Baylor - KY (merged)

[Vowelguy]

Baylor rolling early 20-7.

KY's offense is beyond horrific so far.
Baylor doing a good job of getting multiple scorers. And though Sims stats wont show it, she's had 3 passes that would've been assists but the player got fouled.

I want Baylor to win only because of Sims. Then they would get to play and lose to Notre Dame next round.

Not necessarily. I think Baylor would have a very good chance in that game.

 

[HuskyFan1125]

Me too.

For some reason I think Baylor could hang with ND just because of Sims!

 

[Vowelguy]

After starting 0-6, Sims is 6-8.
Also 4 asst and 0 TO.

Baylor has 8 assists on 13 baskets. KY has 1 asst on 8 baskets.

I don't think Baylor has the balance to hang with ND, but Sims is just great and a pleasure to watch.

 

[HuskyFan1125]

Just to keep in perspective, this is the same Kentucky team that beat #1 seeds South Carolina and Tennessee!

And we wonder why those #1 seeds struggled??


Hmmmmm

Three starters in foul trouble and still up 44-30 on KY? Props to Baylor.

 

[Vowelguy]

Ky is 8-33 from field.

 

[ChicagoGG]

ooh, double foul....life just got interesting....

 

[Vowelguy]

I thought it was a mistake to leave Sims in given her importance and just 2 mins to go. Precisely because cheap fouls and bad calls happen.

I think it was VERY cheap play by Goss. It seemed like they were trying to get a foul called, and they lucked out and got it.

 

[Bigpetunia]

Sims with three doesn't really matter. Game's already over. Except for Stallworth, KY looks terrible on both ends of the floor.

 

[pap49cba]

Game may be over already. Baylor up 49-32 at the half. Sims with 18 pts.

 

[easttexastrash]

That third foul on Sins was a joke.

 

[easttexastrash]

Davis and Cave are two freshmen that can finish in the paint. Good half for Cave!

a segment on Mulkey's outfits.... thats real silly

I agree and wish she had not bought in to it - Sorta belittles/stereotypes the game

Irish will destroy Baylor. Theynwill not shoot themselves in the foot as Kenyucky has done.

I thought it was funny, and they poked fun at some male coaches. And you get to see a fun, self deprecating aspect of Kim's personality that you don't normally see.

Baylor has ftwo players in double figures and on track to have two others in double figures. Not bad balance if you ask me.

 

[Vowelguy]

KY is 14-40 from 2-pt range (35%). Oy.
1-9 from 3.

 

[Vowelguy]

For those who have criticized Sims shooting and (supposed lack of) passing:

10-19 from field, 6 asst, 3 stls, 1 TO thru 30 mins

 

[ASweet3781]

What is the point of playing an up tempo style if your not that good at it?

Every time KY had a chance to get this to 10 and under they have had horrible rushed possessions.

She is generally taking very good shots in this game because while KY brings 40 minutes of dread, their actual half court defense is more like 40 minutes of dead. I have no problem with her taking as many good shots as she can, especially when she is 'on'. I do have problems with her taking 30 highly contested shots and hitting 10 which she has done in a few games when Baylor played a good half court defensive team.
