Ugh this offense. Could be up 25.

 

[Seth C]

No those were good looks, that Poythress 3 was a settle though.

They were fine but no reason. Up 18, force it down low, foul some players out. Exert dominance. They weren't bad looks but we could have had better looks on a drive to the paint and collapsed defense.

 

[perfectchaos007]

How is Kansas within single digits??

 

[Pollux]

God damn it. We always do this shit and let the other team back in it

 

[Fjordson]

What a joke. Totally wasted the first 10 minutes.

 

[NaturalHigh]

Kansas is a good team. They are going to get a run. We will be fine.

 

[Seth C]

How is Kansas within single digits??

Bad shots, not blocking out, "missed" calls. In that order.

 

[Grover Cleveland]

How is Kansas within single digits??

UK not being particularly efficient on offense.

Their defense has been awesome. Offense not as much

 

[perfectchaos007]

Back to double digits at half. Fresh platoons to start the 2nd half. Kentucky in great shape

 

[Frustrated_Grunt]

Oh neat. It's kind of a game again.

 

[Fjordson]

Hope our offense steps up here.

 

[Seth C]

Hope our offense steps up here.

I thought it was funny. Cal knew he shouldn't put in the white team at the end but he wanted to see hat would happen. Now he has his answer. He was happy he had the opportunity to take that risk.

 

[Wellscha]

Kentucky's size is just too much.

 

[iamblades]

Oh Lee almost just dunked on KU's whole team.

 

[Fjordson]

I guess my expectations were out of whack for our offense. Or I'm just missing something. We look pretty bad there to me. Should be pounding it inside every possession.

I've noticed we're running a lot more pick and roll with the blue platoon, and not post ups. Dakari has been the only one we've consistently posted. I guess cal isn't completely comfortable with posting up WCS or Towns right now.

 

[Pollux]

Some interesting calls this half

 

[iamblades]

What is with these ticky tack calls after not calling anything in the first half?

 

[iamblades]

Why are we playing this saggy zone defense all of a sudden.

Fuck the refs, play our game.

 

[Seth C]

We have slacked off on defense this half but are playing our offense instead.

 

[iamblades]

That was a sweet crossover.

 

[Pollux]

Nice to see how much Harrison has improved

 

[truly101]

UK looks good, but for once they have talent and experience. definitely a complete team.

KU looks bad, but its November and this game wont really matter by next week. Unfortunately I know from experience.

 

[iamblades]

Also odd thing I just noticed, for as sloppy as the offense has looked, only 4 TOs.

Certainly looked way uglier than a 4 TO game.

 

[Pollux]

Refs have ficking lost it this half

 

[iamblades]

That like the 4th clean block that was called a foul?

 

[Seth C]

Damn I love having Tyler Ulis as a backup point guard.

That like the 4th clean block that was called a foul?

Can't let us set the single game team block record against Kansas. We will have to do that later in the season.

 

[iamblades]

That was straight out of Kareem's playbook.

 

[vas_a_morir]

That like the 4th clean block that was called a foul?

Although dopey UK fans will suggest it is a pro-Kansas conspiracy... I honestly think it's just refs aren't used to seeing this many clean blocks in a game.

 

[iamblades]

Good to see him flexing it out, that means it's probably not too serious.

That or he is a tough son of a bitch.

 

[perfectchaos007]

Kansas finally matches Kentucky's 1st half total with 4:08 left in the game

 

[Fjordson]

Nice performance overall, but our offense needs work.

 

[Seth C]

Rider is going to be really sad they put Kansas on the schedule after Monday night. Or maybe they will wait to take it all out on Florida.

 

[iamblades]

How the hell am I supposed to go to sleep after this, I gotta get up at 6 in the morning.

 

[Seth C]

Holy shit, Floreal just got on the book against Kansas.

 

[NaturalHigh]

All aboard the hype train!

 

[Seth C]

All aboard the hype train!

It's fully booked. No room for latecomers!

And Bill Self just took his worst loss ever while at Kansas.

 

[Grover Cleveland]

So how long until they go digging in the dumpster for all of those 40-0 shirts and cross out the 2013 and put a 2014?

 

[Randolph Freelander]

That's it, Kansas? That's what you brought with you to Indianapolis?

 

[inm8num2]

Holy shit, didn't watch any of the game and just saw the score.

 

[LycanXIII]

How long until State Street starts burning couches?

 

[Fjordson]

Love boring wins. I can actually enjoy them

So how long until they go digging in the dumpster for all of those 40-0 shirts and cross out the 2013 and put a 2014?

Goddamnit Grover :lol

 

[Randolph Freelander]

12 points in the second half. That's a pretty good half for a player.

 

[Pollux]

Well...that went well

 

[CronoShot]

I used to laugh at all the 40-0 talk.

But damn. KU played horrible, sure, but Kentucky is just way too talented to conceivably lose a game this year. If they do (and I still think they will) it will be some random team they didn't expect that goes off from 3. They should waltz through the tournament though.

 

[iamblades]

I can't remember the last time I've seen a team held to under 20% fg shooting

If we commit to defense and rebounding with 100% effort, I don't see who can compete over a 40 minute game.

 

[NervousXtian]

Damn.. Kentucky brought it.. but damn Kansas... 11-56.. 19.6% from the field... 20% from 3.. and a horrible 55.6% from the line.

KU.. damn.

 

[Seth C]

How long until State Street starts burning couches?

No one gives a shit till the Final Four, bro. Been there. Might have an extra shot of Woodford tonight, but that's about it.

Damn.. Kentucky brought it.. but damn Kansas... 11-56.. 19.6% from the field... 20% from 3.. and a horrible 55.6% from the line.

KU.. damn.

That's what happens when you're exhausted 12 minutes in to the first half. Everything goes.

 

[iamblades]

Now I'm watching the two best bigs in the NBA go at it.

Go Brow and Boogie.

 

[NaturalHigh]

This was a hell of a statement. No way we go 40-0. I just want to win in March.
