Here's a game. Pick 1 non-NBA draft pick from Rick/Tubby/Clyde/Cal era to put on this squad who would really help.

UK guy, obviously. Idiot.

Still thinking...

Chuck Hayes [sick] Sorry, I know that's unpopular. Guy is incredible what he did and has done in the NBA, but no thank you. While a monster, He's just another "ugly" player, which this team has plenty of.

1. Sheppard- adds outside shooting, elite athlete, good defender, experience

2. Chuck Hayes- this is cheating, but he was NOT drafted, great rebounder and defender inside, smart, makes everyone around him better on both ends

3. Gerald Fitch- adds much of the same that Shep does, mostly a terrific outside shooter and defender

4. Estill- terrific interior scorer and good shotblocker

5. Pelphrey- outside shooter, smart, can play the 3

I think you could do a lot worse than Randy or Estill. A back to the basket post scorer is probably what we need the most, because I think our shooting will eventually come around, but Jamal Murray isn't going to grow to be 6'10" 250 lbs anytime soon.

Gimme a Sr. John Pelphrey, although I reserve to change my pick to a few players I'm surely forgetting. But this team could use a 6-7 sharpshooter, veteran, and tough-as-nails competitor.



After The Water Fountain, of course.

Estill was so underrated, but his complete no show and being punked out by Jackson vs Marquette forever taints him to me.

Jason Parker was a boss. What a waste.

Shep wasn't drafted either, but I was never a huge fan until that tourney run...plus he shanked both of our shots at Mike Brent scramble.

It's been more than 20 years since Pelphrey played here. He doesn't fit your criteria.

Eric Daniels wasn't drafted was he?

I'd go:

Estil
Fitch
Shep(should be lower b/c he wouldn't club down)
Daniels
Hayes


Pel was longer than 20 years ago. Easy set of criteria. Geez guys.

I also understand that Morris's stats weren't necessarily in line with the eyeball test, but 16/8/2 would be the best, on paper, low post presence we could have given the criteria.

Again, I get that in the real world he probably would bring a lot of negatives to the table, but that stat line is underrated because of those teams performance and the fax finding mission (lol)

I get the big man takes, but I think we'll come around. I'm more concerned about shooting at this point. With the way we can penetrate, we could use another shooter to spread the floor.

I also look at the other contenders- teams like Kansas, Duke and UNC- and the ability to contain the bounce and to get into the paint is going to be HUGE this March.

Sparks was considered, actually.

Who you got, Chad? Derrick Miller?

BRASSOWWWWWWWWW? [eyeroll]



*I edited b/c 20 years cuts into Pitino era, marcus welby include his whole tenure.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) – I did not plan to lead the Monday Muse with another riff on the Louisville-Kentucky basketball game. (But I’m never going to run from that topic.)

The game is a dozen days away. (You think I’m going to write about U of L vs. Kennesaw State?)

But in addition to my daily checks of the computer rankings posted by Ken Pomeroy, Jeff Sagarin and the Ratings Percentage Index, I found a site that collected nearly two dozen other rankings. (Great, I’ll never get any work done.)

Here I am with more U of L-UK chatter to headline the Monday Muse.

1. Computer Rankings Trending Toward Cards

Last week, Pomeroy’s numbers had UK winning by five in Rupp Arena Dec. 26. Now the numbers say four.

Last week, Sagarin’s number had Louisville winning by 3.28 in Rupp. Now the numbers say Cards by 5.88. Sagarin ranks Louisville first in his predictor formula. Kentucky is merely No. 24.

The RPI also favors Rick Pitino’s team. The Cards are ranked 12th, the Wildcats 16th.

Then they lose and talk about how their conference games are more important anyways. Happens every damn year.
