Recently, The Cats have been struggling to play together as a team and win games. As a fan, it was not easy watching Kentucky lose to Georgia and Alabama, which are teams that should not be on the same floor as Kentucky. Although UK has had a few tough losses, Calapari said that his team could still have a "special season" if his players can start playing to the best of their abilities.
All of this being said, UK will not be a successful team unless someone can teach Terrence Jones (Freshman) how to be a team player. He is an extremely athletic young player with all of the talent that anyone could ask for; however, he is extremely selfish. Jones ALWAYS looks to shoot before he looks to pass. If he does not have an open shot, he will generally throw up a crazy shot that he has no buisness taking, or he will attempt to drive to the lane. Calapari showed his disgust in Jones' decision-making skills by yelling some "bad words" at Terrence during the loss to Alabama.
The Cats are struggling now, but if the can come together and play solid team basketball, this season will turn around for Calapari and his team.
