Yeah it was bad how bad he was getting dominated. I was calling for him to come out before his incident. Since he can't use his body to his advantage and draw fouls he has to rely on his quickness...which he doesn't really have and his footwork skills aren't where it needs to be in order to be effective. That's where I miss JJ. I bet you he could have made some really quick post moves and spin off of hammons or hass.

He tries to play like a guard too often, instead of just going up strong. Drives me crazy.

For sure! After the first couple times he was denied around the rim he started avoiding body contact. That's the worse thing you can do because it leads to more off balance shots. Shaq is notorious for avoiding contact too, which is why he sucks around the rim.
 
Just got back home from the game. Very proud of the team and its heart. Great game. Suprised how much fan support we got from Kentucky fans. Read thru this thread. It was an embarrassment quite frankly. Certain people who constantly complain about ourfans proved that they are just as bad themselves. Not mentioning any names. You know who you are.

Getting very tired of people bashing Larry Davis when anything goes bad, and asking for Mick to return soon. Mick lost to a 12 seed Ivy League school as a 5 seed. Larry had his center ejected and could have had his team fall apart, but he kept them together and fought back to win in miraculous fashion. The season could have come crashing down after ECU and Tulane, but he didn't let it happen. The guy has done a great job and he is now undefeated in the NCAA. The team never quit on him. That says a ton!

Big props to these guys. No matter what happens Saturday, this will be huge leading into next season. Glad I got to see this in person.

Was also surprised at how many UK fans were rooting for UC. Wonder if it's because they just hate B10. But I also know a ton of UK fans (unfortunately) and most of them are partial UC fans too since they live in the area.
 
If he actually channeled his anger towards attacking the basket rather than throwing cheap shots he'd be unstoppable. He was completely intimidated by the 7 footers that all he tried to do was draw weak fouls instead of just attacking them.
To be fair him and Shaq were only ones trying bring it inside
 
That's true but one of the replay angles clearly showed Hammons saying something to Ellis before Ellis swung his elbow. I agree that Ellis can't react to stuff like that. I just wish I knew what Hammons said. It had to be dirty as hell
Told him go get lips fixed

So UK fans are better UC fans than UC fans. That's rough
 
Guys. This really played out perfectly. I still cant calm down from last night, I still cant believe that we ended up playing Purdue after getting called out by a purdue fan earlier this year. We are usually on the other end of games like that as far as last second daggers. But I still cant get over the idiot purdue fan ...And here it is if you want to have a big smile while reading his comments knowing that he is sitting at home, in his mothers basement, thinking "damn, I called them out and they beat us" KARMA BABY
