This.

And he's only played 9minutes so far. Gonna be extremely fresh for us in the 2nd half. Bring it home Simmons

Cal can says what he wants, but LSU's defense had a lot to do with the UK numbers. They collapsed really well and did not permit many close shots.

Exactly, sitting the best pro prospect of the last 5-7 years is a great idea because fans don't understand basic logic

He better not take a break at all in the second half. Honestly, he should stretch, again....it'll be a 40 minute break by the time the second half starts.

Not trying to be THAT GUY, but we should be up 20+

I don't understand why Hornsby and Tone (after making 2 early layups) were on the bench so long. I can understand Ben and TQ maybe.

We're playing so bad, well we're playing good D

We're like 2-11 from the line I think, well we're 5-10 I know

Cal can go eat a dick

Also it's a Johnny rule. 2 and you sit

Can't believe Elbert Robinson started early this season.

Johnny has always sat players who have 2 fouls in the first half. A lot of coaches do. If the rest of the team wouldn't have played as well as they did he would have put him back in. Instead they played great he didn't pick up a 3rd foul and he is fresh for the second half. If you see a downside in that then you need to not watch this team anymore.

Victor needs to go in the gym, stand behind the line and shoot until his hands don't work.
Victor brings so much to the table that his FT shooting isn't a huge negative.

He's already fouled out twice this season. Saving that 3rd foul is huge. Dude is moron for not getting that.

Cal will never admit a team is just better or played better than his. It's always we didn't do this or that

Especially if he makes the basket before the foul.

Got to love the defensive effort so far. UK may have sucked first half, but the LSU defense pressure was top notch as well. That's a key for us.

All you're doing is accomplishing the same thing as him fouling out, by lowering his expected minutes. I don't care what happened with how shitty Kentucky played and we had Aaron Epps knock down a couple of 3s. He obviously doesn't need to play 40 minutes, but it's asinine to reduce the minutes of the best player in the gym for fear of his minutes being reduced. I realize this is an unpopular opinion and I realize coaches have stupid rules about this.

Coaches also have dumbass conventional wisdom about punting and FGs.
