The Pembroke Postgame Report.

Brian Williams had a lot of success after he lost a lot of weight and got in shape last year which was also due to some discipline. The difference is that he's slacked off since then. If he had kept it up he'd be a monster right now. Maybe he should get in some trouble again.

In the last four games, Williams is averaging 11.8 points and 8.5 rebounds. Just FYI
 
I think Tobias showed tonight he is not ready for the NBA.

Tonight? really. I have seen it all year. Outside of about 10-15 mins in the bama game he has feasted on weaker players while being owned by equal or better. Jones destroyed him. Anyone who tabed him as a 5 star are out of their minds. Until he demands the ball, learns somesort of low post moves and stops dribbling 60+ feet from the basket he will always be an almost.
 
1. That's a thoroughly underwhelming effort in a big game. There's no excuse for a lack of energy playing that opponent.
2. Tennessee certainly didn't appear to get any lift from Bruce Pearl's return. They better find some answers by Saturday.
3. Scotty Hopson showed some fight tonight. He was certainly better than most of his teammates.
4. Tobias Harris played as poorly as he has all season. The game was just plain too big for him tonight.
5. ESPN has gone around the bend in their coverage of the Heat. I'm pretty sure we can survive without pass by pass updates on the Bottom Line.
6. There's no excuse for a guy as limited as Josh Harrellson coming from 20 feet out to get an offensive rebound. That's just ridiculous.
7. It's a good thing Darius Miller didn't shoot it as he normally does against Tennessee. Had he done that, the margin would have been around 30.
8. DeAndre Liggins is the most underrated player in the SEC. He's going to make a very nice living playing professionally.
9. Josh Bone took advantage of his minutes. Here's hoping he gets more.
10. John Calipari's NBA experience showed through tonight. UK didn't guard Tennessee's offensive stiffs and that put them in position to strangle off UT's attack.

Offensive stiffs?? Why Fields and S. Pearl have move offensive moves than Earl Monroe.:eek:lol:
 
So you're saying that Harrellson will shoot 87.5% throughout the tournament?

That has nothing to do with anything I said, as I never mentioned anything about points or the tournament. Quit making up crap to try and support your gibberish.
 
The ball has to be in the cylinder or off the backboard on its way to the rim for that to be goaltending. That ball was not even in the zip code of the rim. No way we deserved a goaltending call there.

The ball was off the backbaord and it doesn't matter if it was going in...the rule is that you cannot grab the rim when the ball is in the air or off the backboard. Missing boat if you think quality of shot affects rather it's goaltending or not - if that was the rule then every player would just start grabbing the rim and shaking the goal on every shot.

absurd. That was basket interference, period. You can't touch the rim with a ball on the board. His moving the rim changed the trajectory of the ball off the glass. If that were legal, people would always slap the board when the ball hit it.

+1! I posted a similar reply before I saw this reponse.

3. It wasn't his best stat line, but I thought it was one of the better games I've seen Scotty play in orange.

8. I bet if you would have told Pearl that Knight and Jones would have been held in check, forcing Liggins and Harrelson to beat him, he would have been pretty happy with his chances. UK's supporting cast was far better than UT's.

10. It was a better scheme, better effort, and better execution. Somebody on UT's staff needs to watch that tape with the intent of learning the definition of help defense.

Of course, it's much easier to design an effective help defense scheme when you can ignore one or two offensive players. both head coaches with substantial NBA experience UT has faced this year have done exactly that.
