Here's one of the games early in the schedule most had marked down as a loss.

KY comes into the game as a 2 point under dog according to Vegas. We'll see if the Cats are up for the road challenge in Baton Rouge tonight!

LSU is 18-7 and 9-3 in the league

We need to do a better job from long range if we want to win tonight!
 
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 02-18-2020, 09:03 PM:
 
It should be a good game but with Cats winning by 7-12 points.

Posted by ukman (Member # 3032) on 02-18-2020, 09:14 PM:
 
If both teams play smart on defense this could be an ugly offensive game. Just keep them in front of you and don't give up drives. And for the love of God, please don't have us start switching everything.

Posted by Trey Ball (Member # 332) on 02-18-2020, 09:35 PM:
 
Kentucky should just stop driving the ball. It’s obvious that they are about to get jobbed on the road again. I mean there have been at least 5 hard fouls that have not been called.

It’s Auburn all over again.

Hopefully this will be another case of a bad offensive first half, and then much better in the 2nd. We'll see.

I think they are a fine offensive team. They get a lot of great looks. They are just a crappy shooting team.

Posted by ukman (Member # 3032) on 02-18-2020, 09:45 PM:
 
Hagans has got to learn to shoot the ball. They are playing a good 4-5 feet off him and just daring him to shoot. That's why he can't penetrate as well anymore.
 
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 02-18-2020, 09:45 PM:

I’m usually critical of Sestina and the defensive end, but he has been very active tonight on defense. Good for him.

If we can't hit a jump shot, there's no way we'll win a championship.

Hagans, Quickly, and Maxey are 5-20. Can't believe we are leading. Hope we keep up the trend of poor shooting in the 1st, and score 40+ in the 2nd. As long as we don't give up 42. [Smile]

When you shoot 75% in a half there are not a lot of rebounds to be had on the offensive end. Sometimes rebounding stats can be very misleading. Plus LSU had 7 offensive rebounds off 11 UK block shots.

Wouldn't that be a rebounding wash on one end of the floor, which means we got our butts kicked on the other?

It shouldn't matter if it is a blocked shot or missed shot it's anybody's ball and LSU came up with it way more than we did.

75% in the second half and only win by 3?...we need to clean up something.

When LSU had more offensive rebounds than defensive it means they were following their missed shots because we weren't missing very many ourselves.

The only way I see Ky not winning the SEC is to lose to Auburn at home. Assuming both teams win out, the KY/Auburn winner will be SEC champs.

Ky can afford another lose and still win the SEC...it just can not be to Auburn!

Not when the ball is blocked out of bounds. That goes down as an offensive team rebound for LSU. It happened 4 times.

LSU was also rushing shots up that never hit the rim and would go to LSU player on the opposite side. On one trip they had three offensive rebounds that never hit the rim and they never scored either because they were just getting shots off over UK’s length, but they were not good shots.

I have zero problems with the rebounding deficit last night and my guess is Cal did not either. It was much different then other games where UK has been out rebounded. Sometimes the stats don’t tell the story of the game.

And no it doesn’t even out when UK shoots 75% in a half because they are a very good offensive rebounding team and there were no rebounds to be had for UK on the offensive end.
 
Posted by PaulCat (Member # 513) on 02-19-2020, 12:11 PM:
 
I only had issue with one play - the one where an LSU guy threw up a bad shot over Nick and then ran around Nick to get the rebound. I thought Cal might blow a gasket on that play. That was one rebound that definitely should not have gone to LSU.

But overall I agree with Trey - it's hard to rebound shots that go thru the basket.
[Smile]
 
Posted by Trey Ball (Member # 332) on 02-19-2020, 12:15 PM:
 
To make my point on how shooting 75% impacts the rebounding margin.

First half rebounding stats: UK 24 and LSU 25. Offensive rebounds for UK 11 and LSU offensive Rebounds 10. Both teams shot 31% from the field.

Since both teams are great offensive rebounding teams and one team shot 73.9% and the other team shot 47.1%, LSU had far more opportunities on the offensive glass out rebounding UK on the offensive glass 13 to 2 in the second half. I would also say that on 3 of those offensive rebounds Hagans and Quickley were clearly pushed in the back and out of the way by the LSU players and no foul was called. Bilas even mentioned it on two of those rebounds. Two others were dead ball offensive rebounds from blocked shots going out of bounds.

So first half teams shoot similar and the rebounding game is flat. Second half one team shoots lights out and the other doesn't and it leads to more offensive rebound opportunities for a great offesnive rebounding team.

Agree 100% on that play. I couldn't believe Richards let Williams get that ball.
 
Posted by Tiptree (Member # 844) on 02-19-2020, 12:34 PM:
 
I must say that either we stopped trying to feed the ball to Richards, or their collapsing defense was incredibly effective. Given the height mismatch, we should have passed the ball into the paint on every half-court set. Instead, despite Nick working his arse off to get position, the guards rarely got the ball to him.

Damn good to see Sestina hit a couple of threes. He had pretty much disappeared offensively recently. He really has to reign in his tendency to hack and push on defense.

Not doubting your word for a second TB, but honestly I've never heard that before. Player A attempts a shot, player B (the opponent) sends it to the 4th row, Player A's team get credit for an offensive rebound...Huh? What is the reasoning behind this rule?

So first half teams shoot similar and the rebounding game is flat. Second half one team shoots lights out and the other doesn't and it leads to more offensive rebound opportunities for a great offesnive rebounding team.

I get your reasoning TB, but seriously, 13-2...I hope Cal ain't happy with that.

Rebound after the block: Unless the ball goes out of bounds after a blocked shot, a rebound has to be credited toward someone. If the person blocking the shot subsequently also corrals and maintains control of the ball, he is given credit for both a block and a rebound.Jan 22, 2012

Not sure I agree with a block being counted as an offensive rebound for anybody if bLocked out of bounds. I think it is scored as a blocked shot and that is all. I looked in multiple places but the above is all I could find.

I am absolutely not a score keeper in basketball and no way an expert in basketball. I’m just a simple CIA spy presently living in N Korea trying to save the world.

I kept stats in high school for four years. A "team rebound" is very common. The team that gains possession of any loose ball rebound gets a team rebound.

LSU out-rebounded us 45-33 but we shot 47.5% field
to their 39.4 and we were 9-18 on 3's to their 7-20. They did shoot more f/t's, 1724 to our 12-16.

100% true. I know it from my playing days and I no it from keeping official score for college games. How else do you award possession when a ball goes out of bounds? It's not a turnover, it's not a foul, it's not an alternate possession. It's called a team offensive rebound.

If you don't believe me go check the official box score from last night. You can go and look at the 3:11 mark left in the game. It will say this:

3:11 E.J. Montgomery Block
3:11 LSU Offensive Rebound

If you remember the play he swatted the ball from behind and out of bounds. Ball is awarded to LSU as an offensive rebound and no player is credited with the rebound in the box score.
