This. +16 tonight with him on the floor. Sad thing is you can see certain posters who make it a point to point out every negative thing he does because they’re the same ones who make excuses for Wagner when he does something wrong. Then, you have the guys who point out everything Wagner does wrong and only talk about Reed’s positives.
Folks, they’re on the same team. It’s not an either, or. They like each other. They play completely different styles and are going to compliment each other’s strengths this season. They’ll both improve.
He needs to be working with ulis on that jump step floater with his strong hand(right hand) that ulis used to hit in his sleep here. Goign with his weaker hand doesn’t make any sense
As much as he touches the ball, it would be hard to not get credit for some assist. However, that wild shot he threw up at the end of regulation wasn't team ball. As a team player he would have been looking for a better shooter to set up for the game winner. However, Cal wanted him to get the shot so that he could brag to the media about the accomplishment of player not playing with house money.
He was successful on that play all night, he could have drawn a foul, got an easy put back. Nothing wrong with that shot.
I think it’s a good time for you to stop. Wagner had a few bad plays, but overall this was his best game at UK. His late FTs were important. Nothing wrong with admitting all of that. If we are going to make a run in March, Wagner needs to be at his best.
At the AAU level, he was able to fly by everyone to score lots of points via layups. However, he isn't finding that to be so easy at the college level. He needs a shot which it is obvious he didn't spend very much time developing.

I didn't say it wasn't his best game at UK, but the bar was so low, it wasn't very difficult to achieve. You guys are more than welcome to praise him. I will reserve my right to do so at a later date when he strings a number of games together when his positives are greater than his negatives.
His positives were greater than his negatives tonight. He deserves praise for that, as any Cat would.
From what you have seen of him at UK, did you really think that shot was going in considering the number of shots he has missed around the basket?
This. The other posters wife must have gotten rammed by Wagner. No other explanation.
If the king of overreacting in game threads thinks you have issues.. then you got some problems.
You have more confidence in him than I do. I didn't think he had a snowball's chance of going in because he has missed way more shots around the basket than made.
You talking about the Wagner game winner attempt before OT. I don’t because he wasn’t on balance on the shot
Yeah, he made good things happen all night driving.
That is what is so scary; he hasn't been successful doing what he is known for being best at.
I hope he has figured it out and I hope he figures out how to be a good team player too.
Yeah he did, he played better and he soem things to work off of. I’m good with the way he played, just on the game winner, he did what he did against Kansas and got off balance and threw up a bad shot
Lol I mean clearly JFCats needs to realize the irony of this
No, just adding context for people who have two brain cells to rub together. You go ahead and keep crying about it.
UC just got Bandaogo's appeal reversed. I'm feeling a little better about Z getting eligibility now. It was a different situation as a double transfer but at least these issues are slowly getting resolved.
Yeah but what did he do in OT? Steal, steal, steal. It didn’t age well at all.
Yet he should be benched but Edwards and DJ get the long leash the two prior games? Typical Cal though.
Edwards never forces anything which is good. He lets the game come to him. Very efficient last night.
