I hate Jay Bilas

What an ass.

 

[*CatinIL*]

I hate Jay Bilas

Jay looks like he just rolled out of bed...

 

[Kentucky fan 1989]

I hate Jay Bilas

What did he say?

 

[KyCatFan]

Of course no mention of how Fox dominated Ball when they played.

 

[JumperJack]

Maybe all our fans who think Bilas is so great will realize what a fu**stick he really is after that.

 

[KingOfBBN]

Fox seems positive about the Kings. A PG can make a difference.

The Kings had the best center in the game and did nothing with him.

 

[dlh331]

Bilas is now Bile-ASS

 

[FiveStarCat]

Maybe all our fans who think Bilas is so great will realize what a fu**stick he really is after that.

What did he say?

 

[nssdigitalchumps]

The Kings had the best center in the game and did nothing with him.

Yeah, but a team doesn't succeed without a good point guard.

 

[Ineverplayedthegame]

Bilas

 

[JFCats22]

Monk sliding a bit. Maybe goes 10 now?

 

[ukfan693]

What did he say?

Rece Davis said that this was the 10th straight year that Cal has produced a top 10 pick. Bilas said, "he doesn't produce them, he just recruits them."

 

[Catzman]

I love how everyone talked crap abouy height and length being an issue as a big man for Bam yet Issac is "ridiculously long." 6'10 with a 7'2 wingspan is ridiculously long? Hell, Bam is 6'10 and has a 7'3 wingspan, does that make him double ridiculous? Plus hes 260 pounds with a 40 inch vertical. Team Bam.

 

[Ugoff]

Bilas basically going out of his way to deny Cal credit. Such and ass. He stepped right into the ESPN #1 spot. Tows the line to a T.

 

[FiveStarCat]

Please tell me Bilas was being sarcastic?

 

[SilentsAreGolden]

I'm so sick of all of our guys going to crap teams.

 

[78Gooses]

Magic got an elite passer to make his team better. Magic understands passing the ball. Magic should have passed on the Balls. One of them will be in his face. Coulda had Fox. Then he wouldn't have Balls.

Well.....Height and length are much less an issue for a 6'10" wing than they are for a 6'10" post player.

 

[Ugoff]

Please tell me Bilas was being sarcastic?

He was dead serious. Rece was irritated to the point where he called him "mr. Semantics"

 

[Orville Boggs]

Let's hold off with the death threats to Jay after the draft folks!

Saying that, Jay really is an A$$hole!

 

[FiveStarCat]

Looking forward to Cal's response. You know it's going to be good.

 

[Cawood86]

Rece Davis said that this was the 10th straight year that Cal has produced a top 10 pick. Bilas said, "he doesn't produce them, he just recruits them."

There's you go Bilas dangers. He just proved what a tool he is. Can't stand the fact that Cal is out doing the phony in Durham

 

[aj&uscgrad]

NBA Network also has draft coverage but it is only commentary, no footage of the commissioner or interviews and of course, no Jay Bilas. You will have Kenny Smith however schilling for UNC

 

[loublue22]

yeah Im sure that guy is better than Monk

 

[jrpross]

No freakin way Bilass makes that comment if someone was mentioning first round picks coach K produced.

 

[UKWildcats#8]

Never heard of this frenchie.

 

[permdaddy]

Dennis Smith going to Dallas at 9

 

[Robcatt24]

No mention of Wilbon saying this could be the last draft with freshmen?

Wilbon sounded pretty sure that the OAD is done. Like Wilbon or not, he is pretty plugged into the NBA.

Thought that was significant.

 

[JFCats22]

Does SAC end up with Fox and Monk?

 

[bigblue7609]

Ok we are all thinking it. Sacramento picks next......

 

[why_not_kentucky]

Rece Davis said that this was the 10th straight year that Cal has produced a top 10 pick. Bilas said, "he doesn't produce them, he just recruits them."

I see nothing wrong with what he said. That is what Cal does. Smh

 

[USSLair]

Bilas can kiss my ass. What a dumbass. Who made him basketball god?

 

[The_Answer1313]

I see nothing wrong with what he said. That is what Cal does. Smh

yeah I'm not sure I get the hate either

What he said was accurate lol

Fox was going top 5 whether he ended up at UK, Duke, or WKU lol

 

[USSLair]

I see nothing wrong with what he said. That is what Cal does. Smh

Oh really. Just rolls those balls out? Shut up

 

[UKWildcats#8]

I see nothing wrong with what he said. That is what Cal does. Smh

He even said that's what they all do with these top end picks. Not just calipari. Bilas is smug and it was a goofy thing to say at the time though.

 

[Catzman]

Well.....Height and length are much less an issue for a 6'10" wing than they are for a 6'10" post player.

Had no idea he was a small forward.

Also, any chance we see Monk go at 10 to the kings with fox? That would be sick

 

[JFCats22]

Monk really falling now. Damn

 

[Tannerdad]

Word is Monk falling to 13th pick. Crazy

 

[permdaddy]

No mention of Wilbon saying this could be the last draft with freshmen?

Wilbon sounded pretty sure that the OAD is done. Like Wilbon or not, he is pretty plugged into the NBA.

Thought that was significant.

Also said there will be more kids going to the G league due to rising money and 2 way contracts. That means High school kids will have a real decision to make between G league and NCAA. NBA type money to develop in the G league for a couple years or college.

 

[cgreen423]

I am liking the KU and UK connections more and more. Obviously KAT and Wiggins is sick but I was hoping Josh would go to Phoenix. I am thinking Frank mason could go somewhere like new Orleans. I think he would thrive in a twin tower environment. Good luck to your players in the rest of the draft!
