LEXINGTON, Ky. — Quade Green was mad about one thing, and John Calipari was really mad about another.
In the final minutes of Kentucky basketball's 81-71 win Saturday against Alabama, Green, the freshman point guard who was otherwise solid, gave up a layup and missed a free throw.
"Was he mad about the layup or the free throw?" Calipari said in the postgame press conference. "The free throw. And I went nuts. That's our problem right now. You're more concerned about you than us ... That's what we're kind of busting through right now."
Green disputed Calipari's account, saying, "I was definitely mad about both of them.
