It’s never easy with this team, is it? Kentucky is certainly getting better at gutting out hard-fought wins as the season wears on, and the best parts of this team sometimes don’t show up until late in the game. Against LSU, things didn’t start to heat up for the Wildcats until the second half.
To start the game, the Cats shot 31.6 percent from the floor (12-of-38) and 20 percent from the three-point line (2-10). They went 3-for-3 from the free throw line.
After John Calipari dropped the mic in his half-time interview with ESPN’s Marty Smith, he must have had some strong locker room words for his team.
