How does this shyt work out.... Does Kentucky put Randle on Kaminsky?

What's up with Cauley Stein is he coming back?

Also, does Kentucky have ANYONE under 6 ft 6? :damn:

Ive gotta say.... Kentucky looks pretty much unbeatable. only way they might lose is by misreading Wisco's playing style.

Baylor thought we were going to look to the perimeter and they got fukking destroyed

UK will have to shoot 65% from 3 like they did today or you will win.

Well I mean theyve found a way against 3 high calibur teams so far. Its not just Aaron Harrison's shooting

Nah, clearly is. They shoot 30 % from 3 on the year and in their 3 wins have been lights out. I think officiating (will they call it physical?) and 3 point defense is your two biggest concerns. You are big enough upfront (Hayes same size as Randle). Go win the title for the B1G :salute:

:ehh:

Backcourt could be an area of concern though

the only thing that gives me any confidence is the fact that we've had to take out 3 final four teams on the way to this game. We're battle tested and not easily rattled. I want Randle on Kaminsky.

Marcus Lee on Kaminsky? Marcus had a helluva game yesterday and looked 10x the player that Cauley-Stein is. Obviously a small sample size but he will be able to defend Kaminsky part of the time. UK has a lot of dudes to throw at him, Poythress and Dacari (sp?)

Out to the 3 point line?

True...but let's see if he can have the same type of game again single handedly winning it for Wisky. Who did UK throw at Payne when they played MSU? I don't really remember. I'm assuming it was Randle b/c he has great foot speed for his size, but Kaminsky is a taller/longer. UK needs the score to be 70+, Wisky needs the score to be in the 55-60 range.

I still dont think the rest of the country understands how Wisconsin plays. Our system is centered around Kaminski, but hes not the only capable scorer. In the last few games his play has been critical, partly due to matchups, partly because hes a fukking g :wow:

The storyline analysts are running with is - "this wisconsin team is interchangeable with Bo Ryan's past teams, with the exception of Frank Kaminski.":beli:
If Kentucky focuses too much on Kaminski theyll lose the game

I think Randle will be able to handle him. He doesn't back down at all and he's athletic enough to make up for the size difference. Just can't get in foul trouble.

But, real talk, Dakari did not do bad AT ALL when having to switch man to cover Stauksas last night. He didn't seem to really jump at pump fakes at all, because he should know his length will cover it, and he didn't really give up the inside either.

Now playing defense in the post, he's iffy. But I have been really surprised by his ability to cover his man on the perimeter.

Randle will have to guard Dekker or he will eat you up.
