Kentucky 59 Princeton 57

Brandon Knight forgets for 39:58 that there's a game today, but swoops in to save the day!

Something has to be wrong with Knight. He just didn't look himself the entire game. Is he sick? He just played tentative the whole game and just looked tired overall. However, he did step up big with that last basket.

At this point, you take them however you can get them. Just survive and advance. A win is a win whether it be by 30 or 1.

Terrence Jones is a good college player and nice kid, but the NBA will eat him alive. Don't go. Not yet. Come ON, man

At least more people are starting to understand.

Amazing. The old dudes hold out long enough for Knight to finally make a big one! Cal had to run some unusual lineups since Knight couldn't score and Jones couldn't defend. He had the right guys in when it mattered though.

What's important is that ONE person understand it.

I've been saying it for a while. Not big enough/athletic enough for the NBA 4 and not skilled enough for the NBA 3.

All you can say is "survive and advance".

It is hard to say whether Jones is ready for the NBA because he obviously has already quit playing basketball for UK and started thinking about the NBA. His lack of effort and intensity is mind boggling.

^ He's been checked out for a while now. He's going to go to the NBA, but he is definitely not ready.

I agree. If I am a scout watching him play right now, his stock is dropping fast. If he drops to this level of effort during the NCAA tournament because the NBA is calling, what is he going to do when he gets that big paycheck?

PPat called out both Knight and Jones without using their name saying they need to play better against WVU.

He has the body, potential, and plays with a Freshman mentality, so we disagree in that regard he can physically do it; but he has not yet developed any maturity or intangibles which is equally important in the NBA.

What time is the start of Saturdays game?

I hope UK fans are thankful for Harrelson; he was ENORMOUS today. Without him, Princeton would have won.
