I like this from the winners:
Tyler Ulis
Kentucky looks soft in the middle and Jamal Murray's fluctuation from chaotic to brilliant makes the Wildcats a beautiful, talented mess of a national title contender. But Ulis is a 5-foot-9 point guard with the heart of a linebacker -- his standoff with Demarcus Cousins proves as much -- and he's arguably the best pure point guard in college basketball right now. Michelle and Kelly couldn't do much alone. Add Beyonce (Ulis) and you have Destiny's Child. Kentucky is Destiny's Child. This makes sense to us.
Then this from the losers:
The Pitinos
Long before Kentucky fans captured video of Rick Pitino's apparent gestureafter he suffered his eighth loss to the Wildcats in his past nine tries, he was battling a sex scandal that could rock the program once the NCAA, local law enforcement and school officials all unveil the results of their simultaneous investigations. He lost both games -- at Michigan State and at Kentucky -- that would have convinced skeptics the Cardinals were more than a team that could crush low-level opponents. Now, road losses to the Spartans and Wildcats aren't justification to dismiss the Cardinals as contenders in the ACC, but they don't have a signature win yet. Meanwhile, Pitino's son, Minnesota coach Richard Pitino, recently suffered losses to both South Dakota and South Dakota State. He needs top-50 recruit Amir Coffey -- now.
Then this gem:
That's somebody's child, Alex Poythress!
Not again, Alex. Why are you doing this? You didn't see Anas Mahmoud andDeng Adel standing there when you rumbled through the lane and dunked on the world in Kentucky's 75-73 win over rival Louisville? (Missed it? See it again here.)You saw them, Alex. We know you did. You just didn't care. My goodness. Send them a few gift cards or something, man.
