It would be a very interesting scenario.. right now he's playing with another point guard, but I'm not sure you could do that in Sloan's system. At any rate, I would be a very depressed cookie if he ended up in Utah.
That IU/UK first half was awesome. It was great watching IU jump out to the big lead but I have no illusions they will win this game. Wall is everything he's cracked up to be. I can see Bledsoe in the NBA as a scorer off the bench. Not so sure yet about Cousins at the next level.
Cousins is still VERY immature... in actions on and off the court. He's like an 15 yr old in a college freshman's very large body. Some kids are just more mature than others and he needs at least another year in college... imho. Wall is much more mature mentally and even Bledsoe and Orton have better team bball skills as frosh. However, Cousins has a lot of raw talent. He just needs to harness it and learn how to be a player rather than an exceptional talent. You say that about IU, but I haven't been nervous about losing a game yet. Been frustrated a lot (I can't imagine how Coach Cal feels) but at this point, I keeps seeing them catch up and pull away. I told my dad today... watch UK is a lot like watching a pro team. Not because of the talent level, but because of the way they go in runs. Most college teams don't go on 10-0 to 20-0 runs as much as UK does.
Same here. I love the Rockets winning, but with every win, John Wall gets pushed further and further away... Oh well.
The UK team is so athletic it's scary. This allows them to gamble and press and double on defense without much risk. That is an incredible advantage. Their speed on the break is crazy too.
This UK team is just insane. Now with John Wall... I say they go undefeated. Bold statement, but John Wall is a bold player.
Okay this is just nuts... John Wall #1 on NBA.com http://www.nba.com/2009/news/features/david_aldridge/12/14/morning.tip/?ls=iref:nbahpt1
At least the Knicks look like they have some life in recent games. And what's with the super-tight uniform?
They've won 4 in a row and finish off the month: @ Charlotte @ Chicago vs. Clippers vs. Charlotte vs. Chicago vs. Heat vs. Spurs @ Pistons @ Nets Here's to the Knicks continuing to win.
If yall are trying to avoid work today, you can watch UK play an afternoon game... <object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" height="300" width="400" id="live_embed_player_flash" data="http://www.justin.tv/widgets/live_embed_player.swf?channel=mfletcher80" bgcolor="#000000"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always" /><param name="allowNetworking" value="all" /><param name="movie" value="http://www.justin.tv/widgets/live_embed_player.swf" /><param name="flashvars" value="channel=mfletcher80&auto_play=false&start_volume=25" /></object><a href="http://www.justin.tv/s/em/-rid-/mfletcher80" class="trk" style="padding:2px 0px 4px; display:block; width:345px; font-weight:normal; font-size:10px; text-decoration:underline; text-align:center;">Watch live video from mfletcher80 on Justin.tv</a>
they have the Knicks first round pick this year. And UK will be on national tv tomorrow afternoon vs the UL Cardinals... it's the CBS game I think if yall want to watch John John's ESPN highlight live. He always has at least one.
Looking forward to this game. But I really want SEC conference play to start to really gauge him further.
