KY enters the game as a 7.5 point favorite, can KY get out of their midseason slump and pull off a victory today in Athens? I guess we are about to find out!
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 02-11-2023, 11:55 AM:
Starting 5 today for KY are; Reeves, Toppin, Oscar, Wallace, and Livingston
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 02-11-2023, 11:56 AM:
Wheeler and Fredrick will both be missing today's game. We're beginning to get a little thin at the guard spot all of the sudden!
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 02-11-2023, 11:57 AM:
Officials for today's game are, Tony Greene, Wil Howard, and Mike Nance
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 02-11-2023, 11:58 AM:
Look for Cal to call on Theiro to be the fill in at guard today
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 02-11-2023, 11:59 AM:
We play our game and we will be fine, if not we could be in trouble.
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 02-11-2023, 12:00 PM:
According to Tom Leach, there's a lot of blue in the he Steman Auditorium for the KY game today in Athens, GA!
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 02-11-2023, 12:01 PM:
Well, CMD, we needed Oscar to have a career game in Lexington to beat GA!

Cats down early, need a run!
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 02-11-2023, 12:09 PM:
Wallace already with 2 fouls so now we play the rest of teh half without a point guard! KY trails 6-2 with 16:35 to play in half
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 02-11-2023, 12:10 PM:

Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 02-11-2023, 12:14 PM:
KY's 1-8 from the floor to open the game!
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 02-11-2023, 12:16 PM:
I'd say we need to start making some baskets!

Posted by Tiptree (Member # 844) on 02-11-2023, 12:18 PM:
Our shot-clock awareness is just awful. Pitiful.
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 02-11-2023, 12:18 PM:
Wallace coming back into the game with 2 fouls and 14 minutes left on clock!
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 02-11-2023, 12:19 PM:
Cal is upset on the sidelines and he should be.
Posted by Tiptree (Member # 844) on 02-11-2023, 12:19 PM:
1 for 11 so far. Wow. 1984, anyone?
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 02-11-2023, 12:19 PM:
1-12 from the floor now 8% from the floor
Posted by Tiptree (Member # 844) on 02-11-2023, 12:19 PM:

Finally! A 3-pointer from Reeves.
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 02-11-2023, 12:21 PM:
We needed that !!!
Posted by Tiptree (Member # 844) on 02-11-2023, 12:21 PM:
That was good, but could easily been called a charge.
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 02-11-2023, 12:21 PM:
Oscar scores and gets fouled 13-10 GA leads with 11:08
Posted by Tiptree (Member # 844) on 02-11-2023, 12:23 PM:
Watching for the defensive change the announcers were talking about. They said Cal is trying to fix the problem that Tshiewbe simply cannot defend a ball screen play.
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 02-11-2023, 12:23 PM:
Oscar gets going and we get back into this game early.
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 02-11-2023, 12:24 PM:
KY now shooting 3-16 from the floor, 16%
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 02-11-2023, 12:25 PM:

Reeves is carrying us.
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 02-11-2023, 12:28 PM:
Cats only down 1!
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 02-11-2023, 12:29 PM:
Make that down 3!
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 02-11-2023, 12:29 PM:
Oscar has lost his midrange touch all together!
Posted by Tiptree (Member # 844) on 02-11-2023, 12:29 PM:
I like this combo on the floor. Not sure I have ever seen Thiero, Livingston, and Collins on the floor at the same time.
Posted by Tiptree (Member # 844) on 02-11-2023, 12:30 PM:
Thiero is a beast! Love his fight!
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 02-11-2023, 12:30 PM:
Theiro is working hard even though he misses a point blank bunny
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 02-11-2023, 12:30 PM:
Down 3 but at the line for 2
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 02-11-2023, 12:31 PM:
Theiro at line goes 2-2

