KY faces a huge opponent in UCLA today. I know from watching UCLA's previous game that they absolutely love to press all over the floor, so taking care of the basketball will be priority Number 1 today!
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 03:02 PM:
In the Cincy game where UCLA trailed in the last 5 minutes or so they started playing foul and three point attempts early. Like 5 minutes to go in the game. KY will have to hit their Free throws today in order to ice the game!
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 03:03 PM:
UCLA averages just over 82 points / game
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 03:04 PM:
THe Bruins also give up just over 76/game
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 03:06 PM:
UCLA has lost to Creighton, Michigan and Cincinnati so far this year!
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 03:07 PM:
In the past couple of meetings, we've had trouble containing Welsh! Our big boys will have to be conscious to where he is all day today!
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 03:08 PM:
I think we can handle their press.
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 03:10 PM:
Holiday's UCLA's leading scorer at 17.4/game
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 03:11 PM:
Welsh is second leading scorer with just over 13 Welsh also leading rebounder with just under 11 a game
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 03:12 PM:
We have the ball handlers to handle their press as long as they stay focused and don't get sloppy!
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 03:12 PM:
Welsh is good but would bet Cal will have us ready to hold his scoring down.
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 03:13 PM:
Their defense is not that good and we should be able to score on them.
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 03:14 PM:
Cal isn't who I'm worried about. As long as our boys don't get that baseline mentality we'll be fine.
What's baseline mentality you ask?
That's the amount of stuff a player forgets after the coach tells them and they step out onto the court. Step over the baseline and forget everything the coach said!
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 03:15 PM:
Cal will have our Cats ready and we should be able to score a lot of points.
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 03:16 PM:
We just need to play good defense....
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 03:16 PM:
Welsh, Hands and Ali all shoot over .450 from three point land. The big boys aren't afraid to shoot the three!
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 03:17 PM:
We have to try and get over screens verses going under high screens!
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 03:17 PM:
UCLA can score points but they also give up a lot of points.
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 03:19 PM:
UCLA shoots .350 as a team from three point land!
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 03:20 PM:
I bet Cal has gone over all the do's and don'ts.
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 03:21 PM:
UCLA will not hurt our Cat's shooting 3's.
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 03:21 PM:
Welsh is the only UCLA starter that hasn't attempted at leas 30 three's this season so far!
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 03:27 PM:
The Cats should be able to score points against UCLA's defense.
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 03:29 PM:
I've noticed until the KY crowd showed up, there wasn't hardly anyone in the building for the UNC vs OSU game!
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 03:30 PM:
As long as Green, Knox and Diallo get theirs, I like our chances!
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 03:31 PM:
Cats 7th in the AP rankings.
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 03:31 PM:
Looks like UNC is going to hang on and beat the Buckeyes
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 03:32 PM:
Vegas is saying the game will be played in the high 70's
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 03:36 PM:
It would be a big upset if UCLA won. It isn't going to happen
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 03:39 PM:
Next seasons CBS Sports Classic will be played in Chicago where KY will face UNC on Dec 22nd.
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 03:39 PM:

Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 03:40 PM:
After today's game the floor is being donated to the New Orleans YMCA!
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 03:41 PM:
OSU only scored 27 points in the first half.
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 03:49 PM:
After OSU and UNC were tied at 23, UNC went on an 18-4 run to blow that game wide open!
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 03:50 PM:
OSU scoring 45 points against UNC in the 2nd half was impressive however their defense gave up 45 points.
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 03:51 PM:
UCLA is missing 3 players form their original squad this year because they got stupid and trying to shop lift over in China!
Thankfully Ball was one of those players so we didn't have to put up with his fathers antics this season!
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 03:52 PM:
There haven't been any upsets so far today in Men's CBB
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 03:55 PM:
Got a feeling the Cats are going to play a good game today.
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 03:57 PM:
Cal says he wants to press UCLA today!
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 03:58 PM:
Knox goes into the game today with a 15.8 scoring average.
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 03:58 PM:
I think Welsh is in his 8th season at UCLA!!
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 03:59 PM:
Hope we do press.
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 03:59 PM:
Got as feeling we will get off to a fast start.
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 04:00 PM:
I think if our guards drive and dish to the big boys big guys down low today, UCLA may struggle holding our big buys down
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 04:01 PM:
We do have advantage down low.
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 04:02 PM:
Cal will use all our advantages.
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 04:02 PM:
Green is back in the starting line up today!
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 04:03 PM:
Shows and Clark are two of the officials I heard for todays game
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 04:03 PM:
This isn't the same UCLA team that started the season.
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 04:04 PM:
Our player age average is 19.3 years old.
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 04:04 PM:

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 04:05 PM:

Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 04:05 PM:
Holiday scores first
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 04:05 PM:
Can't give up to many 3's.
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 04:05 PM:

We need to go on a run and not look back.

