Cats and the Heels

[lurkeraspect84]

Boston needs to come out.

It would be great if our "best shooter" didn't miss them all.

 

[lurkeraspect84]

Whoa, some bad luck for UK so far...

I wouldn't call it "bad luck".

 

[Kevin Bryan]

It would be great if our "best shooter" didn't miss them all.

He is just throwing wild shit up there too, that has no chance to go in.

 

[lurkeraspect84]

Their bigs get in foul trouble and ours start jacking up 3s. Just not sure what they could possibly be thinking.

I would have never thought us playing each other as teams would bring our fans closer together.

 

[Kevin Bryan]

Cal needs to press more with the length they have. He never does though...

 

[FaithPlusOne]

A lot of it has to do with the refs not letting them play. Not that they are calling a ton of fouls, but most of what they are calling are weak.

I’ve watched enough of both of these teams to say that neither really needs that much help at looking bad. I wish I could put it on the refs.

Indeed, there is a great abundance of suck on the court right now.

 

[coryfly]

Being in the bonus is bad for this team. They suck so bad at FTs.

 

[FaithPlusOne]

I wish Roy wouldn’t play Platek against athletic teams. He is just outclassed.

Would rather see what Puff could do.

 

[coryfly]

Love is not very good. Platek is even worse. Walton hasn't blocked out a player in his life. Leaky is the worse junior in UNC history.

Until Harris comes back the team is just going to suck.

 

[Kevin Bryan]

Platek looks like he should be a team manager or something.

 

[coryfly]

Agree. But he will because he is an upperclassman and does things like plays positional and shit like that. Is what it is.

 

[coryfly]

Yeah, he is terrible.

 

[Noahtogo24]

Yeah, he is terrible.

He did have that nice layup...

 

[Kevin Bryan]

Surprised UK has extended a lead with Jackson and Sarr on the bench for a good part of the half.

 

[coryfly]

Roy playing these f'ed up lineups the last two minutes has killed this team.

 

[lurkeraspect84]

I do love these games between us.

 

[coryfly]

I do love these games between us.

Agreed, but they stress me out, lol.

 

[FaithPlusOne]

I do love these games between us.

They’re usually pretty competitive at least.

 

[coryfly]

FT shooting the difference so far. UNC has to get to the line more and stop fouling UK on the drives. Having guys like Platek and Walton in are going to lead to shooting fouls though.

It's impossible to ask freshman bigs to not foul, but that's where we are.

It took me a second to recognize Cam'ron Fletcher.

Agree. Will be interesting what kind of adjustments we make.

 

[coryfly]

But most of their fouls are off the ball, which don't hurt as bad. UNC is fouling on the shot. Though not that it would matter. We suck shooting FTs.

 

[lurkeraspect84]

Not sorry.

 

[Scotty00]

Blows my mind that Roy isn’t feeding the post every time down floor! Wow! Maybe he’ll do it I the 2nd half.

You won't get any sympathy from me for poor shooting. Seems to be Calipari's MO.

 

[lurkeraspect84]

I'm mean, it's an ugly game, but both teams are trying.

 

[Kevin Bryan]

UK winning the battle of the boards by 5. Did not see that coming, especially with all the bigs in foul trouble.

Are we sure the math is right?

 

[Kevin Bryan]

Are we sure the math is right?

Mintz, Boston, and Ware each have 5 boards.

 

[Noahtogo24]

UK fans, Ware reminds me of Marcus Lee for you guys...

[Noahtogo24]

Well of course you know UK more than me, both seem like high energy guys, who rebound well but can't shoot...

 

[Kevin Bryan]

3 each on Sarr and Jackson now....

 

[Kevin Bryan]

Imagine that, Boston trying to go one on one every time and taking a garbage jumper.

 

[Kevin Bryan]

That pressure is giving UK all kinds of problems.

 

[Cat_Incognito]

Boston is a black hole, and he sucks

 

[coryfly]

Roy loves to watch a lineup struggle and just let them flounder.

These refs need to chill the F out.
