jlow Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 Think about this- the four guys in our top 2 rotations not mentioned in that mock are Poythress, Ulis, Booker and Marcus Lee. UK is, potentially (dare I say, likely), playing 10 NBA guys when the two platoons are 100% healthy. LOADED FOR BEAR!!!!!:popcorn: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Corleone Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 LOADED FOR BEAR!!!!!:popcorn: I agree but I heard Matt Jones say on his radio show yesterday that there are probably six guys who have played for Cal at UK who are better than anyone on this team.

UKMustangFan Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 ^Agree with 5 of them. Do not agree with Randle. Feel he was vastly overrated. JMO. I may throw Bledsoe into that group though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Anthony Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 Don't agree with Randle either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gametime Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 I'd have WCS ahead of Knight, Randle and MKG... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bugatti Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 I agree with the premise and it is also a big reason I worry about their long term success to raise a banner. Who is the guy on this team? For the posed question, who on this year's roster would you not trade Randle for? Going forward I am interested to see if KAT makes a leap during conference play. He took a big step last Saturday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The intangible qualities he brought are irreplaceable. It is also a little difficult to judge because we are comparing Freshman to a Junior in WCS. As a Freshman no way for WCS.

Wall Cousins MKG Davis Knight Randle Agree or disagree? Wall, Cousins, MKG, Davis and Bledsoe seem to be in another stratosphere at this time comparatively. But in time we may be mentioning some of the current players in the same breath. Who knows, its all relative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might be unfair considering age difference, but WCS brings a lot of the same things and is 6 inches taller... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Corleone Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 Wall, Cousins, MKG, Davis and Bledsoe seem to be in another stratosphere at this time comparatively. But in time we may be mentioning some of the current players in the same breath. Who knows, its all relative. It makes for great debate. I think Brandon knight is vastly underrated, I would take him over Bledsoe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlow Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 It makes for great debate. I think Brandon knight is vastly underrated, I would take him over Bledsoe Yeah, he is a tremendous player and did not have the overall supporting cast his freshman year that a couple other teams have had even with Jones and Lamb. I just think Bledsoe was so rough aroung the edges that his upside was huge. His overall athleticism and body type are what swayed me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't take me wrong, Bledsoe was very good at UK and is becoming a very solid NBA player but in college I'm not sure I put him ahead of current day WCS or Townes.