KY still 1-7 from three point land!
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 04:46 PM:
We have to take advantage of their turn-overs.
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 04:47 PM:
We will start hitting our 3's real soon. I hope.

Missed a wide open 3!

Welsh travels before the shot! NO call!

KY's 8 point lead has been cut to 3

Need a couple of quick scores.
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 04:50 PM:
Nice follow for 2!
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 04:50 PM:
Knox with the follow up score
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 04:50 PM:
Ouch that hurt.
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 04:51 PM:
That 3 really hurt.
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 04:51 PM:
KY's let UCLA back in it!
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 04:52 PM:
What happened to our 8 point lead!
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 04:52 PM:
39-39 at the half UCLA finished on a 10-2 run
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 04:52 PM:
10-2 runs really hurt.
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 04:53 PM:
I said Pregame that UCLA can shot the three. They get open shots they're going to hit them!
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 04:53 PM:
Cal will have a lot to say about the last 2 minutes.
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 04:53 PM:
UCLA has 12 more points from the perimeter than KY 6-2
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 04:54 PM:
We have to get out on their shooters.
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 04:54 PM:
UCLA finished the half hitting 48% from the floor and 6-16 from 3 point land!
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 04:55 PM:
KY shot 39% from the floor!
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 04:55 PM:
Until we get out on their shooters they will knock down 3's.
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 04:56 PM:
KY attempted 8 more shots than UCLA and hit 0 more
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 04:56 PM:
We should be up a 46-50% from the field.

Diallo leads KY in scoring with 12
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 04:57 PM:
We've missed a lot of layups in this game!
Posted by ukman (Member # 3032) on 12-23-2017, 04:57 PM:
The cats had 4-5 shots that were in and out. Not sure how they doesn't go in. I think we will win this, but we looked real confused on defense in the last 2 minutes. Some looked like they were in zone and some in man. If we can pick up our defense I think we will win. Definitely need to know where Wilkes is. We completely lost him several times
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 04:57 PM:
Gabriel's KY's next leading scorer with 7 points
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 04:58 PM:
Knox and Richards both with 6 points!
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 04:58 PM:
We keep beating them on the boards and getting more shots we should win going away. We just have to shoot a better percentage.
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 04:58 PM:
Richards is the leading rebounder with 4
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 04:59 PM:
I felt in the last 2 minutes or so KY got three point shot happy. After Gabriel hit one everyone else thought they should throw one up there too!
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 04:59 PM:
We control Wilkes and we win but if we don't, ouch.
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 05:00 PM:
Cal will get them playing smart basketball in the 2nd half.
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 05:00 PM:
KY went 2-10 from three point land in that first half!
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 05:01 PM:
KY did go 5-6 from the FT line in the first half!
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 05:01 PM:
I would bet we will turn that 3 point shooting around in the 2nd half.
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 05:02 PM:
We need to drive more and we would get to the line a lot more.
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 05:02 PM:
KY with 9 assists on 16 made baskets
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 05:03 PM:
5 turnovers in the first half!
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 05:03 PM:
It will be interesting to see how Cal has them playing in the 2nd half.
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 05:03 PM:
Jones and Diallo had 2 fouls in the first half!
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 05:04 PM:
Our D needs to put more pressure on their shooters.
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 05:04 PM:
Wilkes and Holiday had 13 and 10 points respectively
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 05:04 PM:
Fouls are fine, no one in serious trouble.
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 05:05 PM:
Wiles and Holiday we knew were going to be the players we needed to stop.
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 05:06 PM:
Definitely need to stick tighter to our man on the defensive end of the floor!
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 05:07 PM:
Between the two of them they are 4-9 from three point land!
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 05:07 PM:
We need to go on a run and not look back.
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 05:08 PM:
Knox and Green both need more than 5 shot attempts each in this half!
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 05:08 PM:
3 pointers will kill you if you don't get out on their shooters.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 05:10 PM:
They flat out playing harder than we are.
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 05:11 PM:
We have to turn this game around real quick or it will be to late.
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 05:11 PM:
3 UCLA shooters average better than 45% from three point land, MY GUESS IS WE NEED TO GET OUT ON THE THREE POINT SHOOTER!!!

