Anyone going to be watching?? I am pumped, there are a TON of NBA people in Lexington this weekend (as proven by Jerry Buss's son Jesse getting arrested on Friday for alcohol intoxication - that's right LA don't cut Joe Crawford!!! and you won't get punished! ) Should be a good game... I hope its a good game and that the good guys (aka UK) win!
P.J. Hairston won't play for UNC. They will miss his outside shooting. I give the edge to UK. Will be interesting to see how Harrison Barnes performs against such an elite, athletic team. UH vs. USM for the C-USA championship starts at the same time. I'll try to watch both.
Hairston's playing and Barnes reacted by getting three early fouls Very good game so far Barnes is freaking unconscious - everything the guy puts up is going in... the only way to stop the dude is to get him on the bench!!
Man... what I would give to have anyone other than Clark Kellog to be the color on this game - man drives me batty
All Barnes shots have come from wide open 3's on either a loose ball or fastbreak. Gilchrist has shut him down when matched up 1 on 1
To be honest, I didn't even think UNC would make it a close game. UK just has way too much talent, everywhere on the floor. There's nothing they can't do. Props to UNC though on a one point loss AT Rupp Arena.
Bet you're happy, HayesFan Here is the game-winning block by Anthony Davis. Looking like the #1 pick. <iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/6YHzbtIrv1U" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
That was just a great game all around... and yes I'm thrilled! In fact I'm watching it again! Thanks for the clip... I'm about to share it on facebook
I want to see what Anthony Davis looked like at 6'2". Growing 10 inches in a couple years is bananas.
Well it was only 8 inches, but they have had interviews with him where he said his mom was getting so frustrated because she'd buy him pants and a month later they didn't fit LOL I couldn't find any picture of him before he grew.. he was a mid major recruit before he grew so there wasn't as much coverage.
That was a great game. Thankfully as I've gotten older, I've learned to enjoy games like that instead of getting pissed about the outcome. That said, if it was in March, I'd be pretty mad right about now! re: Anthony Davis and #1 pick... mehhhhhh. Did not really over impress me whatsoever.. or rather did not impress me to the point where I'd want to take him as the #1 pick. Definitely a lottery talent and probably top 10, but he wasn't someone that dominated that game.. and when we're talking about a #1 pick, that's what I expect: domination. Kentucky has a lot of talent, but the guy who stole the show for me was Darius Miller. I had no clue who this guy was, but he's the spark that helped lead Kentucky over Carolina. Gilchrist is solid but needs to get a lot better offensively.. Tony Allen'ish? Hopefully we play again in March.. and not at Kentucky to avoid all those missed travel calls!
