January 18, 200917 yr I'd worry about more important things than that. Check the score...this game is over. Without Patterson, this team is in the lower half of a bad SEC. Without Meeks they are, but thats another discussion at another time. 48-28 Uk 12:53
January 18, 200917 yr There's a reason why they mention Harangoady and Griffin and then say "I'd throw Patterson in that group, as well." No way Patterson is included with those two IMO.
January 18, 200917 yr Without Meeks they are, but thats another discussion at another time. 48-28 Uk 12:53 Without either one of them they are. Without Patterson, teams could play a triangle and 2 with both guys on Meeks and probably get away with it. They would have no other threat to score besides a lay up or free throw. Without Meeks they would just clog the middle because he's the only one that can shoot. You said other player steped their game up during the first half. When in reality they are doing what they have to do to win. There's a big difference between stepping up and doing your job.
January 18, 200917 yr No way Patterson is included with those two IMO. And many, many people would disagree with you.
January 18, 200917 yr No way Patterson is included with those two IMO. Is that a joke or are you being serious? I'll take basically every analyst in the nation's opinon on the subject.
January 18, 200917 yr And many, many people would disagree with you. And they have the right to because everyone thinks differently. But Patterson in no way dominates like those two do espically Griffin. Pattersons back to the basket isnt going to work in the NBA, he needs to face up and take advantage of those guys who cant stop him but he'll never do it. He's in the same boat as Hansbarough IMO in that the never be more than role players in the league. 56-32 UK 9 to go.
January 18, 200917 yr Is that a joke or are you being serious? I'll take basically every analyst in the nation's opinon on the subject. You seem to think Im not saying Patterson isnt good, he is and UK wouldnt be where they are without him but he's not a Griffin and not being mentioned as a top pick by those analyst like the others are

He's in the same boat as Hansbarough IMO in that the never be more than role players in the league. 56-32 UK 9 to go. That's not his role in the system to be a face up player. He's being the 5. That's a back to the basket player. Have you seen how many jumpers he has made this season. Just about every jumper he takes from the FT line goes in. He has the ability to face up but that's not his role. He has to be the post up presence because UK has on one else with that ability at all.
January 18, 200917 yr You seem to think Im not saying Patterson isnt good, he is and UK wouldnt be where they are without him but he's not a Griffin and not being mentioned as a top pick by those analyst like the others are So a lottery pick isn't a top pick?
January 18, 200917 yr In looking at the bigger picture - UK is about to collect its 3rd straight double-digit conference win (2 of those on the road). That is a very impressive start to SEC play.
January 18, 200917 yr 61-34..... UK doing wiat they should with this team. It's time for Billy to put some other guys in the game, IMO
