  • If I am being real, each game UK manages to squeak out - if there are able to even win on Friday - is a blessing. On some level I'm ready for them to put me out of my misery. Wallace is not right

    Unreal that Ky was rewarded with a #6 seed and in Greensboro!!! Solidifies that the NCAA is all about the money involved.

This game is an @nikeman49 special.

Play some zone defense, they win. No zone - trouble.

Would just about say if a zone defense will help the chances for a win, will not happen.

The title run begins Friday.

If they get rid of Calipari!

Kentucky 77-72.

If I am being real, each game UK manages to squeak out - if there are able to even win on Friday - is a blessing. On some level I'm ready for them to put me out of my misery.

Wallace is not right. You could tell against Vandy he was hobbled. Not sure if he needs clean-up surgery or what on his knee, but the guy is laboring.

Frederick had a few games where he settled into a nice role, then his rib injury relegated him to being a slow-footed warm body that gets thrown on the court.

And Oscar. Again, I can't decide if he is the greatest worst player of all time, or the worst great player of all time, but I find him difficult to watch. For as great as he is at grabbing boards, you can abuse him on defense and against any length he folds like a cheap suit. And don't get me going on his passing or deficient court awareness when he has the ball.

So what about strengths of UK? They are relatively efficient on offense and every other game Reeves can carry the team. On defense their length on the perimeter can cause problems. Of course you get by on that first step Oscar will be there to ole you to the basket. 

UK is flawed like every other team they will go up against, so let the chips fall where they may. Root for madness.

Pretty good summary.  Who knows what will happen?  

The only thing we know for sure is Carolina won't be winning or losing.

I think its very simple....If UK can make some 3's, they will win.  (Can just about say this same thing throughout the tournament).

We are about to find out.

Providence ended the season on a down note but they had some quality wins this year and depending on which Providence team shows up it could be one and done for the Cats.

That's what it looks like to me.