Not off to a good start. Lazy d.
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 05:13 PM:
We haven't come out of half time with much fire. I hope this time out Cal get's his players playing a lot harder.
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 05:13 PM:
UCLA averages 7 three's a game, they already have 8

Imo Washington is by far our laziest, and worst defender.

If we don't turn it around fast it will be to late.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 05:15 PM:
Gabriel with a nice basket.
Posted by ukman (Member # 3032) on 12-23-2017, 05:16 PM:
This right now is why we are not getting respect. If Cal wants this team to get respect this is a game they should win.

Missing free throws hurts bad.

Diallo with a basket.

KY turnover UUGGHH!!!
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 05:51 PM:
Can't make passes like that especially when your losing.

Green with only 2 points on the day!

If we want to pull this game out we got to do it now.
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 05:53 PM:
KY with their 7th turnover of the half, 12th of the game!
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 05:54 PM:
Green hasn't had a good game.
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 05:54 PM:
2 possession game with just over 3 minutes to play! We must get stops now!
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 05:54 PM:
Turn-overs are game killers.
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 05:55 PM:
We need stops!
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 05:55 PM:
Empty trips will cause you to lose late in a game and trailing!
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 05:55 PM:
That hurt bad!
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 05:56 PM:
Diallo scores and is fouled!
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 05:56 PM:
Great basket and a free throw.
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 05:56 PM:
Diallo at the line misses Gabriel rebounds!

Got to get some stops!
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 05:57 PM:
Not one of our better games.

KY now down 3 possessions!
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 05:58 PM:
They are making their free throws.
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 05:59 PM:
It's do or die time and we need some good breaks.
Posted by ukman (Member # 3032) on 12-23-2017, 05:59 PM:
I think we just waited too long to decide to play hard on d. Frustrating to see we may have beat ourselves.
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 06:00 PM:
Less than a minute to play!
Posted by ukman (Member # 3032) on 12-23-2017, 06:00 PM:
Ball game
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 06:00 PM:
That was a dagger!
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 06:01 PM:
Not a good game for the Cats.
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 06:01 PM:
Well, the rule of 71 still stands! THe general rule is whoever gets to 71 points first wins almost 95% of the time!
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 06:01 PM:
We have a lot of work to do.
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 06:02 PM:
I would've fouled them! Take my chances shooting three's on the other end!
Posted by ukman (Member # 3032) on 12-23-2017, 06:02 PM:
This will not get us any respect. I just hate when we lose because we just didn't play hard enough. Okay the game the way we dis the last 4 minutes and this game isn't close.
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 06:03 PM:
If we're not careful UL will do the same thing to us on Friday too!
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 06:04 PM:
Cal has some work to do to get this team playing better basketball.
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 06:04 PM:
Cincinnati handled this UCLA team easily! We've got a long way to go this season!
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 06:05 PM:
We have to play better against U of L.
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-23-2017, 06:05 PM:
UL will be favored on Friday!

Not a good game for the Cats

We are 9-2 for the season.
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 06:07 PM:
We play like this and UofL should be the favorite.
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 06:11 PM:
Diallo led us with 18 points
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 06:12 PM:
Gabriel and Richards both had 6 boards.
Posted by boomdaddy (Member # 2644) on 12-23-2017, 06:18 PM:
PG play was off and the defense was not where it needed to be. Knox was a no show in the first half on offense.
This is a young team. They had a bad night. I look for them to bounce back. It is funny how you can base your outlook on a game from how they played the game before. I thought UK would rough up this team based on the the previous game.
They didn't lay down when they got behind. Never like to see them lose, but they will improve.
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-23-2017, 06:19 PM:
We lost the 2nd half 44-36 and the game 83-75.
Posted by EnterpriseCat (Member # 2881) on 12-23-2017, 06:26 PM:
I was proud of their fight. I had pretty much given up any hope when UCLA went up 71-59, but the Cats fought back and if Knox’s 3 falls (and it went down and came out) it’s 74-73 with a minute to go. Guard play was poor the entire game and defensive rebounding killed us in the last 6 minutes. This team doesn’t look like a deep tournament run team at the moment, but we don’t have all of the pieces (Vanderbilt, Baker) yet either. I still like this team. Go Big Blue!
Posted by ProBlue (Member # 2944) on 12-23-2017, 06:55 PM:
you are right EnterpriseCat no guard play. No true point guard this year and it shows. Tyler Ulis was playing this year with this talent we have we would had easily won by 10. also no defense.
