***UNofficial Kentucky vs. Gonzaga Thread***

[cathouse]

I missed mass for this. Should have went ahead and gone.

You're going to hell for this. 🙃

 

[permdaddy]

Ugo and Reed -8.5 net points for the half. That's pretty much the story so far

 

[cats2010]

Have to start a different crew 2nd half. He rolls the same starting lineup back out, we will be down 16-18 points by the 17:00 mark.

 

[shaudyshaud]

That's because this offense is completely one-dimensional. Set a pick, drive into traffic, kick it out for a sloppy 3. What the hell was the point of having Welch on the staff if we're not going to run actual sets? I mean, Gonzaga is WIDE OPEN on its looks.

It’s very basic . I’m convinced a lot of these 5 stars would look a lot better at another school.

 

[jameslee32]

Would be really nice to get our original starting lineup back at some point. This bench just isn't getting it done.

 

[Blue Bigfoot]

i had to put the moron on ignore. He cannot contain his hatred for Reed.

Seems racial with him.

 

[Soupbean]

I’m beggin you Cal….get Reeves, Reed and Rob on the floor at the same time and watch us make a run.

Thiero and anybody else and let’s go.

Gonzaga can t guard all three shooters, but can guard two.

 

[the nail at the foul line]

Wait until next year when Cal gets his guys.

 

[wccat2969]

How about those goals now Cal? Was one of the goals to lose 3 in a row at Rupp? If so, just might happen.

 

[bnewt]

I wonder what assistant coach will do the post game show. We all know Cal won’t show his face.

If he does, the fans need to have signs telling him to pack his crap and leave

 

[BC_Wader]

Almost looks like one coach scouted the other team and is taking away their offense. The other coach looks lost, again.

He don't watch tape

 

[UKCat4Ever]

But we have 7 All Stars in the NBA

Don't forget to tune in when a few of them play tomorrow! Or at least that's what Cal wants you to care about.

 

[TankedCat]

disappointing first half. I know better than to go into hyperbole when there is a second half to play but I would have thought these guys would have been more prepared. That open 3 pointer looked like a Harlem Globetrotters skit

 

[ThunderMash]

How are these announcer goons surprised at this score? Watching Kentucky against Florida and Tennessee told me all I needed to know about how this season is heading.

 

[the nail at the foul line]

I’m beggin you Cal….get Reeves, Reed and Rob on the floor at the same time and watch us make a run.

Thiero and anybody else and let’s go.

Gonzaga can t guard all three shooters, but can guard two. Trust me

DJ is someone's son

 

[RMorris33]

I need to see some kind of toughness these first 5 minutes of the 2nd half. Come on Cats

 

[Rideordiewildcat]

Well, some hope here.

Probably 140 of those were against their big bad high school conference, of which 138 would beat us today.

Oh im trying to hold on to my hope. I just have seen this movie before, overcoming all of cows weird lineups and probably a lot of Ugo in the second half with Edwards. Is just not going to get it done.

 

[LmdCat]

I am through believing in this lousy team.

 

[TriCountyCat]

If we don’t win the first 4 minutes you might as well turn it off

 

[UKNothinButNet]

Defense ranked 162th in the country..

Not to fear, the optimizers will be quick to remind us that CCC devoted a full 50 minutes of practice on defense. Better late than never! 🤦‍♂️

 

[cathouse]

The team has regressed so much. UK has once again reverted to 1v1 offense with throwing up bad shots. The constant driving into trouble with very little intention of having someone spotted up to kick to is so ineffective. Just bad basketball that I can watch when the summer AAU circuit starts up.

The longer Cal Coaches them, the worse they get.

 

[BigKari]

We'll make the tournament, but only as an 8, 9, or 10 seed.

Then we'll be knocked out in the first weekend. At best, we win the first round game. Cal will have two tourney wins in four seasons worth of work.

I was just thinking how this game feels like an 8-9 tournament matchup.

 

[fatguy87]

Cal Needs to say gas go out there play fast loose and let 3's fly PERIOD I Know he NeVER will, but that's when we've been our best shooting a lot of 3's not playing to get to the point of 2 little too late like we've seen in The Other home losses.

Spread the floor with 3 guards (Reed, Reeves, and Rob as the core), Theiro at the 4, and a big. Consider playing a 4 guard lineup. What's the point of keeping your best players off the court when they can handle, pass, and shoot for a guy who can barely block shots or rebound despite being close to 7'?

 

[CatPhight]

Few is giving him the blue print. Screens out front and quick drives.
But ccc is too stupid to see it or change defense

UNC Wilmington and USCJr. already wrote it...punch us in the mouth and take our lunch...

 

[Jakerz]

I wouldn’t admit paying for tickets to watch this team. At the very least I’d say I went to a yo-yo show and they were playing basketball during intermission

 

[LineSkiCat14]

Every player that loses their man on a 3pt shot should come out. And if it's so bad that we just keep cycling players in and out so be it.

At some point there has to be repercussions for the lack of defense awareness and effort.

 

[the nail at the foul line]

Before tubby left we played Memphis and this game kind of reminds me of that one

 

[RunninRichie]

We beat vandy by turty doe

 

[kywildcat41035]

Cal has taken me from always expecting a win at home to hoping/doubting. I don't expect Ws anymore.

This is so sad and I’m in the same boat as you. I’m really starting to hate the guy to be honest for what he’s done to the program!

 

[TheDude73]

And there is Edwards starting again….

 

[Lazlo7]

How was that not called a foul over the back of Reed

 

[jameslee32]

Threedwards!!!
Block Thiero
Reed layup AND 1
Reed bank floater

 

[LineSkiCat14]

Sheps game went from blowing far past his ranking.. to now being maybe OVER ranked and almost unplayable.

So weird.

 

[fatguy87]

That layup was Shep's only good look today.

 

[shaudyshaud]

Adou has to stop picking up his dribble like that . He’s flirting with a travel

 

[Kyhoward]

Rafterry summed up our #2 problem and Wright agreed - old vs young
#1 problem - COWWWW!!

 

[HenryMuto]

LETS FN GO!

 

[LmdCat]

I would love to be wrong but I don't think so.

 

[LineSkiCat14]

How was that not called a foul over the back of Reed

Thought the same thing. That's the type of call every home team would get. He was draped over.

 

[crawfords corner]

Thats it Onyenso. Dont leave your feet. Make them shoot over you
