March 26, 20179 yr That is going to be tough when they play the Ducks!!!!! Do you know what you are talking about???. Has he ever?
March 26, 20179 yr Why would Willis foul on the inbound. UK was down 1 with 40 seconds left. I don't think any team would foul in that situation. Bc he is a 52 percent free throw shooyer, it stops the clock and beats letting them milk the clock
March 26, 20179 yr We all knew going in that beating UCLA and Carolina back to back was gonna be extremely difficult. Proud of this bunch, they left it on the floor!
March 26, 20179 yr No obsession, just wanted him to stand around less and be more involved during the game instead the last minute. If Monk don't make those last two three's I bet you don't post this. Are you happy the way he play today. I am not!! But he did give us a chane to win. Remember, he got burnt on that run out also. Stand around? He was moving around the whole time on offense. UNC had their eye on him all game. They had a taller Jackson on him, and then also guys chipping and bumping and hedging out on him coming off screens. He rarely stood around. Their focus was not to let him beat them again. Which they did a great job of that even in the last minute, it took 2 tough contested shots for him to even score those baskets.
March 26, 20179 yr Well crud. Good game though. Monk and Fox just didn't have it for far too long and when Monk rediscovered it, it was too late. UNC has a heck of a team. I don't love automatically sitting guys with two fouls. That became a thing about 20 years ago and has become gospel. I also understand the risk and I get why coaches do it. It just seems like Kentucky would have benefited from mixing Fox in and out more during the first half.
March 26, 20179 yr UK freed up next weekend for us. Transylvania lacrosse men at home at 1 p.m. Saturday. (Shameless plug.)
March 26, 20179 yr UNC gets to take out another SEC next weekend. ACC rules football and basketball! I agree. I think UNC and USC meet in the final game and I think UNC wins it.
March 26, 20179 yr Heck of a game. Sucks, but what can ya do. Congrats @NKYknowitall. Pretty sure Luke Mayewas the last person they were worried about

March 26, 20179 yr I agree. I think UNC and USC meet in the final game and I think UNC wins it. That would bye neat. CArolina vs. Carolina.
March 26, 20179 yr The inept defense of Willis finally crushed the Cats. How do you leave your man in that situation?
March 26, 20179 yr Credit to Roy for not calling a timeout. I hate when coaches do that. Let the chaos happen.
March 26, 20179 yr Bc he is a 52 percent free throw shooyer, it stops the clock and beats letting them milk the clock I'm sorry but I don't know a team in the country or coach who fouls down 1 with 40 seconds left. Especially when the guy only caught the ball for a second before passing it down the court. Plus if I had to guess part of the reason he free throw percentage was bad was because of not playing to many minutes and hardly being in a rhythm like he has been the last couple games. If they foul internationally and he makes both then it goes down as a horrible decision.
