    BB: UK IN PURSUIT OF QUINN ELLIS, BRITISH GUARD OF ITALY OLIMPIA MILANO

    That pasta offense is SO MUCH FASTER than the normal fast "paste" offense we're used to seeing, at times.

    BB: UK IN PURSUIT OF QUINN ELLIS, BRITISH GUARD OF ITALY OLIMPIA MILANO

    And the site i linked earlier had the Euroleague right behind the NBA. To me, one of the biggest concerns is health for our main pieces, especially the starter and backup pg roles. Wouldn't take much to be better than Lowe this season, but I wouldn't pay Lowe much even if he wants to be...

    If, God forbid, we win 4 in a row, would that bring on the longest , greatest off season in UK basketball history ?

    I think what they mean and reference, and someone correct me if i'm wrong here, is the dichotomy between current expectations and reality. We didn't have a great year, and nobody expects us to make a F4, but if we somehow did after this lackluster season, that would be a major accomplishment...

    BB: UK IN PURSUIT OF QUINN ELLIS, BRITISH GUARD OF ITALY OLIMPIA MILANO

    I get what you mean but given he's so young and doing well in the second best basketball league in the world, I just respectfully disagree. I'm not even convinced but with all the figures I see thrown out for recruits nowadays the ask seems reasonable. He will only get better, and hes already...

    BB: UK IN PURSUIT OF QUINN ELLIS, BRITISH GUARD OF ITALY OLIMPIA MILANO

    Considering the EuroLeague is the top brand of bball in Europe, I don't find a $3mil asking price to be too far out of the realm of possibility for a young dude of his potential and current skill. Most players use that league as a stepping stone to the NBA, not college ball, so he is more than...

    Anyone with me - SGA is the best player in the world RIGHT NOW

    That's a fair take. I can't really argue with anyone who'd prefer Jokic, the guy is simply unbelievable. And I appreciate you understanding what I meant with my post. I wasnt talking GOAT or anything, merely who is the best in the world AT THE GIVEN MOMENT. Thanks for entertaining my...

    Anyone with me - SGA is the best player in the world RIGHT NOW

    That was ridiculous to me at the time. In preseason I remember thinking " this kid has LEGIT ball skills". I've been a fan since day one, and can't help but root for a guy like him compared to his peers stars.

    Anyone with me - SGA is the best player in the world RIGHT NOW

    I like this breakdown. Yeah SGA needs more sustained success, even if his last 3 seasons were insane,

    Anyone with me - SGA is the best player in the world RIGHT NOW

    I get your point, and agree. I get excited about our guys, and I've been a fan of SGA a long time, and I'm certainly biased. His last season was just great, by any measure, and he's 26. If he keeps it up, he will go down as one of best ever. We shall see.

    Anyone with me - SGA is the best player in the world RIGHT NOW

    They are all in the discussion. I'm just saying that SGA is quietly becoming one of the best to ever play the game. Other guys are too. But right this second, SGA might be the best there is.

    Anyone with me - SGA is the best player in the world RIGHT NOW

    ESPN article He's doing Jordan type stuff. Things only Kareem, Shaq and Jordan have accomplished - ever. He's not better than these guys legacy-wise atm, but if he keeps it up, he could go down as one of the best ever. Right now, he's the best player in the world. Anyone agree?

    Reece Potter commits to UK

    Love the pickup. The kid has no pressure to develop here, will compete against top-tier talent over multiple seasons, and he already calls Kentucky home. It's hard to see this addition as anything other than a no-lose situation. At worst, he is a solid practice piece & frontcourt depth when...

    Travis Perry to the portal

    I predict he will go play a few years elsewhere and return for his senior tour as a Wildcat. With how easy it is to transfer nowadays, he will be back IMO. I'm totally fine with that. I wish he'd stay, but if he wants more playing time elsewhere, I get it. I'd welcome home back with open...

    If Goodman is correct on basketball teams revenue sharing budget to have a competitive team.

    Without adding much in the form of facts or great insight into the matter, all I can say is the current NIL landscape is utterly ridiculous. Goodman has been known to spout some bull so who knows if what he says is true, but regardless, the college game I grew up cheering for - and admiring -...
