Well Bledsoe started out looking like he would have an incredible game but then reverted to his old self. He closed out the half by committing two quick (stupid) fouls in the lane to close the half. He did have 9 points, 2 rebounds and an assist so maybe I should cut him some slack, but in close games those little mistakes will have big consequences.
Darius Miller is currently 2 for 3 from three. That can only bode well for Kentucky. Darnell Dodson is 2 for 2 from three. When those guys are hitting shots it is very difficult for anyone to play with us.
Patterson has made his allotted 1 for 2 from three as he has done in 10 games this year. Still he has no rebounds and is only 1 for 4 overall.
Kentucky finished the half shooting 53.8% overall and 50% from three to Florida’s 40.7% and 25% respectively. Also Kentucky went on a beautiful 10-0 run sans Cousins and Wall. Very good sign.
Overall a very satisfying half. Let’s see how the second half plays out.
