    Who from UofL would get minutes if they played for UK

    So all things the same with UK's roster today, who from UofL's roster could get minutes if they were added to UK's roster. That means you are picking a guy or guys from UK's roster that you are taking minutes away from.

    Harrell would get minutes from Lee, but I still think Lee plays. Harrell is big and strong but not very skilled. I saw that patented jump shot he's "displaying" this year and looked really shaky to me. He' rebounds better than several of UK's bigs but that could be deceiving as UK has two or three guys that rebound equally on the floor at any one time and Harrell is pretty much a one man show in the lane.

    I guess maybe Rozier but I can't think of who to pull minutes from.

    Jones would be buried on the bench.

    Blackshere... Don't see it.

      Montrezl Harrell and Terry Rozier would play a lot.

      Behind that I'm not sure. Chris Jones can play--he kept UofL in the game last year in the first half--but I think he'd probably be behind the guards we have. It would depend on which Blackshear you got; he's been so inconsistent in his career, much like Poythress or somebody like Darius Miller.

      But he gets a lot out of his role guys. Pitino always has. On a good college basketball team if you have two really high-level players and a bunch of other guys who buy in, you can win championships. UConn proved that last year.

          My first thought is Rozier plays too, until I tried to figure out who he takes minutes from. Booker? Aaron?

          Ulis > Jones all day long
          Andrew > Jones all day long

          Blackshear could get some time from Lyles but I don't see him getting many.

          Getting a lot out of role guys is fine and dandy. But UK is getting role player type plays out of high-level guys plus getting high level plays as well. The last two Championships UConn has taken they had guys step up at the tail end of the year and no one had time to figure out how to stop them. I don't see UofL having any guys that are diamonds in the rough that could get polished by next Saturday.. LOL

              I'm not sure I want to be too chesty in the run up to this game....

              Louisville is a good team and their pressure could give us problems.

                  The point of the exercise is not to chest bump. The point is to reconcile the UofL fan''s common view that "UofL's talent will win if the refs don't screw them with my view that UK will have to play poorly for UofL to win. The one way to look at it is with a fun little game of apples to apples.

                      Ok, sorry I misunderstood.

                          No worries. I understand the concern.
