November 7, 200916 yr I really don't like Patterson playing on the perimeter. Cousins came out strong early. He's been playing well, but I'll withold my excitement until he plays over someone that is 6'5''. Right now, he's just that much bigger than everyone else. Wall has shown a great ability to get to the hole (as expected), but has committed some careless, unforced turnovers. Palming, a walk, etc. Patterson had an awesome block towards the end of the half. I love the way this team gets on the floor. Perry Stevenson looks worse than I remember him. The DDM is not for him - at all. He could maybe play down low, but he has absolutely no chance around the perimeter. John Wall's jumper looks much better than I anticipated. He hit a 3 early & had a beautiful pull-up on a Wall / Patterson pick 'n' roll. Wall made most of his FT's, but this team's FT shooting ability worries me. Cousins looks like he may have a rough time from the strip.e Wall had 17 points, 2 rebounds & 6 assists at the half. Kentucky's press is going to be outstanding. When you consider how deep this team is, I think we'll press teams to death.
November 7, 200916 yr Yeah, they haven't said anything else about that. The only thing I can think of is a broken rib. It's his shoulder.
November 7, 200916 yr I am watching the game on a slight delay (I DVR'ed it.) Regardless, I started my post with about 2 minutes to go in the half. By the time I submitted my post, I had to edit it twice. In the last 30+ seconds, John Wall added another assist (to Jon Hood in the corner for a 3) and another 2 points (on a strong take to the basket.)
November 7, 200916 yr It's his shoulder. Ah, I thought they said it was his chest, but I hadn't heard that.
November 7, 200916 yr Cousins is the deep man on the press & has made 2 steals. He's looked much more athletic than I anticipated. It's easy to see why a man that big with that type of athleticism is such a highly touted prospect.
November 7, 200916 yr Author Thanks guys my wife appreciates the updates she gets to make smart ellic remrks to me.
November 7, 200916 yr I know these are UK announcers, but boy, they are dreadful. Macy is okay, Bromley is horrible.
November 7, 200916 yr Wall rebounded and took it down the floor so fast that when he scored TV thought it was Miller.:lol: They said they saw a 1 instead of an 11.
November 7, 200916 yr Wall rebounded and took it down the floor so fast that when he scored TV thought it was Miller.:lol: They said they saw a 1 instead of an 11. It was just Rob Bromley. Everybody else knew it was Wall.
November 7, 200916 yr It was just Rob Bromley. Everybody else knew it was Wall. Right. Macy was trying to cover for him.
November 7, 200916 yr Right. Macy was trying to cover for him. No, Bromley confused Macy. In all reality, Macy isn't much better than Bromley.
