Butler and Carr left 6 free throws on the board. Tons of missed threes. Tons of turnovers.

We should have 55 to 60 points right now.

These guys are sleep walking and will get their collective asses kicked if they bring this type of mentality into an SEC game.
Butler makes me nervous for actual crunch time moments. I don’t trust him at all at the FT line

I just don’t see what everybody sees in Jackson ?
He shoots 3s but what else does he give us ?
He seems so disconnected horrible body language. At times you don’t even realize he’s in the game .
He pushes off quite a bit when dribbling against quick/aggressive/tight defense.
 
Kentucky has absolutely sucked tonight and yet have a 12 point lead while scoring 45 points in the half. It at least says even when they suck butt they can still establish a 12 point lead. In previous years, if we looked this bad in a game we would be down double digits.

As bad as that looked, we're up by 12 and many people thought we'd win by about 20. And we're not that far off 100 point pace against a team that is better defensively than many ot our opponents.

I see us hitting 100 and winning by 27.

Ok on track for a 90 pt game
I don’t think there is a lack of effort from anyone
This game is being called tighter..on both ends…than this team is used to
WKU is showing some different looks that’ll be good for us on the long run
I think we will see necessary adjustments at the half and come out better
A year ago we’d have been down 12 instead of up 12
 
Played bad and still up 12. Some of you can't be pleased.
Being spoiled has nothing to do with it. That was a horrible first half, and I guarantee you the coaching staff and players aren't pleased.

If they're not pleased, why should we be? This is a Final Four-level team. Fans will expect them to play better than this, and rightfully so.
 
Been happening a bit too much in the past couple of games. We've gone from a team that had nearly ZERO turnovers in a game to being sloppy. Not happy with that AT. ALL.

We've had our best shooting game just last game vs Jackson St.

Our last two games we've turned it over on only 11.2% and 12.2% of our possessions.

This isn't Jackson St. We are still on pace to beat the spread lol.
 
People freaking out despite us being up 12.

We didn't shoot it well. We turned it over too much.

It happens.
Nobody is “freaking out” from what I see. It is ok to criticize lack of effort and sloppy passes, missing free throws. This performance would have UK trailing at the half to ranked opponents.

It’s a real-time game thread. You just want a pep rally?
