Welcome everyone. It is the local toy dealers KSR Postgame Show A heck of a win and a heck of a night for Kentucky basketball as they come back from an 18 point deficit and hit a shot that'll go in the in the regular season. Archives for Kentucky Malachi Moreno with our own Christian Leitner shot to get the victory 7574 on the road in a game that I'm not sure Kentucky really deserved to win, but they needed to win anyway and it's now 11 and 6 on the season, 2 and 2 in the SEC. I said, I tweeted after the game this was a season saver and I genuinely do think it was a season saver. I kind of was of the opinion that I was already thinking when we were down one and they went to shoot the free throws. My assumption was as I sure, I'm sure everybody's was that we were probably going to lose the game. And I kind of thought it is more likely than not now that we will not make the tournament. That was my, my mindset. And now after that win, I think it is a season saving win now. It's not like a season clinching win. I mean you, you still have a lot of stuff you're going to have to do to even make the tournament. But a loss tonight I think would have been completely a different situation. And the Cats had a miserable first half. Miserable first half, 22 points offense, scored two field goals in 14 minutes. It was just, it was horrible. But in the second half you saw the makings of a team that can be really good now. It required them to shoot the ball really well. They hit a bunch of threes. I think they hit eight in the, in the second half. Maybe not. But they started to share the ball. They started, they went with the lineup that I think is going to be what they have to do. I think they have to play three guards and then either Cam or Yellow vic at the 4 and, and moreno at the 5. Maybe a few minutes here and there for Garrison. I don't know what you do with Diabate. I really don't because I don't think he fits in now with what this team has to be. But it is clear that the smaller lineup just works more. It allows these guys. It gives maybe more most importantly, it gives away an Aberdeen driving lanes because that's clearly what they're better at. And I thought they played really well in the second half. Now, LSU hit some shots defensively. It wasn't great in the second half. And so you had a chance for the game to end up where you played really well in the second half. But because of your first half, you weren't going to win. But they get this play and that play will go down in the UK kind of lore. I mean, I always love these moments where something happens and you go, okay, I know that's one like kind of for the books and that Malachi Moreno shot. Malachi's kind of put himself in a history part of UK sports where there'll be collections of shots to win games and Malachi is now in them. I mean, just think about all the ones, you know, over the years. A lot of times they are, you know, these SEC game, Julius Randall's tip in against LSU at home. Reed Shepherd a couple years ago against Mississippi State. Eric Daniels on the road against Mississippi State. You know, there's obviously the ones over the years that have been in the tournament, but that one was pretty awesome with a cross, you know, full court pass. I cannot remember a UK game one on a full court pass ever. I would ask Billy, but he's many things. He's not really a UK basketball historian, but maybe somebody can tell me on the text machine. I can't remember a full court UK pass. I remember guys dribbling up the court like Nazi Muhammad against Vandy. Kelton Johnson hit a half quarter, but it was to send it to overtime against Seton Hall. But I can't remember a full quarter. So that one goes in the lore and what a huge shot. I mean that might be the difference in making the tournament and not is that play and Colin Chandler, I said when it happened that was one of the great passes of all time. And then they said in the post game, Malachi Moreno said that Billy, that it was not intended for one for him.
