Duke vs UK
Heard good things about Goodwin, and Cauley-Stein. Interested to see them play tonight.
I want to see the Willie Cauley/ mason Plumlee matchup as both are crazy athletes. I hope Archie can how us his playmaking ability as Ryan Harrow is out; I want to see how good this guys handles really are
Pretty classless from Cal imo.
I would root for UK because they're a fun team and I love watching young teams develop into something special by the end of the year but not with that slimeball of a coach.
The guy just comes off as so unauthentic and fake.
Notes on UK so far:
Noel has such an ugly post game and has no awareness when he has the ball, but he's such a good athlete and he has that presence defensively.
Wiltjer is good, extremely smart, and is going to have a great year.
When Poythress attacks, no one can stop him. He's an absolute monster when he's being aggressive.
I like Goodwin a lot, he's a lottery talent, but he's got a long way to go in terms of refining his game. And despite they pleas of some guys on here, he should not be the starting PG, he's not good at it.
Cauley-Stein has so a much more refined post game then Noel, he actually looks like he has decent moves.
nerlens defense would've been 10 times more efficient in Syracuse zone...
Willies post game is better but it is still bad, when he dribbles while backing down he stares at the ball instead of trying to feel his man and find out which way to turn, he doesn't have a go too move but with his length and athleticism, he should be able to have no problems getting his shot off
sulaimon is beasty... he has deadly range
Yeah, I agree he needs to get a lot stronger. I believe once he gets stronger he is going to be a beast. He is going up against someone 2 or 3 years older than him, that has filled out.
KVH could put the ball on the deck some. Wiltjer looks like he's got cinder blocks for feet. Reminds me of Nick Fazekas.
Van Horn had a much better all around game..Wiltjer seems 1 dimensional....Van Horn could rebound,post up,shoot and pass...Considering the tools he had,I think Van Horn & Eddy Curry were 2 of the Biggest Underacheivers of the past 15 years.....
I think Poythress is going to be a far superior player.
Neither is going to lead a franchise, but Poythress brings more to the table and does play so out of control. I like Goodwin, but he's a lot less refined then I'd like for a lottery SG.
I think the only problem with Goodwin is that he plays out of control. If he can get that together, kid is going to be special.
Both players are going to be nice pieces to whoever drafts them though.
Damn you goodwin, how didn't you dunk that!
i was about to say goodwin is gonna go off when he made that jumper off the dribble from the elbow.
How many times has Noel been faked out of his shoes?
at one point he's like, 'damn, its so easy faking people out... let me pump fake Mason'
***gets swatted***
Wtf did Alex Murphy do to get into Coach K's doghouse? A 6'8 SF PERFECT for guarding Poythress yet he hasn't played the last two games when he started in the preseason.
Must've failed a drug test lol.
He must've done something in the last week because he started all throughout the preseason and also there were murmurs that he was going to start last year if they didn't redshirt him.
K is always sung his praises about how versatile he is. Quote from Rodney Hood "I've never had to guard a white dude as athletic as Alex".
Sure could've used that athleticism to guard Poythress instead of mother *cking Tyler Thornton...










Gonna be fun. Any UK bandwagon fans from last season still around? Or does UK fans get replaced by a new set every year like their players?
