Mr Towns has been a little quiet in the scoring column of late. I look for him to score 15 against the Cards, this Saturday.

If he continues to get his blocked shots and rebound the ball, then the points will come.

He has slowed down on the offensive end of the court. He looks like he needs work on drills that will help increase his quickness around the basket.

I would bet however the coachs are working with him on a daily basis and it will show in his play.

If you look at his stats he isn't doing bad at all especially in rebounding where he is the second leading rebounder and is only 1 shy of WCS in total boards.

Towns is playing so unselfishly that I think when the game presents itself, he'll get his points!

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-24-2014, 03:08 PM:

I think so too.

Towns and Lyles are two HUGE keys for KY on Saturday!

I agree but you can make a case for all our Cats.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-24-2014, 04:39 PM:

I think like we have mentioned in another thread we need Booker and our 3 point threats to hit some shots when they zone us.

Louisville has 5 good starting 5, and after that, they struggle, but jones, blackshear, Harrell, rozier. can play with anyone, now I don't know how long, but their starters are not bad, this game will not be a blowout this will be a real close game, too close for me to call.

GB I think your right as playing them there in front of their fans give them a advantage but we definitely have the talent and most telling the depth. I think the refs will come into play too and if they call it like they should and call all the hacks and bumping we will win it big.

Posted by Green-Bean (Member # 13551) on 12-26-2014, 10:16 AM:

CMD I AGREE BUT A OLD COACH OF MINE ONCE TOLD ME, YOU HAVE TO PLAY THROUGH THE REFS, DONT PUT YOURSELF IN A POSITION TO LET REFS DECIDE GAME.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-26-2014, 11:50 AM:

G-B, you played for a very smart coach.

Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-26-2014, 12:09 PM:

If some key players get into foul trouble that could be one of the only places where the refs effect the out come of this one!

Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-26-2014, 12:14 PM:

Towns has such upside. Being able to step out and hit the mid-range or the three point shot just continues to take his stock higher and higher!

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-26-2014, 12:22 PM:

Towns has only shot five 3 pointers all year and made 1 of them. I don't think we can call him a 3 point threat.

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-26-2014, 12:24 PM:

I just hope the refs let them play and don't try to take over the game. I doubt that will happen however because I'm sure it will be one of the best crews out there.

Posted by m hamilton (Member # 127) on 12-26-2014, 12:41 PM:

Towns is as much a threat as Harrell is. He's hit 2!

Posted by catmandoo (Member # 1284) on 12-26-2014, 02:43 PM:

I'd say that's a draw and their 3's shouldn't effect the game much if any at all.
