Who is our leading scorer tonight and how much do they put up?

[Princecal]

Tried to make it a poll but apparently my phone is dumb.

So we'll do it the old fashioned way. Pope is going to pull starters and main pieces by the end of the game, so who do you think will lead us in scoring?

I'm going Oweh because he'll probably go at them and make them pay before going to the bench for most of the 2nd half because we don't need the starters anymore.

What do you all think BBN family? This should be a fun game tonight

 

[Princecal]

I could also see Carr being open, or Butler just getting driving lanes continuously, but I wanted to spark a little conversation

 

[HerrosHeroes]

Thats like trying to find a needle in a big blue haystack.

But Ill go Oweh with 22 pts

 

[Eagles_Ball]

JR...he seems like he's going to excel against the weaker sisters. Same with Oweh. I'll go with JR though and he'll have 26.

 

[anonymous_2011]

Carr had a quiet game (scoring wise) last game so I think he will lead us tonight

One thing about JR, he's not afraid to pull the trigger most times

 

[B.B.H.]

Kerr Kriisa. Great game for him to start making some shots. Gonna go with 18 points as he goes off with multiple consecutive threes.

Him and Chandler getting it going would be amazing.

He seemed a little gun shy in the Duke game, but I think he knew he just didn't have it on offense that night. I've been EXTREMELY skeptical of his ability to carry a really good team. His analytics at BYU just didn't scream he's a dude. Watching him play, he doesn't necessarily possess the skill set to get to the rim against strong physical teams. That said, against these lesser teams he can, and will, and like you said he'll pull it from deep in a hiccup. I really enjoy watching him play. The great thing about my skepticism, it's pretty apparent he doesn't need to be THE guy. We've got a bunch we can rotate into the role. Pretty cool "problem" to have.

 

[GoAndRunIsGoneAndDone]

They can't guard the three. I'll go with Brea but JR or KK could be the sniper tonight, just as easily. Hard to predict who will go off on a team that can't stop us at any position while we have so many long range bombers on this team. I look for Noah and Perry to see significant minutes tonight, too. Either could get hot in the blink of an eye, off the bench in this game.

Wouldn't surprise me if we have 7 in double digits this game and nobody scores 20. What a beautiful team we have😎

Robinson very clearly does not enjoy physicality. No reason he shouldn’t be getting four points a game in the paint based on how deeply he is guarded

Especially since it seems like be has a good mid range game. Catch it there pump take them straight to the basket. I trust that Pope is letting him know that in practice

Nah - Kerr likes assists too much... I think he gets double digit assists again tonight.

I think it will be a 3pt barrage, so I will go with Robinson as I think he will be attacking again tonight.

I agree about Robinson. In addition to the physicality causing problems, he also doesn't have a phenomenal handle, which is compounded with physical defenders.

 

[St.PatterSoN-54-]

I don't know who it will be, but I predict they'll have 6 threes.

 

[Boyd94]

Perry with 14.

 

[Short-Dawg-69]

I’m betting the bigs all have a big game.
- Williams will have a double double
- Garrison will push for a double double
- Carr 17
- But Robinson will lead all scorers with 22

 

[chroix]

Brea. And I think we break the school record for threes tonight.

 

[HerrosHeroes]

points too? At least Rupp record?

 

[maysvilleky]

Brea…20 pts 6-9 on threes and a couple FTs

 

[chroix]

I got no problem with that.

 

[L.O.D.]

Brea 29 pts

 

[docholiday51]

Brea will rain 3's down on them like a monsoon

 

[BC_Wader]

Koby Brea. 29 points with 7 threes

 

[blue cincy]

Feeling Brandon Garrison, 22 pts and 8 rebounds, 4 assts. Not sure why but that is the feel i get at 420PM friday night.

 

[truckbrandon]

Brea or Jaxson are obvious choices, but i could see Trent Noah going off from 3 tonight

 

[the nail at the foul line]

Chandler 17

 

[ukfan1622]

Chandler 17

You disappointed me; I was sure you were going to say Bob...

 

[LukaszObrzut]

Kerr
5 -3’s.

 

[ukfan1622]

I kind of figure it'll be a bench player and I could see Garrison having his way with Jackson State's bench big men so I'll go with Garrison for 18 points to lead the team.

 

[Justwantadecentteam]

Carr, for 18. We will have well balanced scoring imo once again. I'd like to see Williams bust lose though

 

[ukfan1622]

Kerr
5 -3’s.

I expect Kerr to save that game for somebody better.

 

[davekersey]

Oweh.....27

 

[Blueisbest]

Brea with 5 more three pointers and 19 overall points. 6 people in double figures and 2 more with 8.

 

[the nail at the foul line]

Let me correct my post.

At halftime with Kentucky leading 164 to zero Mark Pope will go into the crowd and get walk-ons. Robert Chandler, also known as Bob will lead the team in the second half with 17 points.

 

[kywildcatsfannumber1]

Robinson, 28 points.
