I bet he has been called for 20 of them this year. Shows the lack of basketball IQ. It is so bad he can’t figure out how to set a simple screen.

THe last 1 he received this evening wasn't much of a moving screen. Replay shows he got there early and waited for contact!

I disagree. I thought he could have been called for two moving screens on that play. The first one they let go, but the second knee they did not.

Once again. Cal needs to say to himself, "This guy has been called for so many moving screens that I can't put him in a position to screen".

No he keeps calling the play for him to come and screen. It boggles my mind.

I'm done watching for the year. Absolutely zero improvement from the players and absolutely zero coaching from Cal and his lackluster staff of former players.

This has been a problem with UK big men the last several years. They never set a solid screen. They run up, and roll before the defender ever hits them. Seems like this would be something coaches would teach how to do correctly.

Trey with all due respect, that is not a "play" it is part of the offense where whomever is in the middle or the same side of the offense, that perssn will set a screen for the guard. Sarr is always too late or the guard is too soon. It breaks down because of that. (imo)

I tend to agree with Ed. Our timing on screens is terrible, with equal blame to the screeners and the guards.

That should be something the coaches can fix. It's a basic skill that the players should know, and if they don't, it should be able to be taught by a coach getting 9 million a year.

The problem with Sarr is that he always sticks his leg out at the last second. Just stand there! No need to do that. He gets set in time but he just can't stop that extra leg movement at the last second. In the SEC they'll call that all day. In the ACC and Big10 it'll never get called.

Yes I know. That being said. If I were the coach after seeing him continually not be able to set a high screen out in space I would tell him “If you attempt to set a screen out there you are coming out”. He simply cannot do it.

Sarr shouldn’t even be seeing the court now. Play your young guys and get ready for next year, but Cal is going to play him more to try and help him out as a professional.
