Like I said Good Def is great but you have to SCORE.

Did you watch them easily dunking like 6 balls in a row....defense did not play well AT ALL. UT scored 89 points for pete's sake.

Lofton was the difference maker... Thats a shocker

 

I disagree on that. Lofton averages 21 a game, he scored 23. What killed the Cats is allowing Crews and Chism score at will.

I have a feeling most of NKY wont be able to contribute too much to that. Sleeting like crazy here right now. Sure to lose power soon.

Really? You all lose power in sleet?

First all congrats to UT and Lofton on the win...I am not taking any moral victories just because we didn't give up, because we shouldn't be getting down by that much to begin with. To many times lately we let the other team get a big lead then we decide to really start playing, and that has to be fixed...

Not many teams are going win when they give up 89 points.

Nope....and now they are uphill at that magical "3-seed" some were boasting.

 

Just like you boasting about UofL getting a 3-seed if they win out?:sssh:

In more important news, I didn't get to watch anything but the 2nd half... Heard the latter part of the 1st on the radio.. Now was it my imagination or did I hear them say that Mark Coury was in? If I didn't imagine it, WHY?!?!

A defense that allows 89 points will never be considered to be playing good by me.

 

Call me crazy but i tend to agree, it seems UK either does one or another, play good offensivly and no defense or lock somebody down but doesnt score, if this team could put both together they would be dangerous.

WHAT????? They scored the points but they didn't play the D. That was my point.

 

Sorry didn't sound that way when I read it.

 

Now that I see what you meant. You didn't say anything different then I did.

I never said I would rather see scoring then Def... I said you have to be able to do both (Captain Obivous over here).

Yes he was and who knows why.:laugh:

And tonight is why I don't see a deep run in March. No consistency from game to game on either end...

Yeah played well... UK was out scored in the paint by a bunch of guards. D played good thou..... Like I said Good Def is great but you have to SCORE. Last time I checked points don't go on the board for stops, steals, or Blocked shots.

 

I know it was a frustrating game, but lay off the booze man.

I disagree on that. Lofton averages 21 a game, he scored 23. What killed the Cats is allowing Crews and Chism score at will.

23, 3 and 5...on a bad wheel? Keep telling yourself that.

Also I have been saying good things about Bradley when he has been playing good, but also I will put him down when he doesn't play so great and tonight he didn't play as good as he has been. Tonight he went back to what he did earlier in the year, and made some stupid decisions. He was shooting the ball good tonight and that helps for some of the bad decisions he made, but he cant have those silly mistakes that he did tonight...Also Jasper played a pretty good game tonight IMO, it was good to see him actually driving the ball to the hole some. When he does that the team is alot better off, but to many times this year in alot of games he dont do anything on offense and never drives the lane, and tonight he did and good things happened. He just needs to do that every game though....
