November 20, 201312 yr Exactly. Knight and Teague were a mess the first 2-3 months and inconsistent. Even Wall, Rose, and Bledsoe to an extent. Always takes Cal until Jan/Feb until his PG starts to figure it out. BUT, when they do it's game over. Only time it hasn't happened was last year and I in no way want to compare Andrew to Ryan.
November 20, 201312 yr Exactly. Knight and Teague were a mess the first 2-3 months and inconsistent. And both are garbage in the NBA and should have stayed another year to get better.
November 20, 201312 yr Even Wall, Rose, and Bledsoe to an extent. Always takes Cal until Jan/Feb until his PG starts to figure it out. BUT, when they do it's game over. Only time it hasn't happened was last year and I in no way want to compare Andrew to Ryan. Please don't. Wall was hitting game winners in November and Bledsoe and Rose were clearly better than Knight, Teague and the Twins.
November 20, 201312 yr And both are garbage in the NBA and should have stayed another year to get better. That's a huge overstatement
November 20, 201312 yr And both are garbage in the NBA and should have stayed another year to get better. Teague should of stayed his stock could of rose last year. Knight's stock couldn't of got any higher of a draft spot. I wouldn't call Knight garbage either , he has been solid so far. Just hit some injuries.
November 20, 201312 yr The Harrison twins have trouble staying in front of dribblers. UTA was clearing the whole front court out and letting their guards drive.......and quite successfully, I thought. As long as Kentucky is, wouldn't it make sense to learn how to play a zone....or at least keep a big back to guard the rim?

As long as Kentucky is, wouldn't it make sense to learn how to play a zone....or at least keep a big back to guard the rim? Cal said this would be a good zone team but you can't teach everything in the first month. Maybe by seasons end they will play more zone.
November 20, 201312 yr Please don't. Wall was hitting game winners in November and Bledsoe and Rose were clearly better than Knight, Teague and the Twins. Wasn't Wall a turnover machine the first few months? Bledsoe had flashes but never was complete until Midway through conference play. Rose's first month you'd think he should go undrafted. The Harrison's will be fine.
November 20, 201312 yr Author After 5 college games, Wall was averaging 4.6 turnovers per game, but 6.6 assists per game. Andrew Harrison is averaging 2 turnovers per game vs. 3.6 assists per game.
November 20, 201312 yr And both are garbage in the NBA and should have stayed another year to get better. Someone clearly doesn't pay any attention to the NBA.
November 20, 201312 yr After 5 college games, Wall was averaging 4.6 turnovers per game, but 6.6 assists per game. Andrew Harrison is averaging 2 turnovers per game vs. 3.6 assists per game. This team is constructed quite a bit differently to with the offensive action developing off the ball in Randle's hands in the low post. Combine that with the fact that numerous guys can handle the ball in the open court, during transition. I don't really forsee Harrison's assist average raising much over the course of the season.
November 20, 201312 yr I was surprised as to how many open seats there was! I didn't see a lot of people selling tickets. Quite a few empty seats in the upper behind the bench.
November 20, 201312 yr I want to make sure I understand. Last night Andrew Harrison had 15 points, 6 assist, 2 turnovers, 7-8 on fts, and 2-2 on threes. Yet, today is the day we criticize him. Three days ago Aaron Harrison scored 27 points and today is the day we criticize him. On the "can't keep people in front of them" front. Let me ask this, who can keep people in front of them with the way games are being officiated? It seems to me that UK is making a concentrated effort to stay out of foul trouble and adjusting to the whistle.
