Exact same as UC in past years. Grind out with the best of em, but just not the same all around game as great teams.

UNC and Maryland looked on a different level last night from UC. Very fun game to watch. Though I'm sure if UC played them UC's defense would slow the game down tremendously.
they have pro's bra

Two very talented teams. getting Paige back is huge for UNC.
Lsu has ben Simmons who will be the number 1 pick in the NBA draft next year and Lsu looks horrible, so I'm not sure what you are getting at.
Just because you have pros does not mean you have a good college basketball team Maryland and UNC are good because they play team basketball and have high level athletes just like we do, the parody in college basketball is at an all time high right now where no team looks like they are an over dominating force.
so much parody. it's gotta be that damn weird al.

I actually wish teams would play defense against UC the way Maryland and unc played.
Fast pace was encouraged by both teams on both ends of the floor. Lots of deflections and getting in the passing lanes. I think this UC team could match up much better than last season if they were forced to really speed it up on both ends but last 4 games, defenses have been really slowing the pace on us

I felt the exact same way. Different level of talent, they're long, athletic and future NBA players.

Maryland has actually played slowly on the season, slower than us. They have slow average possession length on both offense and defense.
It looked to me like UNC just didn't care, Maryland couldn't stop them from pushing. Of course Maryland couldn't hang on to the ball either. 28% turnover rate last night.
Trimble had one of the weirdest stat lines I've seen. 23 points, 12 assists, 8 turnovers.
Yea I'm an idiot (parity) lol
Lsu are young as hell. Ben is only 17. Come march or if they stayed for 3-4yrs they'll kick our current team ass. Probably a beat us in March this year
Could you imagine if Evans, jenifer, Moore, Scott and Clark was our starting 5? They all have talent but it takes timed building team chemistry no matter the talent. KY teams always start off slow then kick into gear by late February

And Ben will be a top 5 pick in the draft in June so your hypothetical 3-4 year stay is pointless. Teams have to learn how to win. At some point, your talent is not overwhelming compared to your opponent's. It takes time (sometimes more than a few months or 1 year) for a team to learn to win. We will see where LSU is in March.

Unlikely. Jonny Jones is an awful coach. They had 2 top 35 picks last year + Quarterman who is going to be 1st round pick and they were an 9 seed and lost in the first round.

LSU will make a lot of noise in March playing in the NIT.
Maybe so. And still will be making all the noise in June. I'm all for championships and going pro. NIT championship and 2-3 lottery picks better than making round of 32 with no NBA picks at all
