Good games today...Someone said Towns had 8 blocks?!? Wow. I watched most of that game -- knew he had a few but didn't think he had that many. I thought Stein had a slightly bigger impact today just watching it unfold. Wish Towns got his named called more in the post. Come on Cal, that's what people want to see!! I think Towns will be A LOT better offensive player in the NBA eventually. His touch is very good (mid-range and at the line) and his hook shots with both hands have been money going back several weeks now. He's really perfected his hook shot, in particular...I'm with Hector -- I've been back and forth but I think I got Towns over Okafor too.

Terrible shooting game for Russell today. He's a good one but I definitely have him 3rd behind Towns & Okafor.

Anyone think Octavius Ellis (6'10" long/athletic 4-man, Cincy) or TJ McConnell (heady PG, ARZ) could be NBA role players?

Good game coming on now -- G-Town/Utah. Good chance to see Delon Wright..

The guy measured in only .5 inches shorter than James. I like how he carries his weight.

Jabril Trawick's a competitor. Dude can shoot and get to the basket...I like the look of quite a few G-Town players: Trawick, LJ Peak, Issac Copeland. How big is Joshua Smith? Dude's gotta be pushing 400 lbs..

Towns had a lot and I agree with what you are saying. TJ Mccolll can be a great role player but Rllis I don't. He stired up trouble against Kentucky.

I thought Ellis was under control for the most part--was playing hard--looked like Kentucky players overreacted to him. Was holding his own against KT's monster size before Stein caught him with the inadvertent knee in the back finishing a dunk. That took a little wind out of his sail...Dude reminds me of Keon Clark/Khem Birch..

Don't be surprised if Delon Wright winds up being a better player than D'Angelo Russell.

Not seeing the best of Delon Wright today by a longshot. Even still, you can tell he's got an NBA-ready game. I love this kid's game going back to last year..

Jerian Grant is one hell of a player, great on both ends and has all the neccesities of a pgs and sg. He will be good in the NBA

Wow, he just put himself in the top ten for the draft, if he somehow leads his team past Kentucky then he is top 4

I would, if Grant can get his team past the number #1 defense in the NCAA by really bringing it against them then he is top 4. To hell with Mudiay and Bobby Portis, this guy is the real deal.

in fairness to russell he still did other things to keep it close for a while despite not shooting well. Keep in mind russell plays on a weaker team and arizona was doubling him constantly
