Random College Basketball Thoughts: 2021-22

UK’s Wheeler look like he got hit by Ronnie Lott. Boy woozy

If I was to predict a final four today:

Arizona, Auburn, Purdue, Baylor

Cinderella potential - Iona
Best mid major team - Colo St

Purdue got styles, just gotta commit to Edey over Trevion. I feel like Ivey is more limited as a lead guard than some care to admit (or maybe Johnny Davis was just really good and made him look mid in comparison)

Mathurin vs Allen Flanigan for an entire game would be very fun!

Incredible slate tonight for SEC ball

Purdon’t is elite eight ceiling for life. They haven’t been to the FF in 40+ years

Got fucccccccked vs UVA, but they also didn't do some of the things necessary to adjust to Diakite kid killing em. Maybe they're just a mental midget team

Incredible slate tonight for SEC ball

UK or LSU? I think UK get em

UK or LSU? I think UK get em

I got money on them limiting Tshib presence on the boards, which to me is the only way they can really win. LSU got more shooters, got more contributors, they theoretically should be able to just run and play with some toughness and easily win in the X and Os

 

[Rigby.]

Problem is nikkas got dudes who are Tshibwe's frame but aint got the strength dude got. nikka is like Kofi Cockburn on roids (and shorter)

Kentucky might be in trouble at LSU.

LSU feels like they're closer to blowing this open than UK is to getting a real lead. They're pretty much just living off of dumb LSU plays (which LSU does have a ton of any given game....)

 

[Rigby.]

LSU isn't generating anything easy with UK's offense completely cold and Sahvir and Tshib off the court. That's not a good sign lol

 

[Rigby.]

I gotta put more respect on Grady and Mintz

 

[Rigby.]

I'm scared of what Alabama's O is gonna do to LSU. These dudes don't seem able to both protect the paint and not give up ass naked 3s off the drive and kick. Tyty's nice, but if he's routinely making you collapse, what is Davison and them other dudes gonna do?

I think I found that bozo @smitty22 Twitter account.

Don't think UK has a 3rd/bench guard that can run things. Feel like that's been the divider between the great and just okay Kentucky squads
