Z and his brother

[crestcat]

Z’s brother is an asset to his team, Z is clueless, Cal has done him no favors.

Well, he's most definitely NOT clueless. Cal just hasn't figured out how to best use him.

And he is a liability on defense if they're playing rugged, beefy teams.

The Illinois Isivic is the better player of the two by far.

Calipari has done everything to put Z into a position to succeed and he’s just soft. Once you start to push back against him physically he folds.

Sadly, they both lit us up from three

Whatever happened to the Big Z of the game vs Georgia? I already ordered my #9 T-shirt after the game. Fools gold.

He’s had games like that at Arkansas.

Just gonna put this out there. I think it's the beard that separates their skill level. If Z takes his beard growth seriously then I think his game will follow.

Amari tried to bully ball Ivisic a few times to no avail....his defense alone makes him far superior to his brother. Amari absolutely destroyed Ivisic in the Arkansas game (and was the only player for UK that played well that evening).

Hes a freshman, right

Some of that has to be American food not agreeing with him, right? The joke is "get that boy some cheeseburgers/cake," but American food is generally one step above a cowpie laced with sodium benzoate to preserve the color.

I honestly think Pope could whip him into shape and figure out how to get him eating right. Hell, I'm sure Lee Anne would cook his meals herself.

Watched Z against St Johns and he was clueless. A tall stick standing around that still managed to foul out.

Z’s brother is a lot better. At some point people need to stop blaming Cal and just admit Z isn’t as good as people thought he was. That first 15 minutes against Georgia was largely just fool’s gold.

He’s had good games at Arkansas, but he’s still incredibly inconsistent, almost always lost on the court, pretty bad defensively, and gets pushed around way too easily.

 

[TriCountyCat]

Z would be great taking Carr’s role but he can’t play the 5, his is too weak.

Dude I thought the Illinois kid was Z's dad. Not kidding.
