Re: 2012/13 Observation Deck
No Reggie Bullock (who's been our best or at least most consistent player this year) and UNC beats a top 20 team. Granted, talent wise we have as much or more than they do and it was at home, but still. UNC has been terrible against the other three quality teams they've played this year, so I didn't have high hopes for this game today after I heard Bullock wasn't going to play.
Defense has been terrible the last two games, too, and we defended much better. Probably had our best defensive half of the season in the first half.
Re: 2012/13 Observation Deck
Second half defense wasn't very good. We got lucky that UNLV couldn't make free throws (like us!).
PJ Hairston is a ****ing boss. I love that kid.
Re: 2012/13 Observation Deck
Second half defense wan't good for a stretch in the first 10 minutes...it was awful if I'm being honest. But the final 8-10 minutes of the game it was pretty damn good.
Oh, and f*** you Karl Hess.

Kentucky Wildcats look like a bubble team this year, if not NIT-bound.

Russ Smith is one of the most exciting players I've ever seen
Boy is he fun to watch.

Cauley-Stein is might be the best NBA player on UK. He has some freakish tools.

I agree. if he enters the draft this year I think he'll be a lottery pick but if he stays in school one more year he could be a top 5 pick.
Damn Kentucky is showing serious heart in this game
Re: 2012/13 Observation Deck
WOW Kentucky really fvcked that up
Re: 2012/13 Observation Deck
russ smith is legit. lightning quick and fearless.
i think he can play his way into the first round and be a nice sparkplug off the bench a lot of teams would like to have.

Yeap I hope he stays more than one year tho imo if he comes to the NBA he will be stuck on the bench for a couple years while they work on his overall game. Better for him to actually play but yeah I liked him the first time I saw him play this year.
Also what do people think of CJ Leslie being a SF in the NBA?(I think hes to skinny to be a PF) His mid range jumper is nice and hes a pretty sick athlete moving up/down and side to side. He can post up but does not really have the best handle but imo I could see him being a bigger Ronnie Brewer and make finishes of cuts, offensive boards and moving without the ball as a back up in the NBA.
