We now have the leader in the Player of the Year race and that is John Wall. The “Block that crushed Nashville” will be replayed to death. He just jumped up and basically caught the basketball. Two huge road wins this week as the Cats take a death grip on the SEC East. Now lets look at the boxscore.

[LIST]
[*]Patrick Patterson is back to being PPat with 13 points and 13 rebounds. Patterson hit the biggest shot of the game with the 3 in the corner to get us back in the ballgame. He went to war when we needed it. Patterson is a Kentucky legend and I wish he would just come on back for 1 more year. Might as well.
[*]DeMarcus only had 5 boards, but he had 19 points and got baskets when we needed them. I loved when the crowd booed him loudly throughout the game. That means you are good.
[*]The game shouldn’t have been this close if the Cats would have made their free throws. 17-30 for a frgid 56.7%. Why does Caliapari’s teams shoot free throws so poorly?
[*]Kentucky got their butts kicked on the boards 37-29. A definite mistep that I am sure will be cured before the next game. Have to hit the boards and be active every possession.
[*]John Wall’s stats were not spectacular, but he turned it on in OT. The block was an unreal display of a talented player making sure that his team was not going to lose. Needs to make more freethrows, John was 6-10.
[/LIST]Alot of people thought the Cats were going to lose at least one this week and we are 26-1. This team is getting better and better, I just wish they would quit making them so close!!
