GAME THREAD: No. 7 Alabama vs. Kentucky
- Thread starter Tony_Tsoukalas
- Start date
During a pregame interview with Crimson Tide Sports Network, Nate Oats said Dom Welch has been looking more explosive in practice: “If we’ve got him and Quinerly back to playing to their potential, this team has a chance to be pretty dangerous.”
Alabama is off to a 6-0 run, and Coleman Coliseum is rocking
We’ve started sprinkling in more sets and it’s laid off recently. If we can rebound, we have a great chance today.

After a fast start, Alabama has made just one of its last seven shots and hasn't made a field goal in 4:43

Bama players need to use pump fakes and get the defender in the air first. There's a few guys that just drive, then get to deep under the goal and throw something up instead of looking for contact.
Scrappy performance from Mark Sears so far, he has a team-high four rebounds and three assists for Alabama with 9:36 left in the half.
Somebody needs to get hot so others can feed off him. Bama has gone to sleep on offense.
Design a couple of plays to get 24 some open shots. He can't just go one on one against the best defensive teams and be successful.

Alabama has held Oscar Tshiebwe scoreless on 0-for-4 shooting with just one rebound so far.

Liking that Miller is going at people and absorbing contact and hanging and getting the shot off.
Might even get someone else wide open in the process….
At the time he made that post, he was 100% accurate

Bradley has to shoot the 3 better. Kentucky has backed off a dated him to at times. JQ’s
Minutes are big today.

Played fantastic defense the first half. Some of best defense played by Bama all year.
Bama usually plays a better 2nd half than 1st half.
If this team still has its best basketball out there in front of them, they gonna be really special.

Scoreless as in a 5 or 6 minute timespan, not the entire half. Your attempt at sarcasm needs work!
Sears has been a great pickup
Charles has played well but never like this. He plays like this and we are dangerous anywhere, anytime.

Mark Sears is putting together his best performance in an Alabama uniform. He has 8 points, five rebounds, four assists and four steals.

Not surprised. Saw him in high school. He’s a basketball player. But he didn’t jump high enough and dunk it cool enough for AJ.
What is Dykes doing? Recommending Oats for another job? Somebody walk over there and slap that guy!
Just get ready. It’s going to happen often. Every big job that comes open, he’s on the list.
Huntsville produces some well coached bball players .
.
He’s a really fun player to watch because he plays hard.
Too good to be labeled a “glue” player but that fits him
