Goodness! Today's huge physical basketball is supposed to be with college teams taking each other, but honestly, it remind fans of watching NBA!
Scary on this one, is the victory by Kentucky, 69-62, was poured over defense against visiting Louisville. Both coaches are great! John Calipari is the Kentucky coach, with familiar Rick Patino is the Louisville leader.
Wow. A big one. But Kentucky had some huge defense, and leader Michael Kidd-Gilchrist scored 19 pounds against a big Louisville defense as well.
Watching a game on college teams reminds me that the game has changed, remarkably to heavy, physical, fast game. That means tough defense, physically guiding the net, pushing offenders out of the way and forcing them to try threes on deep shots.
Remember Patino? The guy did use to coach on Kentucky years ago, and the guy later went to the Boston Celtics in the NBA, but did not do that well, and later has been to Louisville, another famous college team.
Patino seems to know what is happening, but his team was just outmanned by Kentucky. John Calipari is the exceptional coach for Kentucky. Looks the Wildcats will be difficult to beat at all in the SEC as the new starts tomorrow, Sunday.
Unexpected game was played with Kentucky fairly easily beating Louisville. Who knows? Long schedule ahead, and the March 2012 tournament for the NCAA will see both these teams right back!
For years I was a Kentucky fan on basketball. Unfortunately, the football team on Kentucky Wildcats are seldom good teams, but the basketball teams are day to win the SEC games, and do well, usually getting to top 16 teams of the NCAA tournament. Occasionally, Kentucky has won the NCAA championship, and should be right there again in 2012! geraldcarroll54@yahoo.com
