So how long do we have to wait...LOL!

mhall, How do you figure Deng has a high basketball IQ when he didn't even know offensive fouls counted against his 5 allowed. Also why would Pitino sand bag with a guy who is 7or 8 in rotation?

Dude, he's learning the game, give it time. Pitino said he is learning and picking up on things as quick or quicker than any player he has ever coached. He also said he has the potential to be the best big man he's ever coached. Pitino doesn't throw that stuff around lightly. Also watch him keep that ball high on rebounds, then look for an open man without panicking and make a pass to the open guy. That's something Sissy Samuels never learned.

Also Justice was the 6th man in guard rotation and also started a few games. He was getting 26 minutes on average per game before his injury, that's significant if you ask me. Maybe you should watch more Louisville basketball before you comment....

Learning rules of the game as you go because you are from a foreign country and haven't played much doesn't make you basketball stupid, give it time and I bet ya he's gonna be a great one.

If you lost say Liggins, Miller, or maybe Lamb right now off your team do you think that would hurt any??????? Same minutes as the guy I mentioned....

Well both times have had a noce warmup game span. I hope they are BOTH ready for the other.
UK had a balanced scoring effort and no one got into foul troublr. Not that I want foul trouble, but that's one thing you CAN'T practice in practice. How to keep your head on and play if you get yourself into it and how to come into the game and help out when someone else gets into and not do exactly the same thing(send that one to the English Lit Depart.)

Brandon Knight gets his confidence early...things should fall into place.

Pitino gets U of L pressing with success early...the ref's will wear out the whistle and we will be in foul trouble.

Billy it is gonna be interesting to see how they blow the whistle. I know last year on Calapari's call in show prior to the game he mentioned getting in the refs ears about Louisville body bumping on the press. Although I don't remember alot of fouls called last year on either team, but my memory is not great sometimes. I hope they let them play and they go at. Heck maybe Buckles can take down Darius Miller with a blind naked choke hold like Thugousins did to poor little ole Swopshire last year, lol.

Win, lose, or draw...I'm ready for this game RIGHT NOW!

Alright, what's the bet MHall?

I'll start by saying that if Louisville wins, I will purchase a Louisville Cardinals hat, have my wife take a picture of me wearing it...in a public place...and it will be my Facebook and Fishin.com profile picture for the period of (2) weeks.

What's your counter big boy?

[Fishin is life]

I would think Lville fans would want the game called very closely....you put Lvilles second five againts UK's second five and its a blowout....Terrance Jones is the key to this game....he doesn't play well, UK loses, he plays good, UK wins....It'll be a tight one right up till the end, but I think UK has too much talent.....UK by 4 and i don't look for it to be a high scoring game....maybe 68-64

Why the heck is the game at noon on a Friday when most people will be at work?

I gotta be honest though, I was looking forward to seeing that MHall mugshot in a UK hat....or one of those "Cal is my Homeboy" tee-shirts...

LOL, Did I hit a nerve, lmao............. I still say that knee was just rolling over and quite incidental. The poor boy was trying to protect himself from that raged convict, lol. Brian I can't stomach your bet, I'm sorry I would melt down like the Wicked witch of the West if you put that blue thing on my head. We are just gonna have to settle for riding each other I suppose, I think Ky is favored now by 2.

Boys I hope they let them play, a tightly called game means the Louisville press will be hamstrung. Let'em go at it like rabid dogs, a real slobber knocker. I'd like to see ole Preston go Gary Bussey on Brandon Knight...
