Keys to a win over Kentucky

[chris2183l]

there will be others. so dont be shocked. yeah they can jell and play their balls off in March and do it again. but for now we are not a top 20 team

Not a top 20 team lol? This was a road game against a really good Kentucky team that shot LIGHTS OUT. Omier and Bensley were in foul trouble early. Pack and Cleveland never got going. Don't see how you can make that assessment off of one game. If this type of performance continues then I'll be concerned

Because the young guys need to get some PT. L saw the game was over, he saw it as a teaching moment for the young guys.

Paul G and Robinson don't need any teaching moment.

They are complete non factors this year.

I really don’t like that we have a week plus off after this. Thank god it’s a cupcake next week. Just putrid all around tonight. Have a chance to get back on track next week

I thought we played Notre dame on sat

Watson could use more burn.

Yep. I think Joseph is better off the bench for his energy / leadership. I’d like more length / athletic ability on the court

Kansas is currently struggling against Eastern IL…so not every team has it all figured out just yet. We’re going to be ok.

11 points between Joseph, Pack, and Cleveland oooooof. Watson needs more PT. Him and George first two off the bench. Casey and Nwoko need to get it together. There will be games where Omier is in foul trouble. They have to eat minutes.

Coach L’s teams get better as the season goes on.

I had a feeling that the long layoff would be no bueno. A little humble pie can be a good thing from time to time.

Time to get back in the gym and go to work. Kentucky played out of their minds tonight. Hope we see them again down the line.

You want one of the starters to roll an ankle or twist a knee in a blowout loss? Why do the starters need to stay in at the end when it was clearly over? Let them sit there and soak in this *** kicking. Hopefully wake them up a bit.

I know I just didn't want to give up 100

23 bench points.

Awful, painful game. But Watson, George, Nwoko, and Casey got minutes that will make them better.

Schedule thread doesn’t show that game. But I see now that we do. Tough game after this.

Kentucky had the #1 recruiting class they’re on another level with talent

Nothing wrong with letting them get a taste of the floor. Especially on a night like this, where it was over a long, long time before they hit the floor. Also gives you a chance to see whether those guys have that competitive fire.

 

[AmherstCane]

Nwoko left a lot of meat on the bone but still finished 8 pts 6 rebounds.

Lights were too bright for him early in the game but he settled down nicely.

 

[JB7-FTW]

Pack with an awful game. As much hype as he gets, this type of showing against a top team is what will keep him from getting drafted. Absolute negative on the floor tonight and usually is when he's not lighting it up from 3. Don't know what to say other than he needs to step up or George should cut into his minutes as more of a ballhandler, relegating Pack to an off ball type role with reduced minutes.
