Cats shot 50% from 3 point land

Spud , Cactus J, and I could all drop 20 on Wesleyan. Nevertheless, good start. Gotta lot a kids who are capable of shooting the rock. Loved seeing Trent play well in limited action.

I’d love to have played on a team like this. It seemed like there was zero selfishness and we were always making the extra pass to get a wide open shot.

This was a complete game. Albeit an exhibition, and against a lesser opponent (but they did win 21 games last year and made the D2 Tournament), everything was just so fluid & free flowing. Instead of iso ball & dribbling the air out of the ball, it was great to see ball movement, making the extra pass to get a better wide-open shot, and they sure weren't shy about taking them.

This is a Pitino style offense on steroids. I know they're not going to make 21 3's every single game they play, but that's the one thing about Pope is he is going to get multiple guys involved. Defensively reminds a lot of Pitino teams also, active hands and ball pressure will be 2 key components.

I know it's just 1 game and doesn't count on the record books, but a lot to take away, obviously will be things to work on and shore up before the next game. But definitely a lot to be excited about for this season!

It may not count in the record books, but it reminded me of a time when I got very excited about Kentucky ball!!

Haven't been this excited in about 20+ years.

First time in a a long time I actually made sure to be in front of a tv for an exhibition game.

Nice performance by the Cat's!

Ky Wesleyan is a well coached team with a rich history of success.  Like 8 division 2 national titles.  Their head coach was on the staff of another team, that won a division 2 national title.

This was a really good quality opponent to open the season up with.  Been a good opponent for the regular season too.

I probably could drain a few from deep! Now the running up and down the court nonstop,  no way I could do that now! Not sure they'd have a oxygen tank, big enough for what I'd need, after that!
