What the heck is Pearl so mad about? Lol. Hes about to win and has a fire team
It shouldn't surprise anybody that a blue blood won the Maui.
As much as I hate to say this, I don't think we have an answer for Broome. He's as dominating as any player I've seen in recent years and unlike Amari, can consistently hit free throws, at least of late. His technique is good and Amari's will never be. Also, Auburn has tremendous athleticism, by far the best I've ever seen since that Auburn team with Person, Barkely and others. We will have to play out of our asses to beat them. We could, but right now I don't like our odds. A lot can happen between now and March though. I think much depends on whether Garrison develops into a shot blocking, rebounding and scoring machine. That's a big ask to go from a decent big to a great one between now and the NCAAT. Carr is very good, but I don't think he's capable of going anything but right; he needs to be capable of using his left hand. Can he? Thus far, it doesn't appear that he can. Correct me if I'm wrong. He's a very smart and skilled player despite that, but to be an NBA player I think he'll have to be able to go to his left.
As dominating as any player you’ve seen in recent years? Oh come on now let’s calm down a little bit. He’s not Michael Jordan
I'm not comparing anyone to MJ, so get a life and quit being ridiculous. I'm talking about college players in RECENT years, as in the last ten or fifteen as opposed to NBA HOF players.
Zion Williamson was more dominating. That’s just off the top of my head. I’m sure there’s more
Or how about a guy named Zach edey? Some might argue he was rather dominating
At this point, that's debatable. It's Thanksgiving where I am right now, so enjoy the holiday.
Some on here are more keen on arguing than reading carefully. I believe my comment was that Broome is as dominant right now as anyone I've seen in RECENT years. I never said he was MJ, Bryant, Barkely, Malone, Durant, AD, Robertson, West, Chamberlain, Russel or anything like that. Right now though, he's killing it and it's no fluke. To all, have a great Thanksgiving.
Had a chance to be Penny again. Comes up short. Stuck at Ol Peso.
Auburn looks damn good.
Auburn beat Memphis today 90 to 76. pretty good beatdown on a decent Memphis team.
Auburn is definitely better than us but the fact we’re even talking about UK with the best teams in the country 6 games into Pope’s first year says everything you need to know
Definitely better than us? It cracks me up when people are so willing to bow down. People also thought Duke was a sure loss because of Flag, if you don’t know is only 17. People also didn’t think Dayton would be putting in work this year either. Not directed at you but I’m not saying anyone is better till after we play them.
I'm not bowing down. It's more of a complement to Auburn than a shot at us. They look like the best team in the country and are playing better than anyone
That probably wasn’t fair to reply to you. I wasn’t necessarily directing that at you, just in general seeing people write off a loss before it’s ever played.
I'm never accepting a loss before any game with our current team because they are talented and who knows how the team and all of its players will develop by March or even game to game. So don't infer that I'm conceding anything to Auburn. Hell, about 5 years ago we beat them by 30 points just a few weeks before they beat us in the Elite 8. Injuries happen and teams regress and progress. That's what makes cbb great.