Cats down one!
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 02-11-2023, 12:32 PM:
Rebound the BALL!
Posted by Tiptree (Member # 844) on 02-11-2023, 12:32 PM:
Why is Toppin ALWAYS 20 feet away from his man?
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 02-11-2023, 12:33 PM:
20-17 Georgia
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 02-11-2023, 12:34 PM:
Hopefully Cal will get them playing some "D".
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 02-11-2023, 12:34 PM:
If we could just get some shots to fall we would pull away easily in this game. The score is playing right into what GA wants to happen!
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 02-11-2023, 12:35 PM:
KY shooting 23% and Reeves has 4 of our 5 made baskets!
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 02-11-2023, 12:35 PM:
That was a much needed time-out. Now lets see if we can go on a run!
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 02-11-2023, 12:35 PM:
KY getting outrebounded 16-15 early

Reeves with a nice drive
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 02-11-2023, 12:38 PM:
For some reason the TV scoreboard is wrong it's a 3 point game 22-19 GA
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 02-11-2023, 12:38 PM:
They are shooting their free throws!
Posted by rlt4uk (Member # 3194) on 02-11-2023, 12:38 PM:
Georgia is beating us to death
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 02-11-2023, 12:38 PM:
Time for a run!!!!!-
Posted by rlt4uk (Member # 3194) on 02-11-2023, 12:39 PM:
Oscar fought hard on that play
Posted by Tiptree (Member # 844) on 02-11-2023, 12:39 PM:
Man, they are just mugging people in the paint, specifically Oscar, but anybody else too.
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 02-11-2023, 12:39 PM:
Oscar get's fouled trying for a put back basket
His FT's 2-2
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 02-11-2023, 12:39 PM:
Oscar goes 2-2 from the line
Posted by Tiptree (Member # 844) on 02-11-2023, 12:40 PM:
Collins got caught givin a little back. ![[Smile]](smile.gif)
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 02-11-2023, 12:40 PM:
Collins called for his 1st foul

Defense cats

Down one, need a stop!

Cats up by 1!!!!
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 02-11-2023, 12:42 PM:
Toppin for 2 KY leads for 1st time. Theiro called for foul his 1st
Posted by Tiptree (Member # 844) on 02-11-2023, 12:42 PM:
No need to silly fouls. Ugh.
Posted by rlt4uk (Member # 3194) on 02-11-2023, 12:42 PM:
Georgia doesn't miss free-throws
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 02-11-2023, 12:42 PM:
Now down by one after 2 made free throws

Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 02-11-2023, 12:43 PM:
THeiro fouled out top he'll go for 1+1 at the line
Posted by rlt4uk (Member # 3194) on 02-11-2023, 12:43 PM:
He got pushed
Posted by Tiptree (Member # 844) on 02-11-2023, 12:43 PM:
Lucky call, but we missed the front end of the 1-and-1
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 02-11-2023, 12:43 PM:
Theiro at line misses front end of 1+1
Posted by Tiptree (Member # 844) on 02-11-2023, 12:44 PM:
Toppin is settling. Need him to be agressive.
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 02-11-2023, 12:44 PM:
Cats down by 3 and lose the ball
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 02-11-2023, 12:44 PM:
KY trails by 3 with 4:58 to play and GA at the line
Posted by rlt4uk (Member # 3194) on 02-11-2023, 12:44 PM:
I wish we'd drive it to the hoop like Georgia
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 02-11-2023, 12:45 PM:
GA winning this game at the FT line Wallace back into the game
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 02-11-2023, 12:45 PM:
Their rebounding is much better than ours.
Posted by Tiptree (Member # 844) on 02-11-2023, 12:45 PM:
Driving it to the hoop should be Toppin's strength. Instead, he wants to shoot 17 footers.
Posted by rlt4uk (Member # 3194) on 02-11-2023, 12:45 PM:
Six straight by Georgia
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 02-11-2023, 12:45 PM:
Reeves for 2 he has 15 points
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 02-11-2023, 12:45 PM:
28-23 Georgia
Posted by Tiptree (Member # 844) on 02-11-2023, 12:46 PM:
Same play every time. Drive it in, lean into the chest of the UK player, and score.
What do we do? Take jumpers.
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 02-11-2023, 12:46 PM:
Down 30-25!
Posted by rlt4uk (Member # 3194) on 02-11-2023, 12:46 PM:
Wallace ain't himself
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 02-11-2023, 12:46 PM:
GA hitting a lot of circus shots today!
Posted by Tiptree (Member # 844) on 02-11-2023, 12:47 PM:
Another turnover, and then we foul them on defense.
Wow. This is NOT Kentucky basketball.
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 02-11-2023, 12:47 PM:
Theiro took that CHARGE what a Bad, BAD call!
Posted by rlt4uk (Member # 3194) on 02-11-2023, 12:48 PM:
Georgia is so aggressive. That's coaching
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 02-11-2023, 12:48 PM:
Cats got to get tough and start rebounding and making some basket!
Posted by Tiptree (Member # 844) on 02-11-2023, 12:48 PM:
Georgia's aggressive offense will pay off with calls. We should expect more calls to go their way.
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 02-11-2023, 12:49 PM:
Only 4 players have scored in this game. Reeves is 6-11 from the floor the rest of the team is 2-17
Posted by Tiptree (Member # 844) on 02-11-2023, 12:49 PM:
Trouble is, Georgia's aggressive defense isn't being called. Double whammy against us.
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 02-11-2023, 12:50 PM:
KY shooting just 28% from the floor so far today!
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 02-11-2023, 12:51 PM:
Cal has to get his players gets some fight in them!
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 02-11-2023, 12:51 PM:
GA now with 12 points form the FT line!
Livingsotn for 2
Posted by Tiptree (Member # 844) on 02-11-2023, 12:51 PM:
without a CJ and a less-than-effective Wallace, we need our other players to man up and play.
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 02-11-2023, 12:51 PM:
Oscar showed some fight on that basket!
Posted by Tiptree (Member # 844) on 02-11-2023, 12:52 PM:
Wow. Another circus shot falls for Georgia.
Feels like destiny...
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 02-11-2023, 12:52 PM:
KY trails by 9 now and we're throwing hte ball away!
Posted by Tiptree (Member # 844) on 02-11-2023, 12:52 PM:
Thiero is a fighter, but also proving to be a turnover machine. Ouch.
This is getting way out of hand.
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 02-11-2023, 12:53 PM:
Cats with another turn-over and basket by the Bulldogs
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 02-11-2023, 12:53 PM:
Ga on a 14-4 run after KY took the lead 23-22
Posted by rlt4uk (Member # 3194) on 02-11-2023, 12:54 PM:
Cal getting out coached again. Oscar is getting doubled and Cal dosen't know what to do
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 02-11-2023, 12:54 PM:
They better start making some baskets or this game will be over early!
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 02-11-2023, 12:54 PM:
Livingston for three
Posted by Tiptree (Member # 844) on 02-11-2023, 12:54 PM:
Livingston with a couple of big buckets.
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 02-11-2023, 12:55 PM:
Now that's a better 3!
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 02-11-2023, 12:55 PM:
Toppin from 18'
Posted by Tiptree (Member # 844) on 02-11-2023, 12:55 PM:
REally wish Toppin would take it inside.
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 02-11-2023, 12:55 PM:
Cats down 4 and looking better.
Posted by Tiptree (Member # 844) on 02-11-2023, 12:56 PM:
WTH? HOw did Toppin tip it out of bounds with NOBODY AROUND HIM?????
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 02-11-2023, 12:56 PM:
Ouch deep 3 hurt!
Posted by rlt4uk (Member # 3194) on 02-11-2023, 12:56 PM:
Same old sh_+

