UK vs. Wright State (Second Half Comment Thread)


Wright State kept it a little closer than Kentucky fans had hoped in the first half, hanging around with a 13-point deficit. The second half should be a different story if the Wildcats kick it into another gear and run away with this thing.
Tyler Ulis is on double-double watch with 10 points and four assists in the first half. Isaiah Briscoe and Skal Labissiere trail him in the point column with eight apiece.
Time for 20 more minutes of Kentucky basketball.

Blue shades dude is hung
Big, if true
Quite the close up on TV
Fewer turnovers this half, please!
Is Briscoe able to talk on defense while chewing on his mouthguard?
Maybe that’s why he keeps it in all the time…so he won’t trash talk
not as many whistles this game, at least…
sorry MTT, just saw your answer from earlier. Can’t say Ive had Good People. Did you go to Great Lakes Brewery when you were in Cleveland. They have really good beer, esp. IPA’s. Chillwave Double IPA from them is my favorite IPA
Didn’t get a chance to check that place out in Cleveland, but I’ll see if they have them at the local bodega
if you ever make it back there, you have to go, seriously. See if you can find some Bell’s Two Hearted Ale, they are out of Michigan, also extremely good
“string music” drink….
Can I make a suggestion, not related to this game? Okay. What if at the beginning of the month or the week you guys put up a calendar of any live radio shows scheduled for that month/week? I think people would like that so they could have more time to plan to attend.
I rarely know of them until the morning of
Me on Ulis’ last three: Too far, too far, too far, WHAT!!!!!!
Putteth these fools away, Cayts
Aaron Harrison in for the Hornets
#3 for Wright State has some interesting hair
If anyone is interested, I have a ton of posts on the first half thread……#SecondHalfThread
We are interested in anything you do.
Tyler, what did you decide about LA?
I’ll sit this one out and let it be a special bonding experience for you guys. #TeamPlayer
Mony Mony is the reason I don’t use the handrails in Rupp.
Just my opinion, but Baker and Dean Jr. are terrible. Terrible. How did Baker ever get started in this business? Somebody’s nephew?
They’re making this painful game more painful.
Blue Hairs are not very vocal tonight
Where is the fire and effort tonight. Cats sleep walking this game. Good thing we are playing these chumps even tho we making them look way better than they are.
Baker is awesome! (With Oscar).. Loves to poke the BigO
What has happened to Murray tonight?? Definitely and off night for him.
Murray hath a good distribution
Ambidexterous
Cal’s gotta be pissed after that defensive breakdown
amphibious
We are not a good defensive team at all.
wow! changing hands
Have the walk on’s played yet this season? I didn’t watch the two internet games but I feel like I haven’t seen them.
our D definitely needs some work
We play to the competition?
something to be said for that
Brook not having a great night
It won’t be on her highlight reel…
Drew and MTT, what are the chances Cal lands Thon Maker as well for next year?? I honestly would not be surprised
I thought UK had backed off Maker, but I could be wrong.
last i remember reading was Cal saying “let me know when you want to be recruited”
Dude behind the bench has a giant phone. Did he steal that from WorldWide Wes?
If it’s the blue shades guy, that’s not all that he has that is giant.
Good grief
I love Skal, but he is totally lost in defense…
If my name was “Edrice”, I’d go by Bam too.
Time for Cays to applyeth the gas
30 points for Grayson Allen tonight
How many did he have when he played a great defense?
Six. He had six points.
Cal has some work to do to get these guys play some defense. Tonight has been borderline pathetic. They are scoring every trip this second half.
What is Aaron Harrison’s number for the Hornets
that Yoho is pretty good, really.
zzZZZZzzzzZZZZZzzz
how a guys named Yoho didn’t endeth up at East Carolina is beyond me. #piratepuns
They need to just go ahead and roll over. Why draw this out?
Ah the bailout double tech.
Everyone agreed that this was one of the 2 or 3 worst teams we’ll play this year. How are we not crushing them?
Young team early in the season, after they just played a huge game. It happens.
I hope there are not many more Friday night games, these suck.
Murray maybe a hothead?
Love Murray, but he’s a bit of a hothead
Good thing he controlleth his heart beat, otherwise he might goeth nucular, as dubya wouldst say.
How can a Canadian be a hothead?
i dont mind a little attitude on the court though, cant be nice all the time
We always play bad when ever blue shades guy sits behind the bench.
Homie you want no part of Alex Poythress.
Headrub – imbibe
Meanwhile, Danville just beat Lexington Christian 56-14. Go Ads!

You showeth them alrighty
Ulis pass was ridiculous.
Wish we had good 3 point shooters to go with all these nice dribble drive players.
They’re better at the 3 pointers than last year.
So…who’s excited for that football game tomorrow night?
Don’t all reply at once!
I’m pumped about the in-studio pregame show!
I’m ready. Now it’s all Barker’s problem.
You all are doing the show in the studio?! Wow, this season has gotten depressing.
🙂
How was that not a foul? That dude threw Poythress to the floor and then jumped on him.
Willis is losing minutes…
Wonder how many thought UK wins by 40 tonight. I had picked 26 and that looks like it won’t be close.
It would be by at least 40 if Cal would ever play Barker…
Oh, look at you! Clever boy. Barker, indeed. Maybe we could get Dawson to draw up some schemes. He would have to be better at basketball lol
….and people are hitting the exits
ANOTHER FOUL?!?!
Cats beat Duke by 11 and now struggle to beat these duds by 20. Now Derrick fouls on a 3. He seems to be his own worst enemy.
Are you ever happy with anything???
OK I guess you are just overjoyed by this performance tonight huh?
No, but you are one of the most consistently negative people I have ever encountered in my life.
The officiating has killed all game flow.
This is ugly.
Briscoe obviously not good at the line.
Our lack of 3 point shooting is going to kill us this year.
Very poor game to watch and lots of work for this team to do. Duke looks WAY overrated by this measure.
Football team? What football team?
ESPN app keeps cutting Dave off mid sentence when going to commercial.
Make a freaking free-throw…..
So… did you know Ulis played football in high school?
(I miss Willie.)
Why can’t Poythress dunk a basketball?
Awesome Calipari GIF coming in 3…2…1…
Guys, when Pat Dye was at Auburn, he said a coach can only get a team up for about 4 games a year. Don’t worry about this margin of victory.
This game is hurting my eyes
Poythress has dorian baker hands all of a sudden…
Dude you are making me spit up reasonably pricey ale. Good material tonight!
MTT, does this one replace the chair spinning gif?
BTW, Cal is #TeamMuppet
At least we have #3. Our only consistent guy.
Hey, don’t put Alex down like that Chewy! Baker is a WHOLE differ net level
perhaps you are right…
Didn’t think this was ever going to end
Worst 15 point win ever!
I think Baker means 4th win without a loss. Not 3rd…
It’s a W folks. Cheer up. We’re going to be really good.
And GO CATS!!!
