***** OFFICIAL VANDY VS UK GAME THREAD *****

[TankedCat]

I will never understand the strategy of teaching our guards to ever be under the basket in defense

 

[thedahc]

Trey looks disinterested to me. Go sit. Seriously, looks like they are all tired.

Tre looks slow and has lost his shooting touch

 

[bbncal02]

Theiro is very good at that. Luckily for us.

 

[WeWant9]

This is my fear for the tournament. Play some team they don’t take serious and dig a hole they can’t get out of, they’ll do it vs Vandy but it gets much harder starting next week.

 

[Runnin'Ramel]

You have seen a ton of wide open misses right?

Team not ready to play = coaching.

 

[Fox2monk]

Bradshaw didn’t move.

 

[the nail at the foul line]

Thiero only hope.

 

[jusballin32]

John Calipari, friends.

Cal isn’t missing wide open shots

 

[TheBlueMist]

15 years. 5 too many.

 

[HenryMuto]

2 fouls on AB and neither looked like a foul possibly

 

[Chief Paducah]

Wtf is wrong with Sheppard. Every shot is so short, passes are lazy and inaccurate. Playing like shit.

Playing his last game in front of his hometown fans.

 

[bbncal02]

God Pat Adams is a legit criminal.

 

[ThunderMash]

Waaaay too many Vandy guys being left open in three point land.

 

[FilsonCat]

Even Vandy gets a Jordan whistle in Rupp. **** the SEC.

 

[Cold Stout Beer]

This is exactly what we need. Play like crap but win and then roll into Knoxville focused.

 

[TriCountyCat]

Headfakes all year. We bite on every single one.

 

[crawfords corner]

Bradshaw was supposed to have good instincts for blocking shots. His instincts are shit.

 

[BlueWorldOrder74]

They all must have been in the swimming pool all day. Most every shot is short and they are just lagging around.

You call it swimming pool, I call it vagina. Dudes are tired.

 

[NociHTTP]

One of the keys to beating us is to run back the other way on an opponent miss, because of instead of coming down and running a play we'll just plow into a set defender or traffic. They're doing that. And Reed makes that bad pass leading to a 3 on the other end.

Thank goodness for Adou!

 

[Fox2monk]

If Reed gets taken top 10 this year I will eat a shoe.

Bro save this someone! I gotta see video of it. I don’t want it to for the record.

 

[kydmb99]

Take a shot every time Cal plays a new lineup

 

[bbncal02]

Team not ready to play = coaching.

Ssssh. Stop using logic!

 

[MidseasonTweak]

Waaaay too many Vandy guys being left open in three point land.

A theme this year.

 

[ManitouDan]

Trey looks disinterested to me. Go sit. Seriously, looks like they are all tired.

I came here to say the same , guy is totally mailing it in … play Adou !!

 

[LXWildcat]

still not convinced we win 3 games in the NCAA tourney.

Or 1

 

[Seth_C]

Let's get our 110 points and get out of here injury free.

Might have to settle for first to 70 at this point.

 

[NociHTTP]

Headfakes all year. We bite on every single one.

At this point it's not on coaching. That's just guys letting it go in one ear and out the other.

 

[LmdCat]

For the poster who said our offense is so good that we don't have to be good at defense, you might want to rethink that.

 

[Big BlueBeard]

Headfakes all year. We bite on every single one.

Every. Single. One.

 

[bbncal02]

Take a shot every time Cal plays a new lineup

Are you trying to give people alcohol poisoning?

[thedahc]

Thiero only hope.

Wagner is playing well

 

[Soupbean]

we gonna get a look at how a 3-2 matchup zone works. Vandy matching up out front

 

[ukjenning44]

Headfakes all year. We bite on every single one.

Our coach doesn’t teach anything so the players do the same thing over and over.

 

[ala_kat2]

Thiero only guy playing well so far. Everybody else sleep walking. Why so many 3 ball shots falling.off front rim? Do all these guys have tired legs?

 

[the nail at the foul line]

This is the worst team UK gets to play the rest of the year. Should be up 20. Instead.

 

[LXWildcat]

I came here to say the same , guy is totally mailing it in … play Adou !!

Tre has looked lazy the last couple of games he did play. Not sure what’s going on there but it seems it hasn’t been fixed

 

[permdaddy]

At this point defense is a matter of effort and some bare bones basketball IQ.

We've had much less talented players, understand how to play defense.

Maybe what Cal needs to do is start sitting the guys who aren't doing the basics.

What I've been saying for 2 months. If we give effort on D we are an average defensive team and that's good enough with our offense. When we don't we are terrible like 150's type defensive team most all of it is effort. Defense and rebounding are 80% effort.

 

[Dontworryboutit23]

Okay now Kentucky looks like shit

 

[TankedCat]

This is my fear for the tournament. Play some team they don’t take serious and dig a hole they can’t get out of, they’ll do it vs Vandy but it gets much harder starting next week.

it the tournament, you have to take every team seriously


you just can't teach that to freshmen