KKY with a turnover down 7 with 31 seconds ot play
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 02-11-2023, 12:57 PM:
Now we turn it over!
Posted by Tiptree (Member # 844) on 02-11-2023, 12:57 PM:
Wow. Another turnover.
Why are we pulling Tshiewbe so far out on the side of the paint? That is doing nothing, especially since we don't run to the rim behind him
Down 10 at the half... and it doesn't look promising.
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 02-11-2023, 12:57 PM:
Cats down by 10 at the half.
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 02-11-2023, 12:58 PM:
GA with back to back three's sends GA into the locker room with a 10 point lead, their largest of the game so far!
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 02-11-2023, 12:58 PM:
We had better play one heck of a good 2nd half if we expect a win!
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 02-11-2023, 12:59 PM:
We just can't play good defense!
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 02-11-2023, 12:59 PM:
KY shot 11-31 from the floor in the 1st half 4-10 from the 3pt land. Reeves is 6-11 while the rest of the team is 5-20
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 02-11-2023, 01:00 PM:
KY losing the rebounding battle 21-19
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 02-11-2023, 01:00 PM:
Down 10 so we need to have a big 2nd half!
Posted by Tiptree (Member # 844) on 02-11-2023, 01:01 PM:
Is it just me, or does it seem that this team is just... clueless?
On offense, we just can't take the ball to the hoop. Why? They are doubling Oscar!
On defense, we just can't stay with our man. Georgia isn't doing anything fancy. Just drive into the lane, and either shoot or pass to a WIDE OPEN shooter on the arc.
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 02-11-2023, 01:01 PM:
GA hit just 2 more FG's than KY both 2's but have 6 more made FT's than KY
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 02-11-2023, 01:02 PM:
GA has a player with 20 points in the 1st half
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 02-11-2023, 01:02 PM:
Cal better be all over them on their defense.
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 02-11-2023, 01:03 PM:
GA shot 42% from the floor in teh 1st half! hit just 4-13 from three but those last 2 baskets were huge!
Posted by Tiptree (Member # 844) on 02-11-2023, 01:04 PM:
CMD, I think it is too late for that. This team just doesn't have the intensity and focus on defense. And other than shooting threes, they are completely lost on offense.
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 02-11-2023, 01:04 PM:
The team looks awfully stagnant and needs to all play with passion!
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 02-11-2023, 01:09 PM:
Tip, your right and what really hurts they don't seem to get better! Some of that is probably coaching but most of it comes from a lack of heart!
Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 02-11-2023, 01:09 PM:
GA shot 12-12 from the FT line in that 1st half
Posted by ukman (Member # 3032) on 02-11-2023, 01:09 PM:
Unfortunately, I mad the 2 hour drive to the game with my daughter. What an ugly half. Good time with her, but Cal absolutely sucks. No adjustments to anything. And I'm sure he won't at half.

Honestly, I think the lack of passion stema front the guy they're playing. They have no confidence in him. I wouldn't be able to stand playing for him.

Really wonder what happened to Wallace today. He seems completely unfocused on offense. That was his first bucket today!
Too little, too late. UK will not get invited to the NCAA this year, and that is simply inexcusable.

Georgia at the line for 2!

Frederick was really missed. Not so much for his offense, although he must be respected by the defense. But for everything else he adds.
This is so sad. Our guys just have no fire.

Wallace scores and gets fouled

Cats at the line and make the score 75-68!

Some questions:
Why can't UK shoot freethrows like Georgia. And why doesn't the coaching staff make them shoot them in practice?
What is up with this team's character. There seems to be no cohesion, no "team".
Wallace is playing timid, with head down. What happened to him?
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 02-11-2023, 02:21 PM:
Final score 75-68!

KY loses by 7 and played their way out of teh NCAA Tourney!
Posted by Tiptree (Member # 844) on 02-11-2023, 02:22 PM:
UK loses 75-68. UK is out of the tournament.
I smell chemistry problems. Ever since Tshiewbe called out his teammates for not fighting, it seems to have gotten progressively worse.
So much talent, squandered.

Reeves had 15 points in 1st half and 5 in the second!

KY now 16-9 on the season with our team playing about as bad right now as we have all season
Posted by Tiptree (Member # 844) on 02-11-2023, 02:26 PM:
Why. Just forfeit them. If they can't play with pride and intensity, just go to class and stop embarrassing your fans.
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 02-11-2023, 02:27 PM:
To be honest they didn't have the talent they usually do and don't deserve to play in the NCAA tournament.
Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 02-11-2023, 02:30 PM:
Lets just hope we have some talent coming in for next season.

KY went 4 minutes without a basket and only 2 Oscar FT's for scoring after the 5:15 minute mark. Just an ugly game!

Just saw Hopkins had 29 and 9 today. Averaging 16,9, 3 on the season. Does Cal really see the right talent, or does he fall in love with certain guys and is blinded?

They have to have a single digit national rating or he's not very interested in playing them. It's a long time before next season gets here. Let's see if they all show up. I'd make a guess that the national ranking of at least two of the incoming kids won't prove out and they should have been ranked lower.
