Five Things John Calipari Said After The Win

1. “Fight and finish.”

“That’s all I’m focused on right now,” Cal said, when asked the No. 1 thing he would say his team needs to work on. “Fight. What does that mean? That means when you’re playing against another guy, you’re not just exchanging baskets. You’re trying to dominate him. But listen, but you’ve got to help us dominate them. So you can’t just worry about dominating him, but you’ve got to dominate him. You’ve got to fight for a rebound. You don’t run from contact. How about this? He’s trying to bump you on a drive, well fight back and play through two bumps before you shoot it.
