Michael Kidd-Gilchrist is the best player I’ve seen in person this year. The UK Basketball freshman could leave for and play in the NBA tonight.
Anthony Davis isn’t far behind Kidd-Gilchrist. The UK Basketball freshman combines with him to make them a dynamic duo that will likely take them to The Final 4 in New Orleans March 31.
Cards fans don’t worry so much. I’ve rarely seen a team with such a refuse to lose attitude. To be down by 15 at your arch rival in the first half, then go on a 13 point run and eventually tie it at 40, bodes well for The Cards over the next 2 months. They get star freshman Wayne Blackshear back from injury and continue to blend and become more cohesive after a laundry list of injuries. I never thought they were a top team now. But I have always believed they might be a top 4 team at the end.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year Hoosiers fans. Beating then #1 UK and then #2 Ohio State certifies IU Basketball is back. Now with more wins this season than the previous 3 under Head Coach Tom Crean.
Hey, how about a Final Four that includes U of L, UK and IU? Wow that WOULD be a huge 2012.
Here’s wishing you the happiest of New Years, and may your best days be ahead in 2012.
