Ostensibly Hoops

In Kentucky's 6 losses, they've missed 68 free throws....... and Calipari said he wasn't concerned with free throw shooting. Maybe he might want to rethink that.

you can't really pin it down to one thing however I read where someone did some study and if UK was shooting in the low 70's as free throw %, they'd have 1 loss.

But the real issue with this team is assist to turnover ratio. Our backcourt is great at assists - for the other team.

Sean May commented on twitter that he was impressed by Kennedy Meeks stamina...

[eCat]

and his strong ankles

[goldenbear]

And yet even with sub-par talent and freshmen playing big minutes, we've managed to win 7 in a row despite Roy. Unbelievable...

Yes so much lack of talent only 6 or 7 McDonald all American

JMM is Junior

Leslie is a senior

Paige, Brice and JP are Sophomore

Meeks is only Freshman that big minutes

UNC will be a six seed at worse

Can't see either Michigan State or Wichita State making the FF.... the 'Cuse and Florida I'll give 'ya.

At this point, there is absolutely no evidence (no data points) that could lead anyone to rationally believe that Wichita State will not make the final four.

• They score a huge amount of points
• They are one of the best rebounding teams in the country
• Their field goal percentage is well above average
• and they kicked ass in the tourney last year (knocked off a 31-2 Gonzaga of all teams)

The fact that you put them in the FF is enough for me to know they'll lose in the 2nd round.

Kentucky can claim the first 3 of those listed and I'm sure not picking them for a spot in the Final Four either... Wichita State is a Sweet 16 team at best.

Would you care to put a $100 on that?

The major gripe I have with Calipari is his constant yelling and bitching at the players the entire game. IMO, he loves the spotlight when he's on the court making sure he's seen.... trying his best to copy the Pitino M.O. In the game last night, UK was playing great the first half and Cal was more or less letting them play and in the second half, he started his tirades on the players especially Poythress and the twins ( which they probably needed) and the team quit playing hard and paid too much attention to him out on the floor....as a result, a 22 pt lead went to 6. He needs to just sit and be quiet and let these players play through the rough stretches of the game and see what happens....just like Boeheim does. You'll never see him acting like Cal during a game. Cal's act is getting old...along with the OAD's.

That is cute....Pitino.....

[crotch]

I may have my gripes with Cal, but at least he doesn't act like that moron.... you guys must be proud.

[eCat]

I don't think you can say anything about OAD's until this year is over and even then if we flame out, we are cumulatively better than we have been in the last 18 years. People lump last year in with this team as if its some kind of carryover which is wrong.

We have the exact same record as the fab five at this point. I don't hold out much hope this team is gonna tear it up, but I'm not ready to bail on Cal or his approach two years removed from a national championship, 3 years removed from a final four and a league with UK NBA all stars.

Duke being 5th ranked

they have three good wins on the season Pitt, Michigan and UVA, I think they are better than UNC this year though if we pound it in to Meeks down low they have no one that can guard him.

[goldenbear]

That is a foul on CJ fair
with 2 seconds left

[Owlman]

undefeated, no longer and losing to such a poor team
