     Kentucky sets back to back records for most points scored under Calipari, 113 and 115, respectively.  This is the sharpest a UK team has looked this early in the Calipari era.  They’re averaging 92 points a game and they don’t press.

    This team looks special and they’re highly entertaining. Well deserving of the meaningless #1 ranking right now.  Still waiting to see what a healthy Duke team (and hopefully, with Harry Giles) will look like, but right now Kentucky easily looks like the most talented team in the country and they still have a lot of room for improvement

      Harry Giles will not play a single game for Duke.  Book it.

    Looking forward to the game with UCLA. UK looks incredible but they haven’t played a tournament team yet. MSU is the best they’ve played and right now they don’t look like a tournament team. Still beating any teams regularly by 30-40 points says they are a great team. Just waiting to see them play a real tournament team to get a true sense of how good they are.

     I believe UNC is the best team in the country, but Kentucky definitely looks good I like the pace they play at it remains to be seen if they can be efficent against a team that likes to slow down the game.. This is why I like UNC they play both styles very well.

    I love this team. This is the most fun I’ve had watching them since the John Wall days (yes, even more than the KAT and AD years). This team has so much potential and it seems like the issues our team usually has (no shooting, poor untimely decision making) isn’t an issue this season. We might run into some eventually when we start getting into the brunt of our schedule soon (UCLA, then Louisville and UNC within 5 days), but this team is looking really really good. I wouldn’t want to be an opposing backcourt having to be guarded by Fox, Briscoe, and Monk, or an opposing big guy having to box out Bam

     Kentucky has the most talent of any team in the country.  Duke would be as talented or more talented if all their guys were healthy, but they’re not.  Carolina might not have the overall talent of Kentucky, but I think they are the better team now.  Joel Berry might be the best PG in the country.  Meeks and Hicks are beasting in the post.  Justin Jackson has improved and might be playing like an NBA player now.  Kenny Williams has stepped in for Theo Pinson and has provided shooting and great defense.  Carolina doesn’t have the sure-fire NBA lotter picks like Kentucky, but they are experienced, tough and are playing with a chip on their shoulder after that heart-breaking shot by Vilanova.  That UK-Carolina game in Vegas should be a great one.

      That game is 4 days after we play Louisville too, so we’ll either be tired or hyped up. Either way, should be a great game; one of those games that makes you think it’s March
