jw 4 au 526 Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 Ok. We are lucky to only be down four. We (primarily Kess and Flan) had to work for it. Jabari and Green need to wake it up at half and come back to lead the second. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jAUSon 2,836 Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 So. We're getting stomped but it's a 4 point game at the half. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zeroforwinger 461 Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 Good close to the half. Jabari is a phenomenal talent, but he’s gotta value the ball more. Gotta know that Toppin is coming. That was a pretty 360 though 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDUBB4AU 5,305 Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 Bad half , could have been worse . Let’s make some adjustments and run em back to the bluegrass state Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarEagleHunter1221 1,710 Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 We are lucky it’s only 4. Auburn is beating Auburn badly. Sloppy, sloppy. We look completely overwhelmed to say the least. Vast majority of UKs points coming off very stupid TOs on our part. Jabari got to play more time. Love Flan buts he’d got the ball in his hands too much for us to win this game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boisnumber1 2,947 Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 Played the way we did and down 4?? I will take that all day long. Play well in the 2nd half and we got this. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUinMS9528 1,086 Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 Kessler is better than Oscar!!! If our guys settle down and play their game, they will come back and win this game in the 2nd half! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terrible shot I think they may be trying to give Green some rest and feel better with Flan than Zep. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wheeler has Zep stuck from 3/4 quarters of the court. Flan is having a easier job getting things initiated than either, but esp Zep. (Now, just because you create opportunities doesn't necessarily mean you're able to take advantage of them) 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flan just looks great one second, then the next, he's air balling it somewhere. Not there yet. He's doing good driving and dishing tho Edited January 22, 2022 by boisnumber1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronMan70 3,322 Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 Turnovers are killing us. Lazy telegraphed passes, bounce passes 3 feet out to a 6'11" guy, small guards dribbling into a crowd in the paint, big guys trying to dribble like a guard in the back court. Got to clean it up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jw 4 au 526 Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 There was a short period where we drove the lane and drew a couple of quick fouls. We need to start the second that way and see if we can get a guy or two in foul trouble. Who’s that guy, KD? Green maybe, but he looks shakey with the ball today. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randman5000 4,277 Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 Kentucky is very good both defensively, and offensively with their one on one matchups. This is a tough game. Going to take all we have! Looking for Bruce to make some adjustments 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mustache eagle 2,454 Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 We are shooting better. They have a few more rebounds but minimal. The real difference is 7-0 steals and 4-8 turnovers. we are also winning the fouls 6-2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grumps 3,706 Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 We are a young team who played poorly while taking the best shot from UK in the first half and we are down by four. I'd love to be up by fifteen, but that is not realistic. I have to believe that we will play better in the second half and if we do we win. We know how UK is attacking Jabari and I think we will have a plan for him to get more shots or get quick assists in the 2nd half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've got like 10 more FG attempts than we do right now and we're only down 8. We're fine. If anything we need better guard play and set up our offense. Yeah, maybe I'm over reacting. Kessler seems to be playing their center well. Jabari is hitting shots. Jaylin Williams has shown up. The two most glaring deficiencies to me are (1) Too many turnovers, not enough steals. (2) Wendell Green is playing out of control. BP will fix those at halftime, I hope. I was just hoping we would control this game from end to end. That hasn't happened.

Grumps 3,706 Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 The presence or absence of Tyty in the 2nd half will be very important. Without him we should tire out their guards and be strong late in the game. Green has to stay out of foul trouble. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
