John Calipari Is Overrated

[Walt]

I'm guessing he should have went out there and shot the fukking free throws for them. I like you, breh, but you've got no fukking clue how hard it is to get a team of 5 dumb freshman to play together.

I'm not about to shed tears and pass out sympathy cards for Cal having the burden of blending the best talent in the nation together year after year. His talent advantage is considerable, and he just lost to a second year coach with worse talent. Kentucky had the best, 3rd best, 4th best, and 5th best player on the court. "Great" coaches win that game, or there's no point in using the term "great" ever, at all.

So he should have shot the free throws for them. Gotcha.

Having the best players = automatic win. They weren't the best players a month ago. They were just a bunch of overrated dudes. Spare me with that shyt

no, they not getting the same talent he's getting...they might get 2 maybe 3 top players a year, this cat gets 5-6 at a time...i mean, you do realize this was rated as the best recruiting class ever right?....he had 5 outta the top 10-15...it was even more highly rated than the fab 5, just think about that for a sec...

on a side note: if he could talk all them into coming back, they'd go undefeated, easily....that's how much potential talent this team has...

Harrisson Twins are average, James Young is decent, Randle is the only NBA Top Prospect they have.. Duke, Kansas, had more NBA Talent this year.

They were the absolute best recruiting class in the nation, and he was losing to fukking bum teams with them, so you fukking spare me. Y'all got hype over them making a run to the title game, but the end result is another season with overwhelming talent and no title. Kentucky isn't Michigan, it isn't even North Carlolina or dook. You have NBA bodies on the floor, mediocre conference play and lack of titles don't fukking cut it, period.

Spare me with this "woe is my team with 8 All-Americans" bullchit...which other school would you have traded your roster for?

that's hindsight and you downgrading them...coming in, they were the most highly rated recruiting class ever which means they had talent...also, even though you call them avg and decent, the Harrison twins and young will both be drafted in the 1st round when they declare...so that would be 4 outta the starting 5 taken in the first round...even the center might get taken in the 1st round when he declares...

and no the hell duke and Kansas didn't...please name the nba talent on duke besides parker and hood...and name the talent on Kansas besides embiid and parker....i'm not trying to shyt on the other cats on those teams, they might eventually get shots/tryouts, but the ones I named are the only definite get a shot in the league cats, and uk got more than that...

And then they went on a run and beat 4 of the top fukking teams in the country. You're acting like this loss negates that shyt like any other stupid reactionary nikka. You're a fukking idiot if you think their talent automatically translates to wins on the court. Literally fukking stupid. Football was your sport tho, so I guess it's understandable you don't know what the fukk you're talking about.

look at all the mock drafts, and only one of the Harrison's is a late first round pick, the other in the 2nd round... not athletic, cant shoot, = recipe for disaster in the nba.

Embid and Parker are TOP 5 PICKS. that's all you need.

Duke, Kansas, Carolina, UCONN, etc.. all these teams get 5 star recruits....

Why do you dumb shyts act like I'm crying? They went on a historic run, went to the title game, and lost because of free throws. Not because of shytty scheme. Not because they just got completely out coached. Blame cal all you want. Sure he deserves some of it, but not all of it. You're just exposing yourself

Seriously, anybody who watched them play is fooling themselves if they think we have more than uhhh...1 lottery pick on this team this year. This isn't the John Wall squad. Not the AD squad with 4 dudes drafted in the 1st round. Who gives a fukk what their ratings were coming out of high school? Plenty of mcdonalds all Americans never amount to shyt.

Now if the bolded is true, ask yourself:

How many times has Cal got deep in the tourney and FTs are what cost his teams??
Why hasn't he after all these years found a way to coach up FTs?? Isn't that what great coaches do?

Most of us agree they shouldnt get drafted in the first round. Sadly, they will though..

Nah, fam. I agree 100% with you there, thus some of the blame. Dude's teams are horrible at free throws and he seriously has to fix that fukking shyt.

Sorry for coming off as an a$$hole too. To you and @Walt . shyts just got me feelin some type of way rite now

This is just lame rage. Your team lost, so I ge it. I played one season of football in high school. I was an all conference basketball player who played at a D-1 school. Get a grip. Cal is fine. He's just not great.
