case to prove the right zone defense s doesn’t give up threes easier than man.

We’ve played man the whole game and they have what 6? They played matchup zone and we have none

 

[1STSergeant]

Don't panic

 

[U Go UK]

Wound up tighter than a drum.

 

[St.PatterSoN-54-]

Cal is terrible

 

[JwUKFan11]

Why not put Reeves in the middle of the zone and shoot the floater. Cal is once again getting schooled.

We only can put people who can't shoot or make layups there didn't you know?
