Top video was a travel. 4 steps…

but Uk would have looked much different if OK wasn’t OK with paying him.

Playoffs is the only time I tune in and it’s been highly entertaining so far.

Same here. Same with baseball. The seasons are just too long to hold my interest otherwise.

Looking like nba and TV gonna get all sexy matchups in 2nd round. Denver vs Phoenix and most likely lakers vs warriors (with fox hurt think kings are toast). Then Philly vs Boston and most likely new York vs either old time rival Miami or the 1 seed n east? Ratings bonanza potentially.

I haven't been impressed with the suns so far. They struggled at times with a kawhi and George less clippers squad. Like Booker so wouldn't mind them winning it all.

I can speak on incredibly good authority that Oklahoma did not pay him a penny.

If anyone knows Lon Kruger, they know he would never come within 10 square miles of cheating- that guy is as clean as clean gets.

Don't just throw random **** out there because we didn't sign this guy.

Oops. Got him and Cunningham confused.

But I will say him going to Oklahoma and not UK was startling. Hurt our program, didn’t really help OU at all…

Trae at Kentucky would have been incredible- must see TV!

Disappointing he didn't end up coming here.

He and SGA would have been the deadliest backcourt.

Cal looks stupid now for suggesting he leave Norman and attend a prep school for his senior yr.
I don't think Cal was sold on Trae being elite at that time.
I think it rubbed the family the wrong way but he was always OU"s to lose.

Trae would have come to Kentucky if Calipari wanted him. Cal had no idea how to coach somebody that plays like him and went with Quade Green.

It's funny how similar sometimes Dillingham plays like Trae.

Maybe Dillingham will be a Trae Young type scorer and playmaker at this level next year.

Tantalizing matchups!

He reminds me of a poor mans Curry.

And no mention of the bricks he threw up just before on the other possessions..

Young had 7-8 shots blocked and still scored 40! Lol!! Marcus Smart sure didn’t help Boston the last 5-6 minutes, dumb turnovers, bad shots, setting a terrible screen. Pretty much gave the game away!

I was reminded again of why I don't watch the NBA. Watching the same people jack up very long shots time and time again. It hilarious when a time out happens and the coach grabs a clipboard. Like what play is he calling.. OK, you dribble into half court, find an opening, and shoot a 30fter.

But they make them.
NBA is far superior product to what NCAA basketball has become.
The only thing the college game has is traditional fan support.
It's hard to get behind the NBA when you could care less which team wins.
Entertainment value is at an all time low in the college game but UK fans are passionate about any wins for the program.
UK fansl loved the win in Knoxville last season because it was big at the time for the team but to a person who could care less about either school it was straight garbage from a basketball and entertainment perspective.
