UK vs. Arizona State: Second Half Comment Thread


Kentucky will take a 32-31 lead into the second half of action with hopes of stretching this one out and putting the Sun Devils away. For that to happen, the Cats will need to shoot better than 1-for-11 from deep, among other things. (Are you here, Skal?)
Let’s chat below.

HIT A JUMP SHOT!!!!!!
Looks like the 08-09 team against WVU.
Sorry meant 09-10 team
Went back and looked for the play Alex got injured on. Seemed to happen on the fast break layup but didn’t seem major. Just taking big steps running down the court.
Guys, I just went back and watch the last couple of minutes Alex was in. There were 3 Different Pl. where he went up and came down tangled up with someone. But he was never limping, or favoring the knee at any point that I could see.
Sounds like he’ll be good to go this half though #FingersCrossed
I’ve bout had enough of seeing Jay Williams for the rest of the year.
Too damn many comercials
Radio is so far ahead of TV it’s ridiculous!
Make some shots, shall we?
PLEASE!!
PHEW
I am soooo happy!, ply is back..
But how did Ulis miss a free throw?
POYTHRESS!
JAMAL MURRAY MADE A FIELD GOAL!!!!!!
That hesitation though >>>>> putting Sun Devils on skates
Good hustling by Lee
Man this hard to watch at times
That guy drove right at Poythress’ bad knee, then tried to dunk on him. He was going to give him the layup, but HELL NO to the dunk
Alex sayeth no
That was a good block by AP!!
not much of a foul…
Not out of bounds…..
But Lee did travel
Skal just perfectly demonstrated “how to NOT guard the screener on a pick and roll”
Woof:
If it weren’t for the block, he’d be a Club Trillionaire
Ouch.
His toe was on the line Finna! Showed on slow mo replay! He pulled it back quick.
I’ll allow that. Lol
Remember the exhibition games when we were saying this might be Cal’s most fun team to watch? Yeah, me neither.
I love Dickie V but someone tell him we get it already. We heard him the first 10 times he said we aren’t elite.
Skal Labissi-WHERE
Brisco3
A 3!
I didn’t expect it, but Briscoe may be my favorite player on this team other than Ulis.
He’s been the playmaker so far this year.
Seven straight for Zay
Jamal Murray isn’t going to let him have all of the fun
Hopefully that will help Murray get on track.
I actually feel bad for Skal. He looks miserable on the bench.
Unfortunately, he looks more miserable on the floor. Less and less of a prospect and more and more of a project.
He’s a kid that hasn’t played very much REAL basketball that everyone hyped as the next AD and now are screaming obscenities at him from the stands! I wanted to bitch slap some jackass at the last game that was yelling at him!
ANYONE screaming obscenities at a college player should be thrown out of the arena.
I just don’t think Cal is doing him any favors at this point starting him. I know it would be a blow coming off of the bench but every team knows exactly how to play him. Put him on the Melvin Turpin Pizza sneak the pizza through the window diet, toughen him up some and work his way into the lineup.
Everyone should give Skal a break. I feel sorry for him he is trying so hard but just doesn’t have the experience of everyone else. He will get it!!
Agree. Giveth the kid some time. It taketh Karl a bit to adjust. Skal hath not the advantage of WCS to taketh his minutes (and fanfocus)
I want Skal to succeed so bad! I think he’ll get it together.
It looked like he was about to cry on the bench
I just wanted to give him a hug!
Y’all don’t even know how hard I just laughed on Willis’ make. #BanksOpen
Willis = Mutumbo
That three pointer was sooooooo Bullitt county.
I don’t know, I think the block might have been even more “Bullitt County”
Jack Frost! Errr…Dr. Evil?
It is sad. Considering his background this stage may be too big.
MARCUS LEE THE GOAT
LEE getteth after it
Awesome series by Willis there
Willis’ 3 was like the 8 ball bouncing around and in the corner pocket.
Lee should watch some old Dennis Rodman film. He could have the same game I think
I’m starting to not become too worried about Skal and his foul trouble. I feel for the kid, but he is not putting up any production when he goes up against someone who plays him tough.
Alex will not be denied
At least they suck at FT’s!
Should I trademark Foul Labissiere?
I think the Rupp announcer beat you to it about a month ago.
That is too mean! Be nice, Drew.
Cal just squawked
Cal sounded like a 7th grade girl on that scream
LOL never heard that noise from Cal
Matthews was hulking up!
Charles Matthews ladies and gentlemen!
Willis highlights: http://kentuckysportsradio.com/basketball-2/derek-willis-gets-it-done-on-both-ends/
Someone Vine cal’s scream. I missed it.
ASU can’t find the basket, one of their last 6 and 2 of their last 8
Cal is extra loud today
Flexeth, Doug
Cal looks like the red face emoji on my iPhone
Ok friends, time for me to get ready. We got this
Wiltjer!
Willis ballin today!
The guy sitting behind me REALLY wants the refs to give Bobby Hurley another bench warning
Drew, what’s it like sitting next to Larry? Any interesting stories you can share? Any you can’t?
Larry’s a good guy. I enjoy sitting by him. He’s one of the few people who will talk to me.
Murray is back
The weave they tried to run with the Twins is working well with these three guards…
Willis for player of the game
We bringeth the bigguns back
Maybe the UK 3 ball is back lets hope so
Word to that!
Skal altered that shot.
At least they were fighting for the rebound there! Each other but fighting none the less!
I liketh my team.
And Dukie V STILL had to remind us one more time just before the break that this isn’t the 2012 team. Yeesh.
Lets see a killer instinct here
Take that shirt off, Alex!!
Did Dukie V get to s American Pharoah?
So does this game give us a glimpse into how we can be effective against UL’s bigs?
Let’s see an Arizona end stink
Cats play better without Skal in the lineup sorry not a fan of skinny post players
Let’s see if this works…
We have a new “Referee Guy.” @RoushKSR @MrsTylerKSR pic.twitter.com/yvPkN1axA8
Nope… Was hoping it would paste the picture with the tweet.
Nick, is the ASU girl still there?
So will Derek think he has to keep his hair buzzed after the game he had today?
They keep talking about 4 missed FTs like those 4 pts made them lose lol
Anti-Whitaker bank shot
I love Alex Poythress!! Night everyone. One more W…..
I swore I wouldn’t say this, BUT … We may really need the big new boy to produce. Skal’s 0points,o rebounds,and 5 fouls in 13 min will not cut it.
