On Gameday just now. When taking about if UK could make the Final Four without PJ. He in his emphatic arrogant way said “the answer is no”. Well, guess no need to lace them up if PJ can’t get back.
Why doesn't that surprise me?

To be honest, he wasn’t the only one that made a similar comment on that show.

And that loss will count and won’t be due to our stater being out. Duke loses and it’s “Oh well Zion....”

If we lose without our starter, it’s becuase we were never that good anyway or our opponent is the greatest team since sliced bread.

THAT’S where Bilas gets on my nerves. He’ll make every excuse in the world for Duke. But anyone else losses and it’s becusee they suck.

This time Jay is probably true. I mean anything can happen but that would be too tough an accomplishment.

We’ve basically played the majority of our games since we played Auburn back in February without either Travis or Washington. Obviously we had both for the SEC tourney, but Travis was limited and Washington sat in Foul trouble a fair amount of time.

It also depends on who we play.
If we have to beat Houston and UNCheats, then odds against us making final four.
If either team is upset then we have a much better chance.

What’s wrong with what he said?!?! I agree!! Gotta have PJ for a F4 run.

I think it’s just HOW he says things. Like I mentioned earlier, he’ll make every excuse and dance around the issue for Duke but then just comes out and takes a bludgeon to UK. Just never seems to give us solid credit sometimes unless we are just heads and shoulders legendary above everyone else (i.e. 2012).

It will be extremely difficult to win two more without him. He is easily the best player on the team and the guy you go to when you need a basket.

I agree with him on this one point but he’s still an arrogant jerk. It’s also not really much of a prediction when your dominant player is out.

See? Jay does not agree with my “anything can happen” belief. He has no idea what player might catch fire and carry a team to a championship. Doesn’t have to be a Cinderella team, it’s usually a player. We need our to be Keldon, EJ, Nick...and let the others play as well as they can play too VS freak show odd misses and phantom foul calls.

Sorry auburn and unc are no super teams. They are both winnable games without pj. We also have the best coach on the planet to pump the other guys up who take his mins. He’s also undermining Reid who can put up 20and 10 on anyone in the country. I got a salad bilas can toss. Loud mouth usually wrong sob. Since watching this on tru Tbs And cbs I don’t miss jay bilas and Seth at all. Especially when Barkley is on he kills it. Far better commentary from real players. Not the fake attorney babbling bald butthole bilas and his duke ********.
