Some of Calipari’s basketball breakdown was simple. The Cats missed too many layups. He showed the team every missed one-footer. There were at least 15. “It may have been 17. I stopped counting.” Calipari also used the film to pick apart the Cats’ abysmal transition defense.
“You saw us play North Carolina, who’s the fastest team in the country getting the ball from one end of the court to the other, and they didn’t get any. But Alabama goes and is dunking on us behind us? We really kind of reverted defensively. Against Louisville we threw 325 passes.
