When politics is inserted into a thread not about politics an angel loses it's wings.
USA v Iran game thread. Maybe official, maybe not
- Thread starter UKvisitor
- Start date
I agree politics F's up a thread. Sometimes, current politics just bleeds into a thread. It is now talking stuff.
Just a rebuttal. Never would have happened if the first dude didn't say something stupid.
Ok my impressions:
Reddish was best player on the court today, I hope we have a shot at him. Although he may be a lil Andrew Wiggins, i.e. Soft.
Teams in the NBA missed on Hammi! He is gonna be a special player and we are gonna love his game.
PJ was the best big out there! He looked more mobile and great going to the basket, his 3rd quarter dunk had NBA written all over it. Cal will do with him what he Did with AD and KAT, or maybe I should sy Kenny, build his on the block game. He may be as good as they were in the post while at UK.
Give me Quickly at the point next year and I'll be happy. I hope he really is ours!
Langford showed he is in the conversation for next years best player. I glad Lou is still in on him giving them reason to watch. It will make it sweeter when he joins the BBN.

Thank you for you for your input and comments on today's game. I enjoyed watching the game today. No announcers with players names was hard for me to follow who was doing what. How many of those playing for the USA are uncommitted for the coming season? Looking forward to the new season of Wildcat basketball.
Saw nothing from Wiley that would indicate that 7ft 250 lb Richards would have to have help with Wiley based on playing against a horrible Iran team Of course Diallo Washington didn't get benched for terrible play like you said either. Cal subbed like that to keep his players fresh bit don't go on to correct yourself. Washington got into Foul trouble based on some terrible officiating. Both UK players played well and Washington played better than Wiley so if Duke has the unfortunate task of meeting Uk in the tourney they will need to double team Washington.
PJW will be ahead of Wenyen by the end of the first practice. As a coaches kid his understanding of the game is the exact opposite of WG.
He isn't a center. He can play center tho just cause he can play face up doesn't mean he can't post up he actually does both. He was just doing what coach asked him to do
He didn't bench them he subbed like that the whole game he knows he needs to keep players fresh hell Washington was playing well he got in foul trouble he did the exact same thing in the second half u just made a fool of yourself acting like they weren't playing good then went out and stuffed the stat sheet in limited time.
So you have seen how much Gabriel has improved? Cause unless his confidence is way better no way is he beating out Washington based on anything we have seen so far Washington is a leader. Did u even watch? Funny did the guys get benched the last 6 min too? Lol second half had the exact same substitution pattern
It has to do with internet speed. I have a smart tv as well and it looks terrible when my internet is running to slow.
I've got the highest speed package offered here.. Def helps..
Block the dems. Lol. Just kidding. And I apologize. Bad form on my part.
Still say the upcoming season will be the most exciting and the talent is being under estimated.
There was no commentary obviously,, and the only problem I had was the sound was off from the picture.. As said before,, was crystal clear like HD,, but I could hear the ball either bricking or swishing 3 secs before I actually saw it..
UK players Hamidou Diallo #8 and PJ Washington #14
Non UK college players: Payton Pritchard of Oregon #4, Carsen Edwards of Purdue #6 (was AAU teammate of DeAaron Fox and Jarred Vanderbilt), #10 Kevin Huerter of Maryland (very good shooter who struggled a bit today), #9 Josh Okogie of Georgia Tech, Austin Wiley of Auburn #12, and Brandon McCoy of UNLV #15.
SLB, these are the HS players on the team: Immanuel Quickley #5, Cameron Reddish #7, Louis King #11, and Romeo Langford #13. All are undecided. Quickley is a heavy lean to UK (likely their first commitment of '18 class). King wants to go to UK and plays with Reddish on Team Final on the Nike EYBL Circuit/AAU. Reddish is a UK/Duke battle. He's from same HS as Mohamed Bamba (Westtown Prep). Langford is more open--but has Duke, Louisville, IU, in addition to UK.
Another young man to watch in this tournament is Canada's RJ Barrett (he's going to re-classify to '18 in August). He wears #6 for Canada (I believe) and had 20 pts and 11 rebs today in their blowout win over Mali. Barrett is very close with Jamal Murray and his father was a player at St. John's (Rowan Barrett).
It's weird without the announcers, but for a Summer game, I enjoy the lack of TV timeouts as the trade off. Also laugh at how there is a "Swish" sound effect when 3pt shots go in and FT are attempted. It's really weird. lol
