Sometimes basketball can be a simple sport. It’s really about getting buckets and scoring more points than the other team at the end of the day. All the signs indicated that the Kentucky was this team in the match on Saturday with the Arkansas.
Games are not won on paper.
The Razorbacks in difficulty delivered their best performance of the season in a match where they have turned off the lights to Rupp Arena. The defense that flees from Kentucky was again exhibited in the fifth defeat of the program against an unasized team.
John Calipari ‘The S team scored 89 points in 67 possessions on .552 / .520 / .750 for shooting cuts. The pigs draw less than 30% out of three in play of the dry, but that did not prevent them from pouring 13 long-range brands in the victory of 89-79. Adou Thiero opened the way with 21 points out of 10 goal attempts on the ground, but the other four starters combined to draw 11 out of 20 from three points. Former Kentucky players Zvonimir Ivisic (14 points, 4 rebounds, +10) and DJ Wagner (17 points, 8 assists, +5) Each has undoubtedly experienced their best performance of the season.
Porks were one of the worst stupid offenses and posted 1.33 points per possession in the big time match. Kentucky’s defense is a massive problem right now.
The Kentucky offensive scored 79 points in 73 possessions but did not have its greatest performance. Turnover (14) remain a problem. The CATS pulled 51.3% out of two and 43.5% compared to three, but that was not enough to win the match. Balloon safety played a big role. Jaxson Robinson (20 points out of 9 attempts at the field) and Amari Williams (22 points out of 13 goal attempts on the field) Each has experienced major matches, but this production was not enough to spend in the United Kingdom over the bump.
Mark PopeThe offensive will mark almost everyone in university basketball, but cats will not have an offensive match every night. Finally, the defense must produce. This means generating stops. Kentucky needed this end of speech to deliver against a bad offense to Arkansas.
This did not occur on Saturday evening in Rupp Arena.
