KY Basketball
Actually, this team has grown leaps and bounds. Hey, how many opponent's shots have been taken since the third game when a UK player actually had their hand in the opponent's face? Harris and Miller are actually learning to handle the ball! Harris has yet to lose his mind and make one of his crazy "I can't take it anymore" drives and slam into the freaking post (he used to do that twice a game). It's the motion offense and quick pace we love. Oh and should I even mention passing? Outstanding. What do you want Piggie? Back to the four corners?
But, they need to keep games in perspective. And, the team is too deep to play so disjointedly when Wall is benched. They need to adjust and move on. We have shooters, defenders and big men. They freak when his energy leaves the court. That's not kewl. And did I mention that I have faith in Calipari to fix all of this?
But I too am psyched about basket ball. I didn't cover my eyes once last night with that icky feeling that we were going to suck...like I have been for the past four years.

most fun team to watch in over a decade. most talented team i've ever seen at kentucky (starting in the pitino era til now)
if they can get a bit more composure they'll be tough to beat; that said, they could also come out flat and get stomped by about anyone.
except arkansas. NOBODY can lose to arkansas.

I think both is the answer. Calipari doesn't throw his players under the bus. He deals with attitudes and team issues really privately. I like that about him. No reason to slag the kids in front of the media and the fans. Esp. in this day and age.
