UK Players for an NBA Title

[LexCatnOhio]

So this year a UK player is guaranteed to win an NBA national championship in the conference finals this season. When has there been (if ever) another said opportunity?

I guess I would like to see Randle get him one since he repped UK gear during the playoffs. Plus dilly

I would love to see that Randle/KAT matchup in the NBA Finals in the first year after that trade. A deal that benefited both teams.

I don't think there's a UK player on the Pacers.

Isaiah Jackson is on the Pacers, though he has not played since November because of a torn Achilles.

Isaiah Jackson is on the Pacers …although he’s out injured now.

He still gets a ring if they win at all, though. That counts.

I'm hoping SGA wins tonight and that OKC makes the NBA finals. I think the Thunder could win it all now that Boston is out.

Definitely feels like whoever wins tonight is the favorite to win it all.

It is really cool that not only are UK players on all 5 remaining teams, but they're major players on 4/5.

Towns is an All-Star for the Knicks.
Randle is a multi-time All-Star
Jamal Murray averages 20 a game.
SGA is probably winning MVP.

Gotta admit that SGA is a pretty annoying player nowadays. Foul baits and flops around constantly. Hoping Denver can pull it out tomorrow. A Denver v. New York Finals is what I want.

Really want OKC or Knicks to win it all. I absolutely love Randle as a player but can't stand Anthony Edward's so I can't root for Minnesota.

I can't root for a new york team to win n any sport for the most part. Probably Yankee overkill spilling into other sports but it's how i feel.

 

[Wildcats1st]

Surprising it's taken this long. We have a player on just about every team.

Murray and AD have titles.

Tonight or tomorrow nugs and okc game 7?

 

[kyboy1998_rivals34276]

Murray and AD have titles.

So does Prince and Rondo. Seems irrelevant to the thread though.

 

[St.PatterSoN-54-]

Did oscar also play for the pacers this year?

I’m kinda there too. I want Randle to win and Edwards to lose.

 

[Wildcats1st]

Okay... and what does that have to do with the thread?

I evidently misunderstood your point. Some touchy new posters. Tranquilo

Jackson right?

 

[StubbornPenny]

I really want KAT to win because of all he’s been through, and is now with his hometown team. Also I like that Brunson took an under market deal to help bring in more guys.

 

[AFKY_Blue_RedsBengals]

Wasn't it Cow Turd a few years ago that cocked off saying Kentucky players can't win NBA Championships? There are so many Wildcats in the pros now, it would be surprising when one doesn't win a title.

 

[preston-lemasterpiece]

Pulling big time for Randle and the Wolves.
SGA is...pretty hard to watch, ngl. Just don't enjoy his game.
