It isn't that Kriisa is a great player because he isn't. However, he is a great competitor and fighter. He is the kind of player who is willing to start a fight even if he loses. Without him, we are a team of choir boys who run from the first sign of a fight. Every team needs someone on it who is capable of getting a team's competitive juices flowing. Krissa is that person for Kentucky.

Amari could use a heart.
At some point, one would think a 7-ft center would grow tired of losing battles to 6'6" guards. Opposing teams' guards drive the lane without impunity. If he isn't going to block them, he can at least introduce them to some serious body contact. I am not advocating injuring anyone, but he should at least on occasion say hello. That is the cordial thing to do, least they feel ignored. Lol

We only miss Krissa as we have no backup PG….Perry is clearly not close to ready to give even 10 min as backup

Krissa was shooting 26% from 3pt…he ain’t exactly a defensive stopper either. So let’s not ever exaggerate his ability ….he also played the Clemson game that we lost and was not good that night

This team just has warts with or without Krissa…teams are simply exploiting and guys need to improve

I will try this again. We miss Kriisa because of his energy. He is an excitable type of player who gets his teammates fired up to match his energy. It is similar to the old Coke vs Pepsi commercials.
 
It’s not just his fight. We are supposed to be pushing the ball up court and in attack mode. When Kerr comes in he pushes the pace.

Butler continues to walk the ball up and slow down the pace. He needs to break that habit and pope needs to make sure he doesn’t slow us down.

We allowed osu to play at their pace. Attack and don’t allow them to set up their defense.
