Bad news on for Bryce Hopkins and Providence

That sucks. Hate it when athletes get injured.

It’s tough to see that happen. It’s also kind of a direct hit to English’s resume’ in some ways. He will get the blame when Providence starts losing more games, even though there’s not a darn thing you can do as a coach.

Lol Thank goodness it will change drastically. Hope we can get a 1 seed.
Depends on Ala and Ky.

Burns is Barkley 2.0

Barkley had amazing athleticism even as the heavy “round mound of rebound” at Auburn. He could really run and jump even with the extra bad weight and had a 39” vertical jump. Burns appears to be vertically challenged but he’s got some sweet post moves and a very soft touch around the basket. Very different athletes IMO.

Yeah, he reminds me more of Glen "Big Baby" Davis.

Kentucky plays so fast on offense. Feels like they rarely get the shot clock under 10 before they take a shot. And they are really quick in transition. They’ve cooked Florida several times on the fast break.

 

[TheMookieMonster]

Kentucky doesn’t play any defense though.

 

[cncchris33]

It helps that Florida has 7 3-pointers while UK has 7 TOs.

 

[SGMVols]

As I often like to remind people, all college basketball teams have scoring droughts. That’s why defense matters. When we have a scoring drought, our defense keeps us in it. Kentucky has a scoring drought and they fall behind double digits almost instantly.

 

[SGMVols]

This is basketball malpractice by Kentucky in not trying to draw the 4th foul on Kugel. Florida’s been playing him with 3 fouls since the 6 minute mark.

 

[chuckiepoo]

Florida be jamming! Giving the Kitties the what for!
