Kentucky @ Tennessee

[RR30]

Sheppard lmao

 

[FaithPlusOne]

Kentucky has so much talent that it’s almost coaching malpractice that they haven’t been better. Look great today.

 

[Anthony B]

Well, looks like Mitchell discovered a new talent while he was injured. Now he dominates the sideline highlight reels.

 

[Scotty00]

Yeah and when he had KD he made the FF.

Umm may wanna check on that. Pretty sure you’re wrong.

 

[Demarcus Kidd-Miller]

This team shoots the 3 ball so well. I expect a make nearly every time Reeves, Sheppard, Dilly and surprisingly Edwards shoot the ball.

 

[kyjeff1]

Still not seen Reeves on any mock drafts and I gotta say I don't get it. Solid defender, nuclear shooter.

Too old, he’s going to have to work out for teams and earn his way on. He’s good enough, that’s for sure.

This has been the most fun team Cal has had full stop. They probably won't cut down the nets but damn if it's not a great watch night in night out

They are a ton of fun to watch. When they are rolling they can just overwhelm you. This is all with Dillingham having a pretty bad game as well.

 

[IUfanBorden]

So more fouls on UT this half. Are the officials helping Kentucky now?

Its weird. My phone has been silent for 20 minutes, now. Getting 100 text per minute on how bad the officiating was.

Now.....crickets.

 

[Anthony B]

We are giving them so many open 3s. Fortunately they have missed a lot of them. But can't count on that to continue.

Extremely fun to watch

They have missed a ton of open looks, for sure. But UK's defense has been pretty good today.

THIS UK team today, could be a problem. But can they do it for 6 straight?

 

[Anthony B]

The good thing about having so many shooters is that it drastically cuts down on the chances the team as a whole has a bad shooting night. Someone should be on at all times theoretically. Plus they are a good foul shooting team. And now that the defense is improving,,,,

 

[AWilli6995]

Sheppard is playing like a top 10 pick and Wagner is playing like he should return to school.

 

[coryfly]

UT has missed some open looks but they have also taken some bad threes, which is what they do at times when they are struggling offensively.

But it doesn't matter much when Kentucky is making some of these threes. They are hitting some pretty tough shots from outside.

Yeah, and that's the difference in these two teams. UK is going to score. Someone will be making shots. For UT that isn't the case. They may have to win some games defensively when they can't score. That isn't as big an issue this year but it's still an issue IMO. For UK it is hoping you don't run into a team that your defense simply can't stop.

 

[della]

No he didn't

Yes, he did...

 

[RR30]

Yes, he did...

Lost in the second round with KD lmao. Please learn how to read

 

[Scotty00]

Della is that you in the front row of the student section with the black glasses and beard?

 

[coryfly]

That Knecht three was in the basket, lol.

This Mashack/Dillingham battle is pretty fun.

 

[Afamu]

Very impressed with UK today.

Knecht is ****ing good.

Dillingham should play more.

 

[Scotty00]

I think Reeves stepped outta bounds on that drive.

 

[FaithPlusOne]

I think Reeves stepped outta bounds on that drive.

He definitely did.

It happens.

 

[coryfly]

14/27 from three is impressive against UT's defense.

15/28

 

[RR30]

Knecht has 40 and he's still not the most impressive player in the game

 

[Scotty00]

Shep!!!! Dagger!!!!

 

[Anthony B]

Shep is having a helluva game! Any chance this guy's blood runs blue enough to stick around for another year?

 

[kyjeff1]

I don't think Reed's nuts would fit in the hed of a tri-axle dump truck.

 

[RR30]

Refs have let both teams play in the second half and we've been rewarded. Fantastic game

 

[IUfanBorden]

Knecht has 40 and he's still not the most impressive player in the game

Meh...….Shep is a boss. But Knecht carrying the entire load is impressive AF

 

[coryfly]

Wow, not sure how an official misses a foot that far OOB, lol

 

[IUfanBorden]

If that were UT steping OOB----whoa, boy. Laughing

 

[coryfly]

Block looked good in real time. Replay looks like it is barely over the cylinder though. Close.

Mashack is elite defensively but he is so bad on offense. Then again so is Vescovi and some of the other Vols.

 

[IUfanBorden]

Wow, not sure how an official misses a foot that far OOB, lol

Bad position. Should have rotated over. No way he can see that from where he was

 

[RR30]

Looked clean to me

 

[IUfanBorden]

If over the cylinder----its GT.

Close

 

[IUfanBorden]

Looked clean to me

Cant argue for sure. Looked clean...but close.

 

[Scotty00]

That goaltending call and the reeves foot out of bounds no call negate each other!😎

 

[RR30]

Fouling with 2 minutes left, idk about that

 

[IUfanBorden]

That goaltending call and the reeves foot out of bounds no call negate each other!😎

I was told that's not how it works... SmokinSmile
